Abstract

While numerous Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) and next-generation Vertical Take-off and Landing (VTOL) vehicle projects are being developed, the potential of their introduction within an urban environment has yet to be understood and applied. Thus, an Urban Air Mobility (UAM) extension for the transport simulation, MATSim, is being utilized on the test case of Sioux Falls. The results provide an outlook on the transport performance of UAM with varying parameters. Within the limitations of the current simulation, UAM access/egress and process times prove to be highly influential on passenger adoption.
