Abstract

A crowded airspace involves large numbers of airplanes interacting with each other. In general, the dynamic behavior of the system is quite complex and conventional mathematical modeling is difficult. Here, a generic air traffic model is used to investigate the application of the notion of self-organized criticality. An example of a crowded two-dimensional airspace near an airport is studied. The results show that a crowded air traffic system exhibits the characteristics of self-organized criticality.
