Abstract This paper examines the ways of landing aircraft with the least waiting time in time windows under critical conditions, such as the closest time of landing to the target times for each aircraft or the minimum time of landing the planes. Therefore, we face with two conflict objectives, namely minimizing the total cost of the deviation from the target times and minimizing the completion time of the landing sequence. To solve such a problem, we use a fuzzy programming approach and an estimator for landing the sequence of planes. The results are compared with actual landings.
Highlights ► A multi-objective model is developed for sequencing aircraft landings. ► It finds the best ways of landing aircrafts with the least waiting time in time windows and overall minimum time. ► It provides worked examples of the approach.
