Full textAbstract:
On 3 March 2009, the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) approved international standards, which stipulate that regulations on flight and duty time limitations must be based on 'scientific principles and knowledge'. These standards became effective on 19 November 2009 and remain applicable. On 13 June 2011, the Council adopted international standards for Fatigue Risk Management Systems (FRMS) with a view to better addressing crew fatigue, which is considered a key contributor to aircraft accidents. The new standards, which would amend current standards of ICAO Annex 6 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation - Operation of Aircraft Part I - International Operations - Aeroplanes came into effect on 30 October 2011 and become applicable on 15 December 2011. Global standards on limitations applicable to crew duty hours have gradually become obsolete and inapplicable in the face of varying operational contexts that require globally harmonized management systems containing standards and guidance material. In July 2011, ICAO, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations (IFALPA) issued guidance for operators that provide air operators with information for implementing an FRMS that is consistent with applicable standards and recommended practices (SARPs) of ICAO. Also in existence, hand in hand with this guidance, is the Regulator's Manual that guides regulators through the FRMS process. Both these documents are accessible through the ICAO website. On 30 and 31 August 2011, ICAO held an FRMS Symposium where a unique gathering of more than 500 representatives from government, the air transport industry and the scientific community held important discussions that resulted in several conclusions. Both the regulatory regime and the discussions in the Symposium bring to bear important issues of air crew integrity and their responsibility to disclose vital information in terms of their fitness to pilot a flight as well as their continuing health. This article, written from the perspective of the crew with focus on the technical crew, discusses their liability for non-disclosure of critical information of a pre-existing medical condition and concludes by asking compelling questions to ensure safety of flight.

INTRODUCTION: There is a current belief in aviation suggesting that aerobic training may reduce G-tolerance due to potential negative impacts on arterial pressure response. Studies indicate that increasing maximal aerobic capacity (<mml:math id="ie1" display="inline"><mml:mrow><mml:mover><mml:mtext>V</mml:mtext><mml:mo>˙</mml:mo></mml:mover></mml:mrow></mml:math>o2 max) through aerobic training does not hinder G-tolerance. Moreover, sustained centrifuge training programs revealed no instances where excessive aerobic exercise compromised a trainee’s ability to complete target profiles. The purpose of this review article is to examine the current research in the hope of establishing the need for routine <mml:math id="ie2" display="inline"><mml:mrow><mml:mover><mml:mtext>V</mml:mtext><mml:mo>˙</mml:mo></mml:mover></mml:mrow></mml:math>o2-max testing in air force pilot protocols.METHODS: A systematic search of electronic databases including Google Scholar, PubMed, the Aerospace Medical Association, and Military Medicine was conducted. Keywords related to “human performance,” “Air Force fighter pilots,” “aerobic function,” and “maximal aerobic capacity” were used in various combinations. Articles addressing exercise physiology, G-tolerance, physical training, and fighter pilot maneuvers related to human performance were considered. No primary data collection involving human subjects was conducted; therefore, ethical approval was not required.RESULTS: The <mml:math id="ie3" display="inline"><mml:mrow><mml:mover><mml:mtext>V</mml:mtext><mml:mo>˙</mml:mo></mml:mover></mml:mrow></mml:math>o2-max test provides essential information regarding a pilot’s ability to handle increased Gz-load.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the popularity of Rapid Rhino packs, there are no clear guidelines regarding the volume of air to be inflated when used in the management of epistaxis. The manufacturers suggest that subjective assessment by pilot cuff palpation is used to guide inflation. However, studies have clearly demonstrated that clinicians are poor at judging balloon pressure by pilot cuff palpation when used in other settings. Our objective was to investigate the relationship between the volume of air inflated and the resultant intra-nasal pressure generated by nasal balloon packing. Twelve healthy subjects were packed with 5.5 cm Rapid Rhino packs, which were connected to a manometer and 20 ml syringe via a 3-way tap in a closed circuit. Increments of 2.5 mls of air were inflated and the resultant intra-nasal pack pressure was measured. There appeared to be a linear relationship between increasing volume and pack pressure. However, between individuals, there was a large variation in the intra-nasal pack pressure produced for a given fixed volume of air inflated. This is presumably due to variations in nasal anatomy. It may be that a manometer-measured, pressure guided nasal pack inflation technique would represent best practice, especially for less experienced staff.

