  1. 1. First Principle Parameter-Based Performance Model for Commercial Turbofan Aircraft

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Jacob Wrase; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Climate change and greenhouse gas emissions are arguably some of the most pressing threats that today's society has to face. Emissions from the transport sector, including air traffic, play an important role in the pursuit of reducing climate impact. READ MORE

  3. 2. Terrain Referenced Navigation with Path Optimization : Optimizing Navigation Accuracy by Path Planning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Martin Gelin; [2022]
    Keywords : Terrain Referenced Navigation; Localization; Particle Filter; Rao-Blackwellized Particle Filter; Kalman Filter; Path Planning; Terrängbaserad navigering; Lokalisering; Partikelfilter; Rao-Blackwelliserat partikelfilter; Kalmanfilter; Banplanering;

    Abstract : Terrain referenced navigation is a method of navigation that uses measurements of altitude above ground to infer the position of the vehicle, mainly aerial or underwater. This method provides an alternative to the commonly used satellite-based navigation. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploring feasibility of reinforcement learning flight route planning

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Abstract : This thesis explores and compares traditional and reinforcement learning (RL) methods of performing 2D flight path planning in 3D space. A wide overview of natural, classic, and learning approaches to planning s done in conjunction with a review of some general recurring problems and tradeoffs that appear within planning. READ MORE

  5. 4. Planning semi-autonomous drone photo missions in Google Earth

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Avdelningen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Per Johan Fredrik Nilsson; [2017]
    Keywords : Google Earth; Robotics; Pathfinding; A*; Theta*; Path smoothing; Traveling Salesman Problem; Branch-and-Bound; Swift; C ;

    Abstract : This report covers an investigation of the methods and algorithms required to plan and perform semi-autonomous photo missions on Apple iPad devices using data exported from Google Earth. Flight time was to be minimized, taking wind velocity and aircraft performance into account. READ MORE

  6. 5. Environmental cost of different unit rates

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : David Ngo; Frida Shamoun; [2016]
    Keywords : LFV; Eurocontrol; Sverige; Sweden; airspace; airspace dodging; Europe; aircraft; aviation; airplane; route planning; flight planning; unit rate; route charge; environmental cost; FAB; waypoints; airline;

    Abstract : Flight planning is a large part of the air traffic operations that are presently being conducted. Airlines strive to achieve the cheapest and most cost effective routes for their flights, resulting in aircraft sometimes flying longer routes in order to avoid expensive airspaces with high unit rates.
