Connectivity analysis of transshipments at a cargo hub airport

The paper investigates the interconnectivity of airfreight networks as temporal concentrations at airport. The connectivity of freight transshipments depends on both the quality of connections at hub airports and the quality of indirect flights compared to direct flights. Here connectivity of flight...

Description
Summary:The paper investigates the interconnectivity of airfreight networks as temporal concentrations at airport. The connectivity of freight transshipments depends on both the quality of connections at hub airports and the quality of indirect flights compared to direct flights. Here connectivity of flight schedules is analyzed using a temporal wave structure to estimate the degrees of connectivity and the quality of connectivity. ► This paper investigate the connectivity of airfreight networks of an airport. ► This paper analyze the connectivity of flight schedules using a temporal wave-system structure. ► The waiting time for the next available flights was identified as a determining factor in the quality of connectivity.
