Obstacle Limitation Surface (OLS) is conceptual surface establishing the airspace around aerodromes to be maintained from obstacles to ensure safe aircraft operations. Despite advances in the technologies for aircraft, navigation systems and the development of new flight procedures, the criteria defining OLS have not been amended since its initial establishment, resulting in the overestimation of areas for height restriction. As there were requests to examine OLS at the 12th Air Navigation Conference and the 38th ICAO Assembly, the research on the OLS revision began in earnest and ICAO has proposed Obstacle Free Surface (OFS) and Obstacle Evaluation Surface (OES) as an alternative of the existing OLS. OFS is surfaces where obstacles shall not be permitted, and OES is ones where obstacles be evaluated with an aeronautical study and could be permitted under some conditions. The purpose of this study is to preemptively assess the efficiency and safety of OFS and OES by applying them to the second runway (15L/33R) of Incheon International Airport. The results show that OFS and OES are capable of serving the instrument flight procedure safely with a smaller obstacle clearance area compared to the existing OLS.

In order to predict low-level wind shear at Incheon International Airport (RKSI), a Low-Level Wind Shear prediction system (KMAP-LLWS) along the runway take-off and landing route at RKSI was established using Korea Meteorological Administration Post-Processing (KMAP). For the performance evaluation, the case of low-level wind shear cases calculated from Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) from July 2021 to June 2022 was used. As a result of verification using the performance evaluation index, POD, FAR, CSI, and TSS were 0.5, 0.85, 0.13, and 0.34, respectively, and the prediction performance was improved by POD, CSI, and TSS compared to the Low-Level Wind Shear prediction system (LDPS-LLWS) calculated using the Korea Meteorological Administration's Local Data Assimilation and Prediction System (LDAPS). This means that the use of high-resolution numerical models improves the predictability of wind changes. In addition, to improve the high FAR of KMAP-LLWS, the threshold for low-level wind shear strength was adjusted. As a result, the most effective low-level wind shear threshold at 8.5 knot/100 ft was derived. This study suggests that it is possible to predict and respond to low-level wind shear at RKSI. In addition, it will be possible to predict low-level wind shear at other airports without wind shear observation equipment by applying the KMAP-LLWS.

Asphalt pavements of the airport in service were monitored to construct new runway and taxiway and longitudinal cracks were found on the pavements. The sources of the longitudinal cracks were the low density which was caused by the longitudinal cold joint with asphalt Pavement constructions and the excessive loads of aircraft. Therefore, the echelon paving method using a 12m-wide screed finisher was used to eliminate longitudinal cracks. When the echelon paving is used, construction of the longitudinal joint is changed so that the compaction of the unconfined edge of the first lane is delayed until the second lane is placed. In conclusion, the use of this construction method results in the density of the longitudinal joint being equal to that of the adjacent mat.

Recently the use of steel fibers has been increased in flexural members and columns of concrete structures subjected to cyclic loadings; such as bridge decks, highway roads, runway of airport, buildings, etc.. However only a few experimental tests have been carried out under fatigue loading. In the present study, the reinforced concrete beams with 1% and 2% steel fiber volume fraction are investigated with and without stirrups. It has been found that in fatigue tests, the failure of the beam is usually due to breaking of fibers rather than fiber pull-out. A comparison of experiments and numerical analysis using the nonlinear F.E.M. program (ADINA) is also presented herein.

Air Traffic Control Tower is one of the most important units in Airport operation. It provides services related to safe and efficient traffic flows that control aircraft on the ground maneuvering area and terminal airspace. Also It is responsible for managing of ground operators. The major objective of this study is to evaluates relative efficiency of ATC towers in Domestic airports using data envelopment analysis so that it helps the ATC authority to improve the tower efficiency, to decide the level of benchmarking target and to establish the best alternative. The results of this study are the following; First, as a result of analysis for the potential improvement, it has analysed that the common problems of each ATC tower are to increase its number of flight and to reduce its number of runway followed by airside area, the number of air traffic controller and the number of stand. Second, it has shown that the each tower in RKPC(8), RKPT(5), RKPK(l) and RKSS(l) are used as the reference set. Especially, the tower in RKPC analyzed as a relatively efficient unit is the most main target for the towers in RKTU, RKTH, RKPS and RKTY to do bench marking and to set up the strategy for improving relative efficiency of the tower. Third, tower is actually not able to control the input and output data in this study except the number of controller, so that ATC authority is recommended to improve inefficiency of the towers through handling the number of controller.

