Abstract: This paper describes the development of a runway allocation optimisation model to be used for airport strategic planning. It optimises the allocation of flights to runways on an annual basis, with respect to delay, noise and safety. The multi-objective optimisation is subject to a number of constraints, related to operational procedures, runway capacity and weather conditions. To reach a final non-dominated solution for the multi-objective problem, an interactive optimisation method has been implemented. This has resulted in a very convenient and easy-to-use optimisation procedure. Although the model has to be extended to handle more complex operational situations, the results with respect to the reduction of aircraft noise annoyance and total third-party risk are promising.
