Item Open Access Air traffic management accident risk, part 1: the limits of realistic modelling(Cranfield University, 2005-06-27T13:40:21Z) Brooker, PeterThe prime goal of the Air Traffic Management (ATM) system is to control accident risk. Some key questions are posed, including: What do design safety targets really mean and imply for risk modelling? In what circumstances can future accident risk really be modelled with sufficient precision? If risk cannot be estimated with precision, then how is safety to be assured with traffic growth and operational/technical changes? This paper endeavours to answer these questions by an analysis of the nature of accidents, causal factors and practical collision risk modelling. The main theme is how best to combine sound safety evidence and real world hazard analysis in a coherent and systematic framework.Item Open Access Verification of the capacity of Malpensa Airport: Final report(Cranfield University, College of Aeronautics, 2000-07) Air Transport GroupThe purpose of this study is twofold. First, to assess the capacity of Malpensa airport taking into account the impact of environmental measures introduced by the Italian Government Environmental Decree of 13th December 1999.
