ANTOINE SALGAS' THESIS ON MULTIDISCIPLINARY MODELLING OF AIR TRANSPORT DECARBONISATION SCENARIOS

He has developed and integrated cost models to assess the economic impact of certain decarbonization measures, such as the use of sustainable aviation fuels or modified-performance aircraft.

Following a research stay at TU Delft, he also set up an open-source database with researcher Junzi Sun, estimating the geographical distribution of air traffic and associated emissions (https://journals.open.tudelft.nl/joas/article/view/7201). A specific tool, AeroSCOPE, has been developed to explore and visualise this database. The ultimate aim of this work is to optimise the technical and economic performance of different regional or global scenarios on the AeroMAPS platform.

Antoine is supervised by Gilles Lafforgue from Toulouse Business School and Scott Delbecq and Thomas Planès from ISAE-SUPAERO. The thesis is funded by ISAE-SUPAERO and the Occitanie Region
