A Predictive Model of Flight Crew Performance in Automated Air Traffic Control and Flight Management Operations*
This paper describes Air-MIDAS, a model of pilot performance in interaction with varied levels of automation in flight management operations. The model was used to predict the performance of a two person flight crew responding to clearance information generated by the Center TRACON Automation System (CTAS). The model represents the information requirements, decision processes, communication pro...
متن کاملLaser Beam Hazard for flight personnel
Lasers can produce a beam of light of such intensity that permanent damage to human tissue, in particular the retina of the eye, can be caused instantaneously, even at distances of over 10 km. At lower intensities, laser beams can seriously affect visual performance without causing physical damage to the eyes; causing transient damage or causing sensation and loss of focus. Laser illumination o...
متن کاملUrban Sprawl Pattern and Its Implications for Urban Management (Case Study: Zaria Urban Area, Nigeria)
Urban sprawl, or the unplanned and uncontrolled spreading out of built-up areas in Zaria urban area causes problems of congestion, poor urban basic infrastructure delivery and poor urban planning. This paper analyzed the pattern and implications of urban sprawl using GIS and Remote sensing as an improved approach to analyze and explain sprawling beyond the traditional spatial or cartographic ma...
متن کاملOptimization of Airport Terminal-Area Air Traffic Operations under Uncertain Weather Conditions
Convective weather is responsible for large delays and widespread disruptions in the U.S. National Airspace System, especially during summer. Although Air Traffic Flow Management algorithms exist to schedule and route traffic in the face of disruptions, they require reliable forecasts of airspace capacity. However, there exists a gap between the spatial and temporal accuracy of aviation weather...
متن کاملSimulation Modeling and Analysis of In-Flight Service Operations for Commercial Passenger Flights
Nowadays, in-flight comfort has become an essential characteristic to survive in domestic airline businesses. Air hostesses’ quality of service and response time to customer demand plays a vital role in enhancing quality of the flight experience and passenger satisfaction. However, additional requirements on air hostess expose them to fatigue which could eventually result in job dissatisfac...
