Simulation Research on Smoke Containment in Large Space: Case Study of the Improvement Project of Taoyuan International Airport, Terminal 1

Queuing analysis on check-in counter in airport is required to accommodate the passenger processing facilities, such as check-in service. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of a queuing system at check-in facilities in 2nd passenger terminal Lombok Praya International Airport in 2016 and 2036. This analysis is done by determining parameters of the queues at every check-in counter through simulations on Viswalk. Before running the simulation, the model of airport terminal must be created first. Queuing simulation starts with the traffic demand forecasting of domestic departure passenger for the next 20 years. To determine the optimal number of check-in counters, an iteration of various number is performed. Check-in services time data were adopted from previous study which became an input of the simulation using two different scenarios. The expected output are the queuing parameter and the distribution of passenger service time at each check-in counter.

The Relationship

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of physical and social servicescapes on cognitive and affective satisfaction, as well as airport image, with gender as a moderating effect between variables. A total of 283 airport users were surveyed, and structural equation modeling was used to investigate the relationships between variables. The results showed that only physical servicescape had a significant effect on cognitive and affective satisfaction, and affective satisfaction had a significant effect on airport image. In addition, the gender differences indicated a significant effect between the physical servicescape and cognitive satisfaction. This study is distinct in that it is the first attempt to verify the relationship between airport physical servicescape, social servicescape, airport users’ cognitive and affective satisfaction, and airport image on gender differences.

High Level

Employees and employers are facing issues in work life balance. It has become a difficult domain now, because the work needs have increased due to an increase in work pressure and complexities in handling the technology. As there are drastic changes in the rules and regulations in the work scenario of the aviation industry, it makes work life balance of employees difficult and set more hurdles. Hence there are many distractions and imbalances in the life of women employees in the aviation industry working across all levels. This work pressure is creating high level of hurdles in maintaining a harmonious job and family life, especially for female aviation employees. Data is collected from 50 female crew members working at Cochin International Airport. The objective of this study is to analyze the work life balance of working females of Cochin International Airport and its influence on their personal and specialized lives. The result of the study shows that the management should frame certain policies which will help employees to have the balance among their personal and expert lives.
