Learning from past incidents is critical to achieving and maintaining high process safety
performance. Accident and incident records provide one way for learning; however, these …

Among the operations in the general-aviation community, one of the most important
objectives is to improve safety across all flight regimes. Flight-data-monitoring or flight …

Accurate identification of phases of flight is an essential step in analyses such as airport
operation counts, fuel burn estimation, and safety studies. Past research has focused …

The purpose of this paper is to group the flight data phases based on the sensor readings
that are most distinctive and to create a representation of the higher-dimensional input …

TUDIES of rotorcraft accidents have shown that both the total number of accidents and the
number of fatal accidents per flight hour are exceedingly larger than those for fixed-wing …

The black hole illusion (BHI) is a subtype of spatial disorientation that can result in fatal
consequences in aviation. Research on the BHI has generally focused on altitude deviation …

With the widespread application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), more and more
attention has been paid to the analysis of flight data, which can realize the condition …

To resolve the flight phase identification errors in the airborne quick access recorder (QAR)
trajectory data of civil aircraft, a method of flight phase re-identification was proposed based …

As my journey through graduate school draws to a close, I would like to acknowledge all
those who made this a great experience. First of all I would like to thank my adviser Prof …

Different aircraft have different load capacity and fuel consumption. Understanding which
aircraft has better fuel efficiency is meaningful for energy conservation and reducing …
