A Brief Review on Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System
International Journal of Mechanical And Production Engineering, ISSN: 2320-2092, Volume- 5, Issue-6, Jun.-2017 http://iraj.in A BRIEF REVIEW ON ELECTROMAGNETIC AIRCRAFT LAUNCH SYSTEM 1AZEEM SINGH KAHLON, 2TAAVISHE GUPTA, 3POOJA DAHIYA, 4SUDHIR KUMAR CHATURVEDI Department of Aerospace Engineering, University of Petroleum and Energy Studies, Dehradun, India E-mail: [email protected] Abstract - This paper describes the basic design, advantages and disadvantages of an Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) for aircraft carriers of the future along with a brief comparison with traditional launch mechanisms. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the feasibility of EMALS for the next generation indigenous aircraft carrier INS Vishal. I. INTRODUCTION maneuvering. Depending on the thrust produced by the engines and weight of aircraft the length of the India has a central and strategic location in the Indian runway varies widely for different aircraft. Normal Ocean. It shares the longest coastline of 7500 runways are designed so as to accommodate the kilometers amongst other nations sharing the Indian launch for such deviation in takeoff lengths, but the Ocean. India's 80% trade is via sea routes passing scenario is different when it comes to aircraft carriers. through the Indian Ocean and 85% of its oil and gas Launch of an aircraft from a mobile platform always are imported through sea routes. Indian Ocean also requires additional systems and methods to assist the serves as the locus of important international Sea launch because the runway has to be scaled down, Lines Of Communication (SLOCs) . Development of which is only about 300 feet as compared to 5,000- India’s political structure, industrial and commercial 6,000 feet required for normal aircraft to takeoff from growth has no meaning until its shores are protected. -

US Navy Flight Deck Hearing Protection Use Trends
U.S. Navy Flight Deck Hearing Protection Use Trends: Survey Results Valerie S. Bjorn Naval Air Systems Command AEDC/DOF 740 Fourth Street Arnold AFB, TN 38389-6000, USA [email protected] Christopher B. Albery Advanced Information Engineering Services - A General Dynamics Company 5200 Springfield Pike, WP-441 Dayton, OH 45431, USA [email protected] CDR Russell Shilling, Ph.D., MSC, USN Office of Naval Research - Medical and Biological S&T Division 800 N Quincy Street Arlington, VA 22217-5860, USA [email protected] Richard L. McKinley Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL/HECB) 2610 Seventh Street, Bldg 441 Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433-7901 [email protected] ABSTRACT Hearing loss claims have risen steadily in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs across all military services for decades. The U.S. Navy, with U.S. Air Force and industry partners, is working to improve hearing protection and speech intelligibility for aircraft carrier flight deck crews who work up to 16 hours per day in 130-150 dB tactical jet aircraft noise. Currently, flight deck crews are required to wear double hearing protection: earplugs and earmuffs (in cranial helmet). Previous studies indicated this double hearing protection provides approximately 30 dB of noise attenuation when earplugs are inserted correctly and the cranial/earmuffs are well-fit and in good condition. To assess hearing protection practices and estimate noise attenuation levels for active duty flight deck crews, Naval Air Systems Command surveyed 301 U.S. Navy Atlantic and Pacific Fleet flight deck personnel from four aircraft carriers and two amphibious assault ships. -
Path Planning for Autonomous Landing of Helicopter on the Aircraft Carrier

Unlike fixed-wing aircraft, the landing path of helicopters is not regulated and can be determined autonomously, and the path planning problem for autonomous landing of helicopters on the carrier is studied in this paper. To solve the problem, the returning flight is divided into two phases, that is, approaching the carrier and landing on the flight deck. The feature of each phase is depicted, and the conceptual model is built on this basis to provide a general frame and idea of solving the problem. In the established mathematical model, the path planning problem is formulated into an optimization problem, and the constraints are classified by the characteristics of the helicopter and the task requirements. The goal is to reduce the terminal position error and the impact between the helicopter and the flight deck. To obtain a reasonable landing path, a multiphase path planning algorithm with the pigeon inspired optimization (MPPIO) algorithm is proposed to adapt to the changing environment. -

Others are crew. • Brian – Current Uber CRM is anticipating (4) Passengers and (1) Pilot. 5/6/2020 VFS Webinar: UAM Urban / Municipality Planning & Land Use 4 Would US Coast Guard regulations apply if you have multiple aircraft on Question 2 the waterborne landing platform simultaneously that sum up to more than 6 paying passengers? 5/6/2020 VFS Webinar: UAM Urban / Municipality Planning & Land Use 5 Answer 2 • Rik – The simple answer is yes. • As such, in principle, if you have one barge with two six passenger VTOLs landing at the same time, you are not USCG compliant, but if you cut the barge in half and make two smaller barges you would be compliant. Having said that if one were to try that trick, I would expect that the USCG and others will find a reason why you cannot get away with that too easily. -

I would never have begun this seven year journey without the true love and support of my wonderful wife Debbie. She is with me always. We are a great team. I appreciate my parents and grandparents who encouraged the pursuit of my aviation dreams and my education through the years, and I appreciate the love and support of my two daughters, Michelle and Lisa, and my extended family. Dr. Mary Kutz encouraged me to start this journey in 2006 as my advisor and committee chair. After her retirement in 2012, she volunteered to remain as a committee member through my defense of this dissertation. I will never forget it. She made all the difference. Dr. Steve Marks was critical and instrumental in my completion of this degree. He served as my committee chair and advisor giving me the specific guidance, direction, encouragement and confidence to finish my work. Dr. Lynna Ausburn gave wonderful guidance in areas I had overlooked, and she challenged my thinking. -
