4. 3. Investigations of the Transient Luminous Events with the small satellites, balloons and ground-based instruments

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Safura Mirzayeva; [2022]
   Keywords : TLE; sprite; jet; elve; halo; lightning; lighting detection; upper-atmospheric lightning; lightning location; nanosatellite; CubeSat;

   Abstract : The lightning is the natural source of electromagnetic radiation. It is an atmospheric electrical discharge.  However, since recent times, it was discovered that there are other types of lightning besides those that are visible to the naked eye. They are called TLEs (Transient Luminous Event) and take place above the clouds during thunderstorms. READ MORE

5. 4. Investigation of the wing design and endurance of an ultralight electrical aircraft

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

   Keywords : Aerodynamics; Electrical Aviation; CFD; Endurance; Drag; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The goal of this thesis was to explore the conversion of a propeller driven two-seater combustion airplane to an electrical airplane. Four different wing designs were considered. Two variations of Blackwing Sweden AB’s current Blackwing wing (BW), a longer wing (BW-L) and a shorter wing (BW-S), as well as a new wing with a different airfoil (GW). READ MORE

6. 5. Come Fly with Me (Sustainably) : Pathways to Sustainable General Aviation and Private Pilot Training

   University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Miljövetenskap

   Author : Michael Stiebe; [2022]
   Keywords : General Aviation; Sustainable Aviation; Sustainable Development; Electric Aviation; Noise Pollution; Leaded Fuel; AVGAS 100LL; Tetraethyl Lead Phaseout; Pilot Training; Recreational Aviation; Switzerland;

   Abstract : Whereas commercial aviation is attempting to achieve the reduction of its substantial carbon footprint, general aviation’s (GA) climate change contribution is negligibly small, which is why the sector is facing other sustainability challenges mainly entailing the operation of dated technology and aircraft, increasing regulatory constraints, rising costs, noise emissions, and popular discontent, as well as remaining the last mobility sector in the world to still use leaded fuels. Throughout recent years, there have been remarkable sustainability trends in GA as well as heightened efforts to improve its emissions profile (noise, pollutants, CO2) and environmental reputation, for instance by the increased use of electric aircraft, especially for private pilot training.
