Overview (resum en anglès):
The main objective of this project has been the development of a computational model using Python code to simulate and graph the concept of balanced field length, a key factor in aircraft takeoff operations. Based on this model, an exhaustive analysis of the factors, parameters, and variables that influence the required runway length to ensure the safety of takeoff operations has been conducted, providing a deeper understanding of the aspects that should be prioritized in the design of airport runways.

The methodology employed combines fundamental concepts from disciplines such as flight mechanics, aerodynamics, and applied physics. Through simulation, various operational scenarios have been evaluated, allowing the quantification of the impact of different variables, such as aircraft weight, external temperature, airport altitude, adverse weather conditions like rain, and the selection of the design aircraft. These simulations have generated graphical curves representing the behavior of the balanced field length in relation to each of these factors.

The results obtained demonstrate the feasibility of using the model to graphically represent the balanced field length criteria, showing that variables such as aircraft weight, temperature, airport elevation, and runway conditions (wet or dry) are the factors that most influence the required runway length. In particular, the study emphasizes the importance of appropriately selecting the design aircraft, as this factor has a direct impact on runway length. Furthermore, the inclusion of clearways and stopways is shown to be an effective strategy for providing the additional necessary space without physically extending the runway, contributing to design optimization and enhancing operational safety.

This analysis provides a solid foundation for future research and applications in the field of airport runway design, highlighting the usefulness of computational tools in the planning, optimization, and safety of aviation infrastructure.