Abstract The working pressure of the start-up compressed air pilot solenoid valve is 40bar when it starts, it is an important part of the emergency diesel air start system of nuclear power plants. Since the operation of the nuclear power plant, it has been found that the start-up compressed air pilot solenoid valve has more frequent failures, the failure modes are air leaks and jams. The start-up compressed air pilot solenoid valve are all solenoid valves of the same type, the manufacturer is MABO, the model is MV320V DN20 G34 NC. Once the start-up compressed air pilot solenoid valve fails, it will affect the reliability and availability of the diesel engine’s start-up air system, directly cause the diesel engine to fail to start. Through a series of tests, the jamming and air leakage failures in the use of the start-up compressed air pilot solenoid valve are tested and analyzed. The reasons for the frequent air leakage and jamming of the starting compressed air pilot solenoid valve are determined, effective improvement plans are proposed, such as changing to another type of grease, adding the solenoid spool guide ring and return spring, improving the spool structure, increasing the diameter of the pilot valve and coil power, etc.. After analysis and demonstration, it is further clarified that the reasons for the leakage and jamming of the pilot solenoid valve are clear, the improvement plan is effective. The results show that the improved program obtained through research has laid a foundation for solving the problem of frequent leakage and jamming of the pilot solenoid valve.

In the process of air combat implementation, the real-time command and guidance of air pilot is the key element of air combat irreplaceable. In this paper, a multi-aircraft air combat command and guidance target allocation model is established based on the actual air combat situation. The unbalanced target allocation problem of multi-aircraft air combat command and guidance is studied by combining Hungarian algorithm and evolutionary Hungarian algorithm. Finally, two cases of increasing aircraft number and decreasing aircraft number are simulated and studied. Simulation results show that the method can shorten the computation time and ensure the overall command and guidance advantages of the target allocation scheme effectively.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar a altura total, de 30 árvores em um plantio de Pinus taeda, com apoio de tecnologias de geoprocessamento. Obteve-se a alturas por meio de aerolevantamento e também com o método convencional (com hipsômetro), avaliando estatisticamente os resultados. Foram adquiridas imagens com Aeronave Remotamente Pilotada (ARP), utilizando pontos de controle, que serviram para a relação das coordenadas da imagem com as do terreno. A geração do Modelo Digital do Terreno (MDT), foi realizada por meio de topografia convencional, fornecendo dados para a planialtimetria local, ao longo do alinhamento do plantio. Para obtenção das alturas, aplicou-se a subtração entre as altitudes do MDS e do MDT, sendo consideradas como tratamento 1. Com hipsômetro, foram mensuradas as alturas das mesmas árvores, sendo consideradas como tratamento 2 e posteriormente foi aplicado teste t, para a comparação entre as médias, usando significância estatística de 5% de probabilidade. Foi observada a diferença média de 4,05%, entre tratamentos, fato que orienta a viabilidade da metodologia através do uso de imagens obtidas por ARP, havendo diferença estatística significativa entre diferentes formas de obtenção dos dados. Porém, verificou-se a maior precisão e menor dispersão, naqueles dados coletados com metodologia apoiada por imagem, sendo necessário destacar que o hipsômetro, é um método indireto de medição, que apresentar sub ou superestimado das alturas.Palavras-chave: aerolevantamento; mensuração florestal; modelo digital de terreno; modelo digital de superfície. DETERMINATION OF HEIGHT In Pinus taeda L. USING UNCONSCIOUS AIR VEHICLE ABSTRACT: The objective of this work was to determine the total height of 30 trees in a plantation of Pinus taeda, with the support of geoprocessing technologies. Height was obtained by means of aerial survey and also with the conventional method (with hypsometer), statistically evaluating the results. Images were obtained with Remotely Pilot Aircraft (ARP), using control points, which served to relate the coordinates of the image with those of the terrain. The generation of the Digital Terrain Model (TDM) was performed by means of conventional topography, providing data for local planialtimetry along the alignment of the plantation. In order to obtain the heights, the subtraction was applied between the MDS and MDT altitudes, being considered as treatment 1. With a hypsometer, the heights of the same trees were measured, being considered as treatment 2 and later t-test was applied for the comparison between means, using statistical significance of 5% probability. The mean difference of 4.05% between treatments was observed. This fact guides the viability of the methodology through the use of ARP images, and there is a statistically significant difference between different ways of obtaining the data. However, it was verified the greater precision and less dispersion, in those data collected with methodology supported by image, being necessary to emphasize that the hypsometer, is an indirect method of measurement, that presents sub or overestimated of the heights.Keywords: aerial survey; forest mensuration; digital terrain model; digital surface model.

Full textAbstract:
DVOR (Doppler VHF Omnidirectional Range) equipment is used by pilots as a navigation aid when the plane is about to land at the destination airport. DVOR is an air navigation equipment to guide aircraft in order to land perfectly at the destination airport, where the equipment functions to provide information in the form of azimuth, bearing in the frequency range of 108 MHz - 118 MHz using the Doppler effect. If the DVOR equipment in the form of a remote control system unit (RSCU) is damaged, it will prevent the aircraft from landing because there is no guide that can be used by the pilot. In this study, we succeeded in analyzing the damage to the remote control system unit on DVOR equipment by resetting the radio link on the antenna and on the laptop so that it can function as expected.

