Because trainees need to learn about the underlying technologies to
use automation safely and efficiently, the development of automated
aviation systems training is a growing challenge. Task analysis has
been singled out as the basis of the training, but it can be more
time-consuming than traditional development techniques. Cases on
Modern Computer Systems in Aviation is an essential reference
source that covers new information technology use in aviation
systems to streamline the cybersecurity, decision-making, planning,
and design processes within the aviation industry. Featuring
coverage on a broad range of topics such as computer systems in
aviation, artificial intelligence, software-defined networking
(SDN), air navigation systems, decision support systems (DSS), and
more, this publication is ideally designed for aviation specialists
and industry professionals, technicians, practitioners,
researchers, and academicians seeking current research on modern
modeling approaches to streamline management in aviation.
Plans included: Iraklion (1:15 000) Spinalonga (1:50 000) Ayios
Nikolaos (1:15 000) Sitia (1:10 000) On this 2015 edition harbour
developments and more recent survey data are shown at Ayios
Nikolaos and Sitia.
Aircraft Sustainment and Repair is a one-stop-shop for
practitioners and researchers in the field of aircraft sustainment,
adhesively bonded aircraft joints, bonded composites repairs, and
the application of cold spray to military and civil aircraft.
Outlining the state-of-the-art in aircraft sustainment, this book
covers the use of quantitative fractography to determine the
in-service crack length versus flight hours curve, the effect of
intergranular cracking on structural integrity and the structural
significance of corrosion. The book additionally illustrates the
potential of composite repairs and SPD applications to metallic
airframes.
Time-Critical Cooperative Control of Autonomous Air Vehicles
presents, in an easy-to-read style, the latest research conducted
in the industry, while also introducing a set of novel ideas that
illuminate a new approach to problem-solving. The book is virtually
self-contained, giving the reader a complete, integrated
presentation of the different concepts, mathematical tools, and
control solutions needed to tackle and solve a number of problems
concerning time-critical cooperative control of UAVs. By including
case studies of fixed-wing and multirotor UAVs, the book
effectively broadens the scope of application of the methodologies
developed. This theoretical presentation is complemented with the
results of flight tests with real UAVs, and is an ideal reference
for researchers and practitioners from academia, research labs,
commercial companies, government workers, and those in the
international aerospace industry.
