RRT*-Based Algorithm for Trajectory Planning Considering Probabilistic Weather Forecasts

Maryam Kamgarpour, Eduardo Andres Enderiz

Convective weather and its inherent uncertainty constitute one of the major challenges in the air traffic management (ATM) system, entailing both safety hazards and economic losses. In the present work, we propose a stochastic algorithm for trajectory plan ...

Lake Imaging and Monitoring Aerial Drone

David Andrew Barry, Ludovic Zulliger, Nawaaz Sidharth Gujja Shaik, Jean-Luc Liardon, Lukas Oliver Hostettler, Karl Johannes Kangur

We describe the development of a BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line-Of-Sight) model aircraft (UAV). The broad design requirements included (i) fuselage capable of accommodating an imaging package or other instrumentation, (ii) suitability for over-lake BVLOS author ...

The safety challenge of river diversion during construction of dams

Anton Schleiss

The appropriate design of a river diversion system during construction of dam is an essential task since dramatic consequences in view of cost and time overrun may be involved. After a short outline of the different methods of river diversion and its main ...

Assessment of a metamaterial-inspired active acoustic liner concept for application to aircraft engine noise reduction

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Sami Driss Karkar, Gaël Matten

Acoustic liners are a widespread solution for noise mitigation at aircraft engine level, thanks to lightweight and relatively small dimensions for integration within nacelles. Although conventional liners might be designed to target multiple tonal frequenc ...

Multiphase mixed-integer optimal control framework for aircraft conflict avoidance

Maryam Kamgarpour

This paper formulates the problem of aircraft conflict avoidance as a multiphase mixed-integer optimal control problem. In order to find optimal maneuvers, accurate models of aircraft nonlinear dynamics and flight envelop constraints are used. Wind forecas ...

Aeroelastic effects of mistuning and coupling in turbomachinery bladings

Gerhard Kahl

A numerical method has been developed to study the effects of structural mistuning on the aeroelastic behaviour of turbomachinery cascades. The specific objectives of the work presented here were the following: A method was to be developed that can assess ...