Full textAbstract:
The goal of this thesis is to improve pilot understanding of the Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) by changing the Traffic Situation Display (TSD). This is supported by two objectives.
The first objective is to create an integrated, realistic air traffic environment. This serves as an experimental platform for testing and evaluating future TCAS TSDs. The simulator environment includes a desktop flight simulator, background air traffic simulator, and intruder aircraft. The intruder aircraft uses seven dimensional waypoints to robustly follow trajectories and cause specific resolution advisories.
Second, the relative benefits of, and potential concerns with, new TCAS TSDs are explored using a structured, iterative design process with subject matter ex- perts (SMEs). Incremental changes to the TSD were implemented into the simulator environment. SMEs evaluated the displays and potential points of confusion were identified.
Several display features are discussed and implemented for future evaluations. These include boundary lines of TCAS variables depicted on the TSD and on a vertical situation display, speed lines which vary with the TCAS estimate of time to closest point of approach, and a prediction of the safe altitude target during a resolution advisory.
Scenarios which may be confusing or misleading are discussed. These scenarios may be ameliorated or exacerbated by display features. This information is useful to guide both design and certification or operational approval and is a starting place for future TCAS experiments.

In the era of digital transformation, following the emergence of disruptive technologies that guided and facilitated the shift towards sharing economy, change is imperative. Imagine the very nice-looking carriages that you see in the royal weddings and compare them to the latest generation of Tesla cars. Or compare the set of skills required to fly Yakovlev Air-5 model 1931 vis-a-vis the Dassault Rafale or the F16 Fighting Falcon (Top 10 fighters, 2017). Before embarking on driving/flying the latter, regardless how competent with the former, the driver/pilot needs to acquire relevant knowledge and master a new set of skills and techniques, and learn different methods in order to be able to deal with the state-of-the-art technology. The vibrant business environment that has become even turbulent amid the digital transformation is analogous to the rough sea with unfavourable conditions. Those who are not ahead of the game, vigilant, and aware of what they need to do in order to sail safe will have an unpleasant ending, regardless of how successful they are at present. The Titanic is just one example.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Lean-premixed (LPM) gas turbines have been developed for stationary power generation in efforts to reduce emissions due to strict air quality standards. Lean-premixed operation is beneficial as it reduces combustor temperatures, thus decreasing NOx formation and unburned hydrocarbons. However, tradeoffs occur between system performance and turbine emissions. Efforts to minimize tradeoffs between stability and emissions include the addition of hydrogen to natural gas, a common fuel used in stationary gas turbines. The addition of hydrogen is promising for both increasing combustor stability and further reducing emissions because of its wide flammability limits allowing for lower temperature operation, and lack of carbon molecules. Other efforts to increase gas turbine stability include the usage of a non-lean pilot flame to assist in stabilizing the main flame. By varying fuel composition for both the main and piloted flows of a gas turbine combustor, the effect of hydrogen addition on performance and emissions can be systematically evaluated. In the present work, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and chemical reactor networks (CRN) are created to evaluate stability (LBO) and emissions of a gas turbine combustor by utilizing fuel and flow rate conditions from former hydrogen and natural gas experimental results. With CFD and CRN analysis, the optimization of parameters between fuel composition and main/pilot flow splits can provide feedback for minimizing pollutants while increasing stability limits. The results from both the gas turbine model and former experimental results can guide future gas turbine operation and design.

Full textAbstract:
The current world is facing unprecedented crises and wicked problems that need solving. Even if some of them might affect our life more right now and in the short term (e.g., global security crisis, energy crisis, etc.), the biggest challenge for societies for years to come is climate change. Digital solutions have the potential to offer relief and solutions to various problems, including climate challenges, but the biggest concern is still the large gap between policymakers and people's concerns and expectations. Future developments should not only be guided by the technologically feasible but by what is socially desirable and acceptable. Therefore, the citizens’ engagement, particularly digital crowdsourcing, for the design of digital services, as well as policies that affect their lives, is crucial.To understand the usage of crowdsourcing for policy-design purposes, we have piloted a crowdsourcing activity in five European countries on the subject of air quality. To assess the results of the pilot, we use a novel e-participation assessment framework created by the joint effort of the e-Governance Academy and the project partners of the Co-Designing Europe Project . The assessment framework was created based on extensive analyses of e-participation cases from various countries and contexts using the Theory of Change (ToC) methodology. The framework also has a practical checklist which enables any initiator of e-participation - be it from a public authority or from the civil society, to design an e-participation/crowdsourcing activity and assess its impact after completing the case. The aim of this article is, based on theory and practice, to highlight and analyse the biggest challenges, obstacles, and success factors for impactful crowdsourcing, the potential to use the “wisdom of the crowd” to solve wicked problems in society, and the role technology plays in this process.
