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 ...
In this paper, we consider the gate assignment for a large airline at its hub airport. It is considered to be a highly complex problem with the possibility of application in both planning as well as operations mode. There are various considerations that ar ...
We consider the problem of assigning gates to a large airline at its hub airport in both planning and operations mode. The first objective in planning mode assigns airport gates for a given passenger flow data and pedestrian distances between the gates, su ...
Uncertainty Feature Optimization is a framework to cope with optimization problems due to noisy data, using an implicit characterazation of the noise. The Aircraft Scheduling Problem (ASP) is a particular case of such problems, where disruptions randomly p ...
[1] During the last 5 years, information on the regional tropospheric ozone levels over the eastern Mediterranean has become available but was confined to measurements at ground level. Here available information is expanded with measurements at two more ru ...
This thesis presents an efficient and extensible numerical software framework for real-time model-based control. We are motivated by complex and challenging mechatronic applications spanning from flight control of fixed-wing aircraft and thrust vector cont ...
This study estimates the potential benefits of continuous descents for more than 480,000 flights to 25 major airports in the National Airspace System. While reduced fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are expected for these procedures, the benefi ...
