Ground-level aircraft operations as a measure of sustainable airport efficiency: A weight-restricted DEA approach

摘要: Abstract Ground-level aircraft operations and landing take-off cycle account for the vast majority of an airport’s total emission. Among other factors, planning skills are critical in minimizing emissions produced fuel burn through reducing taxi times during operations. This study examines sustainable efficiencies busiest European airports considering their success cycles argues (i) emission per is a good proxy ground-level operation provides more practical results than amount annual emission, (ii) weight restriction procedure necessary Data Envelopment Analysis applications to ensure furnishing impact criteria on overall efficiency. A weight-restricted model was constructed, both physical each airport were examined nine years between 2010 2018. combinative Analytic Hierarchy Process – Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation approach used define weights, new modified proposed include these weights Analysis. Findings proved necessity when one would examine The Malmquist Productivity Index showed great shift output production; however, improvements reduce have lagged behind production.
