Advanced Civilian Aeronautical Concepts
نویسنده
چکیده
Paper discusses alternatives to currently deployed systems which could provide revolutionary improvements in metrics applicable to civilian aeronautics. Specific missions addressed include subsonic transports, supersonic transports and personal aircraft. These alternative systems and concepts are enabled by recent and envisaged advancements in electronics, communications, computing and “Designer Fluid Mechanics” in conjunction with a design approach employing extensive synergistic interactions between propulsion, aerodynamics and structures.

A Vision for the Future of Aeronautical Ground Testing
Ground-based infrastructure consisting of wind tunnels and propulsion system test cells has been the predominant tool for the development of aeronautical systems since the Wright Brothers. With advances in modeling and simulation, as well as a reduced tempo for developing new major flight systems, it is reasonable to ask whether these aeronautical ground-test facilities will be needed in the fu...
متن کاملVisions of the future aeronautical data network
Operations relevant for air traffic management are based on procedures communicated through speech commands. These procedures are human centric, thus un-automated. Following predictions of air traffic growth forecasts, air traffic will increase no matter which forecast model is taken into account. High density air traffic areas become inefficient to handle through un-automated procedures. As a ...

متن کاملCHALLENGES IN THE BETTER , FASTER , CHEAPER ERA OF AERONAUTICAL DESIGN , ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING Prepared by : Earll M . Murman Myles Walton Eric
“Better, Faster, Cheaper” (BFC) emerged in the 1990s as a new paradigm for aerospace products. In this paper, we examine some of the underlying reasons for BFC and offer some thoughts to help frame the thinking and action of aerospace industry professionals in this new era. Examination of literature on industrial innovation indicates that aeronautical products have evolved to a “dominant design...
