An Object-Oriented Approach to a Scenario-Based System Dynamics Fleet Model
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
Expanding the current capabilities of a scenario-based system dynamics fleet model is paramount in order to incorporate wider ranging boundary conditions for the assessment of the impact of future aircraft technologies at a global aircraft fleet level. These expanded capabilities are necessary in order to better assess the impact of novel aircraft technologies and ambitious environmental policies in order to mitigate the environmental impact of the civil air transport industry. However, this further expansion of capabilities would not be possible without a paradigm shift in the way the current fleet model is implemented, as the increased complexity would make the fleet modeling an extremely inefficient and daunting task. An object-oriented approach to address the current limitations of the current system dynamics fleet model as well as the incorporation of future expanded capabilities of the new fleet model are presented.
