Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this paper, guided by macroscopic cell transmission models, a cell transmission model of aircraft traffic flow on runways, taxiways and aprons was established to deduce and analyze the evolution rules of an airport surface traffic. The model was simulated by adopting data from a large domestic airport in China. The relationship between three parameters of traffic flow on taxiways was evaluated, and the airport surface traffic flow characteristics were analyzed. Moreover, this paper macroscopically analyzed the characteristics of spatial–temporal distribution of airport surface recurrent and non-recurrent traffic congestion. Simulation results showed that arrival rates and pushback rates had significant influence on the formation and dissipation of recurrent traffic congestion in different phases of the surface aircraft traffic flow. When the arrival rate was 0.3 aircraft/minute and the pushback rate was 0.23 aircraft/minute, the speed of aircraft on taxiways was high, the density and flow were large, and the aircraft had a high degree of obstacle-free taxiing. At this time, the airport ran smoothly and the surface network operation efficiency was high. Compared with the arrival rate, the outward expansion trend of each parameter was more obvious when the pushback rate changed. Parallel taxiways are less robust than apron taxiways and connect taxiways.
