ALOFT AN INFLIGHT REVIEW 03 4 BASIC TENET DEPARTURE Air trac is increasing, and with it the emission of greenhouse gases. In 2008, airlines, aircraft manufacturers and airports signed a voluntary commitment for the aviation industry From 2020, the industry wants to achieve CARBONNEUTRAL GROWTH. By 2050, it wants to REDUCE CARBON EMISSIONS by 75 per cent, compared to 2005. Further goals are a 90 per cent decrease in NITROGEN OXIDE EMISSIONS and a 65 per cent decrease in NOISE EMISSIONS. No other industry sector has formulated such far-reaching global climate targets. How can they be achieved? What innovations and political conditions are necessary?

  • Computational Aerodynamic Analysis of Blended Wing Body Mav Design
    IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 COMPUTATIONAL AERODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF BLENDED WING BODY MAV DESIGN Md. Akhtar khan1, Arjun Jagini2 1Assistant Professor, Department of Aerospace Engineering, GITAM University, Hyderabad 2Analyst, emug technologies Limited, Hyderabad Abstract The Blended Wing Body (BWB) configuration has the potential to change the way subsonic transport airplanes are designed. In the past ten years, fuel efficiency and noise reduction have become the two biggest challenges for aircraft manufacturers. This paper deals with the computational aerodynamic analysis of a BWB airplane at subsonic speeds using Ansys CFD as a simulation tool and ICEM CFD as a modeling tool. The study will focus on the aerodynamic characteristics such as the pressure, velocity variation over the body at different angle of attack. We are also calculating the aerodynamic efficiency (lift force to drag force ratio) so that we can compare the performance of a BWB aircraft with a conventional aircraft. Keywords: Blended Wing Body (BWB), Hybrid Wing, Tetra Mesh, Square Cube Law, ICEM CFD ---------------------------------------------------------------------***-------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

THE CASE OF EADS / BAE SYSTEMS Pierre BARBAROUX Blandine LAPERCHE 1 MERGERS FAILURE IN THE EUROPEAN DEFENCE TECHNOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL BASE. THE CASE OF EADS / BAE SYSTEMS Pierre BARBAROUX1 Blandine LAPERCHE2 Summary: This paper deals with the project of a merger between BAE systems and EADS, announced in September 2012 and finally cancelled one month later. It investigates the rationale of the merger project and the reasons that explain its collapse. Our first aim is to assess the importance - usually put forward in the literature - of the pre-merger phase in the success or the failure of a merger project. Our second aim is to put forward the specificities of mergers when defence firms are involved. Using a single case study methodology, we show that the economic rationality of the project was based on industrial complementaries, economic synergies and personal motives. We then investigate the many political divergences, specific to the defence industry, that emerged during the pre merger phase. Finally, considering the economic and political stakes, we suggest the merger project appeared as too big to succeed.
