Simulation-Based Prediction of Departure Aircraft Performance from Surveillance-like Data Using Neural Networks by Kiumars Askari, Michele Cremaschi

“…This paper introduces a novel approach to estimating these parameters from radar/ADS-B data using three neural network models trained on flight simulator data for the Boeing 747-400 airplane. The models are tested on 2204 simulated flights that are not used for training and that are transformed into radar/ADS-B data formats. …”

Reckoning technique of passenger airplane approach procedure in case of all main engines failure by M. A. Kiselev, S. V. Levitsky, V. A. Podobedov

“…The causes of such situations may be, for example, a flying in volcanic ash cloud, as in the case of the incident with Boeing 747 over the island of Java in 1982, or the cessation of fuel supply, as in the cases of an emergency landing of Boeing 767-233 in 1983 on an unused military airfield Gimlii and Tupolev-204 in Omsk in 2002. …”

Robust Control for Non-Minimum Phase Systems with Actuator Faults: Application to Aircraft Longitudinal Flight Control by Aisha Sir Elkhatem, Seref Naci Engin, Amjad Ali Pasha, Mustafa Mutiur Rahman, Subramania Nadaraja Pillai

“…This study is concerned with developing a robust tracking control system that merges the optimal control theory with fractional-order-based control and the heuristic optimization algorithms into a single framework for the non-minimum phase pitch angle dynamics of Boeing 747 aircraft. The main control objective is to deal with the non-minimum phase nature of the aircraft pitching-up action, which is used to increase the altitude. …”

On the Use of Carbon Cables from Plastic Solvent Combinations of Polystyrene and Toluene in Carbon Nanotube Synthesis by Alvin Orbaek White, Ali Hedayati, Tim Yick, Varun Shenoy Gangoli, Yubiao Niu, Sean Lethbridge, Ioannis Tsampanakis, Gemma Swan, Léo Pointeaux, Abigail Crane, Rhys Charles, Jainaba Sallah-Conteh, Andrew O. Anderson, Matthew Lloyd Davies, Stuart. J. Corr, Richard E. Palmer

“…The lifecycle assessment (LCA) of CNT wire production was compared to copper wire production for a use case in a Boeing 747-400 over the lifespan of the aircraft. Due to their lightweight nature, the CNT wires decreased the CO₂ footprint by 21 kTonnes (kTe) over the aircraft’s lifespan.…”
