dc.description.abstract | The baggage unloading system is an important equipment for airport operations. Its main purpose is to accurately send baggage to the aircraft and not delay the departure time of each flight, making airport operations smoother. With the rise of low-cost airlines and the increase of red-eye flights, a domestic airport operator has based its ever-increasing number of passengers. Updated to a turntable-type baggage unloading dial to enhance the effectiveness of ground crew operations. In practice, when the baggage unloading carousel encounters a sudden failure, it is not the method of optimizing the system. It still adjusts its schedule with manual experience. It is not only difficult to adjust its flight plan within a short time, but also it is easier to have the lack of overall planning and efficiency results in increased costs and wasted airport resources. Therefore, how to effectively adjust the assignment of the baggage unloading carousel in a short period of time so that the disturbance status can be restored to normal as soon as possible, so that it is an important issue for the flight to accurately fly according to schedule schedules and whether the ground crew of the airline is operating normally.
In this study, a method of mathematical planning is used to solve the problems about airport passenger baggage unloading carousel malfunctions abruptly that failures to minimize the disturbance time of all assigned flights and the overlapping time of flight operations. In terms of the solutions of problems, the proposed model is characterized as NP-hard. Moreover, In order to address the large scale problem efficiently, a genetic algorithm, coupled with a 2-OPT local search, is developed. Besides that, we test the practicability of the model by using a case study including practical information from an international airport in Taiwan to evaluate the model and the heuristic algorithm. This study is expected to provide airport decision makers a useful method to immediately and effectively adjust the assignment between flights and baggage unloading carousels when the outbound passenger baggage unloading carousel fails. This result is able to be used as a reference for relevant researches in the academia. | en_US |
