Abstract

The APACHE project proposes a new approach to assess European ATM performance based on simulation, optimization and performance assessment tools that will be able to capture the complex interdependencies between KPAs at different modelling scales. This document is the baseline for the Project and defines the operational context which encompasses the evaluation studies that will be carried out in the Project. The baseline and SESAR 2020 target operations definition within the context of APACHE will permit to settle the scope of the project and trace it within the context of the SESAR programme. This traceability is carried out as per SESAR solutions to be assessed, that could be assessed or that enable other solutions to be assessed within the Project.

Abstract

This report is the Deliverable 2.1 R-WAKE System Specification Document, which provides the compilation of high-levelR-Wake requirements, resulting from Task 2.1 activities. More specifically, this document contains:¿An analysis of the state-of-the-art in wake vortex simulation and prediction; wake vortex separation standards and methodologies; weather data provision simulation and prediction; trajectory based operations; and methodologies for safety and robustness analysis.¿The R-Wake project detailed motivation, objectives and proposed methodology..¿The R-Wake system highlevel specification,which isone of the main contributions of this Project, to enable the realisation of several simulations and assessments of the eventual impacts of wake vortex phenomena in the en-route phase of flight.

Abstract

The primary objective of ComplexityCosts is to better understand ATM network performance trade-offs for different stakeholder investment mechanisms under certain disruptions. In this report, software implementation of the ComplexityCosts model is reported. Classes, methods and interface functions are presented with practical examples. Previous deliverables on the ComplexityCosts sub-models on passengers and traffic, mechanisms and disturbances, are updated.
