The future “eEnabled” airplane, capable of participating as an intelligent node in a global information network, is a cyber-physical system (CPS) that requires real-time, continuous and concurrent monitoring as well as control. Vulnerabilities, however, can emerge from the integration of the eEnabled airplane with cyberinfrastructure such as the onboard embedded systems, the ground IT systems a...

Abstract The aviation industry is of great importance for a globally connected economy. Customer satisfaction with airlines and airport performance considerably influenced by how much flights are delayed. But should the delay be quantified thousands each airline? Here, we present statistical analysis arrival delays at several UK airports between 2018 2020. We establish procedure to compare both...

Abstract Traveling and possible impact on climate environment are currently under intense debate, air travel in particular is often question due to the use of fossil fuels. Electric propulsion has therefore become very popular but energy sources for electricity generation should as well be taken into consideration. On other hand, social aspect traveling usually forgotten also included a complet...

Dynamics of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) with hydrogen storage system for generating part of Hercules airplanes electrical energy is presented. Feasibility of using fuel cell (FC) for this airplane is evaluated by means of simulations. Temperature change and dual layer capacity effect are considered in all simulations. Using a three-level 3-phase inverter, FC's output voltage is ...
