Runway capacity is commonly referred to as the maximum hourly throughput the airport runway system is capable to sustain during periods of high demand. Evaluating runway capacity is of interest for airport operators in that it poses a critical performance measure and bottleneck, often having a substantial impact on and even limiting overall airfield capacity. In this webinar, we will summarize fundamental concepts of runway capacity and factors influencing throughput. A structured overview and classification will give insight into the available methods for evaluation and their applications and use cases. As some of these methods are based on demand with varying degrees of randomization, results and the uncertainty therein need to be interpreted in statistical sense. A wide-spread approach to uncertainty is referred to as Monte Carlo method and will be explained. Particular attention will be paid to validating the throughput and evaluating the capacity for a given demand distribution and Level of Service, which are in practice often the relevant questions at hand. The solution is an approach to the evaluation of practical runway capacity. Examples will illustrate the different concepts and a practical approach to runway capacity.
