This study analyzed the major factors affecting the Fuel Consumption Index (FCI) of large transport aircraft and developed aircraft-specific explanatory regression models using actual airline operational data. The dataset ...

This study proposes an operational approach to takeoff and landing for swarm flight of multiple VTOL fixed-wing UAVs and evaluates its applicability through outdoor flight tests. The takeoff operation consists of simultaneous ...

Helicopter accidents are still largely attributed to pilots' human error, and visual attention is critical to maintaining situation awareness. The gaze of 16 helicopter pilots was recorded with a head-mounted eye tracker ...

A Remote Tower System enables aerodrome control services to be provided remotely using imaging, surveillance, and communication technologies. However, interactions between controllers and digital systems may create hazards ...

This study examines the thematic structure and temporal changes of aviation safety issues using narrative information from aviation accident and incident investigation reports. Narrative data from the National Transportation ...

This study identifies institutional gaps between ICAO standards for air transport pilot (ATP) certification and Korea's Aviation Safety Act, using literature review, comparative legal research, and policy analysis. Although ...

Hard landings can damage aircraft structures and threaten operational safety. This study proposes an explainable, mechanism-based approach that uses an unsupervised autoencoder, trained only on normal landings, to characterize ...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is widely used across automotive, medical, and food industries, and has more recently gained attention as a potential environmentally friendly propellant for aerospace propulsion systems. However, ...

This study analyzes aircraft de-icing/anti-icing operation strategies for reducing departure delays at Incheon International Airport. Aircraft de-icing/anti-icing is an essential winter operation for flight safety, but it ...

Startle and surprise induce physical, physiological, and cognitive responses in pilots, negatively impacting their performance during flight. Furthermore, the accompanying acute stress enhances the stimulus-driven system, ...