국내에서는 기후변화로 인해 집중호우 및 태풍 발생이 증가하고 있으며, 이는 자연재해의 발생뿐만 아니라 차량 및 항공 운항의 어려움을 야기한다. 차량 및 항공 운항의 안정성 확보를 위해서는 노면의 마찰저항을 유지하는 것이 중요한데, 강수로 인해 형성되는 수막두께는 노면의 마찰저항을 감소시키므로 포장설계시 고려해야 할 주요소이다. 특히, 물적/인적 이동이 많은 공항은 기상조건에 더욱 취약하며, 기후변화로 인한 강수특성 변화로 활주로의 수막두께 증가 및 운항의 차질이 우려되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거 및 미래 강우조건에 따라 활주로 노면의 수막두께를 산정하고, 기후변화에 따른 수막두께의 변화를 평가하고자 한다. 과거 관측 및 기후변화 시나리오를 이용하여 강우자료를 생산하였고, 이를 강우-유출 모형의 강우 입력 자료로 활용하였다. 과거 강우자료는 인천지점의 기상청 관측자료를 수집하였으며, AR5 RCP 시나리오(RCP4.5, RCP8.5) 기반의 적정 GCMs 결과를 활용하여 미래 강우시나리오를 산정하였다. 강우의 재현기간 및 지속시간에 따른 수막두께의 변화를 분석하기 위해 인천지역의 과거 및 미래 확률강우량을 산정하였다. 수막두께를 산정하기 위해 활주로 폭, 경사 등 활주로 제원을 수집하고, 유출 모형의 입력자료를 구축하였다. 과거 및 미래 확률강우량을 SWMM 모형에 적용하여 유출량을 산정하였으며, 유속과 흐름폭으로 나누어 활주로의 수막두께를 산정하였다. 산정결과, 강우량이 증가함에 따라 수막두께는 증가하고, 강우의 지속시간이 증가함에 따라서는 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다. 미래의 경우, 기후변화의 영향에 따라 강수량이 증가하여 수막두께가 과거에 비해 증가하였다.

Master plan plans for new airports should estimate the approximate scale of the airside's moorings and terminals. The size of the pavilion can be determined by complex factors such as the operating hours of the operating company, the frequency of operation, and the aircraft class. Among them, the number of flights is calculated using the Horon-jeff equation because of the relationship between the number of flights and the time occupied by the mains. Since this estimation formula is a simplified formula, it is necessary to verify the appropriateness of the method of estimating the scale and to suggest improvement directions. Therefore, in this study, we propose a method of estimating the size of the western flags by investigating and analyzing the main airports of overseas airports to determine whether the application of the Horon-jeff formula is appropriate.

An airline should consider the number of seats or size of aircraft, when it composes fleet or selects a type of aircraft for some routes. There are two major factors considered for this choice problem under the assumption that the objectives of an airline is a profit maximization: the operating cost and revenue from the aircraft operated. This research tries to solve the problem of aircraft size selection by airline. The study applies four steps to get optimal choice of aircraft size: (1) cost analysis for the relationship between airline operation cost and aircraft size: (2) market share and revenue analysis: (3) flight segment-level analysis, based on the derived cost, demand and revenue functions: and (4) network-level analysis to see how airlines make choice of aircraft size systematically at a network level. An airline can accommodate the increasing air travel demand by either increasing operation frequency, or increasing aircraft size that is represented by seat capacity, or both. Airport runway capacity and productivity depend on the size of aircraft used at airport. This paper presents the understanding of how airlines make decisions on the size of aircraft to operate, how they will adjust their choices when airport capacity is constrained, and how public regulation such as policy for landing fees could influence airlines' aircraft choice.

The new airports apply the systematic runway foundation construction to build the high quality runways in order to take the leading position to win future aerial demands and stay ahead of competitors. This study is intended to supplement the weakness of existing standard compaction test to minimize residual settlement of lower weak foundation during operation of passenger berthage. The fill material was sampled from 4 construction sites using the fill material with diameter of 100mm or less, and the standard compacting test (KS F 2312), large circular mold compacting test, and water-replacement field density test (ASTM D 5030) were conducted. The regression analysis of correlation of the field density test and the standard indoor compaction test showed the unreliable value at P-value of 0.05, and the regression analysis of the field density test and the large indoor compaction test showed the high correlation with R value of 0.8878. It is judged that the construction of overall uniform quality can be assured as the site condition is truly reflected only if the compacting test method is selected in consideration of maximum size of fill material when evaluating the maximum dry density used in design and construction.
