چکیده

In this article we present a model of some functions and activities of the Brazilian Air traffic Control System (ATS) in the period in which occurred a mid-air collision between flight GLO1907, a commercial aircraft Boeing 737-800, and flight N600XL, an executive jet EMBRAER E-145, to investigate key resilience characteristics of the ATM. Modeling in some detail activities during the collision and related them to overall behavior and antecedents that stress the organization uncover some drift into failure mechanisms that erode safety defenses provided by the Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP), enabling a mid-air collision to be happen.

Autonomous Air Traffic Control for Non-Towered Airports

Half of all reported near mid-air collisions involve at least one general aviation aircraft. More than half of NTSB reports of mid-air collisions occur in the vicinity or in the traffic pattern of an airport, and a majority of them occur at non-towered airports. This paper proposes a concept for traffic collision prevention targeted for general aviation aircraft operating in the vicinity of non...

Understanding the Interaction between Safety Management and the ‘Can Do’ Attitude in Air Traffic Management: Modeling the Causes of the Überlingen Mid-Air Collision

This paper focuses on the contribution of Air Traffic Management to the Überlingen mid-air collision. Events and Causal Factor models are developed to show the interaction between technical, human factors and managerial issues in the causes of this accident. In particular, we show how problems in safety management contributed to an error inducing context. Our analysis also points to the wider d...

A New Approach for Designing Safer Collision Avoidance Systems

The Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of mid-air collision and is currently mandated worldwide on all large transport aircraft. Engineering the collision avoidance logic was a very costly undertaking that spanned several decades. The development followed an iterative process where the logic was specified using pseudocode, evaluat...

Development of a strategic plan through SWOT analysis to control traffic-borne air pollutants using CALINE4 model

Traffic is one of the main sources of air pollution in metropolitan areas. With development of transportation system, inappropriate vehicle production, and the use of low-quality fuels, increased pollution in these areas is inevitable. The current study tries to determine PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and CO emission dispersion, caused by traffic, using CALINE4 software. Ac...
