In this paper, the use of continuous mathematical models of an aircraft in an aircraft simulator is described. The models are of lower degree and less time-consuming for calculation. Computer implementation of the models capable to work faster and more accurately and efficiently is also described. The suggested approach allows to achieve the required precision at accelerated simulation speed us...

We analyze the integrated tactical capacity planning of spare parts supply and workforce allocation in maintenance logistics of advanced equipment. The equipment time-to-failure, spare parts replenishment time, and equipment repair time are random and independent of each other.

The reasons that icing of aircraft leads to an accident are diverse. Ensuring the aircraft to take off clearly is the important factor of giving support to flying safety. Human factor is one of the important factors which have caused the accidents. In this paper, because of the complexity and uncertainty of human factors, we introduce Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to create weight model of...

International Civil Aviation Organization and other international aviation organizations regulate the safety in civil aviation. In the recent years the International Civil Aviation Organization has introduced the concept of the safety management system through several documents among which the most important is the 2006 Safety Management Manual. It treats the safety management system in all the...

Automated fault detection and diagnostic (FDD) systems have the potential to reduce equipment downtime, service costs, and utility costs. However, very few commercial products exist and the ones that do exist are very specialized. This may be surprising to some, considering that FDD is very well developed for other applications such as for nuclear power plants, aircraft, chemical process plants...

The processing technology of steel structural elements aircraft parts is especially important since, if improperly processed, this material can be subjected to weathering, causing corrosion. Furthermore, special attention paid the walls holes used for bolting. Since become stress concentrators, paper proposes strengthen them by implementing SPD (surface plastic deformation) method. article desc...
