  1. 1. User Preferred Trajectories in Commercial Aircraft Operation: Design and Implementation

    Författare :Hanyo Vera Anders; Arthur Rizzi; Tobias Andersson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aeronautics; air traffic management; aircraft operation; flygteknik; flygledning; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : This report describes how an aircraft creates and flies its User Preferred Trajectory from take-off to landing, based on the objectives and constraints the aircraft is subjected to from a technological and operational viewpoint. A basic description of commercial aircraft operation is given, with an emphasis on identifying the different stakeholders (Air Navigation Service Providers, Airline Operation Center, Pilot/Aircraft, Airport and Civil Aviation Authority).

  2. 2. Self-rated health and respiratory symptoms among civil aviation pilots : Occupational and non-occupational risk factors

    Författare :Xi Fu; Dan Norbäck; Christer Janson; Berndt Stenberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Civil Aviation; Aircraft pilot; Indoor environment; Self-rated health SRH ; Respiratory health; Asthma; Rhinitis; Headache; Fatigue; Insom-nia; Body mass index BMI ; Sense of Coherence SOC ; Psychosocial work environment; Quantitative PCR; Fungal DNA; Volatile organic compounds of microbial origin MVOC ; Cat allergen; Dog allergen; Horse allergen;

    Sammanfattning : There is concern about the indoor environment in aircraft but few stud-ies exist on self-rated health (SRH) and respiratory symptoms among pilots. Occupational and non-occupational risk factors for SRH, respira-tory symptoms and other symptoms among commercial pilots were investigated in this thesis. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Airborne cognitive systems in search of an appropriate context: Studies of the introduction of new technology in aviation using a cognitive systems engineering approach

    Författare :Örjan Goteman; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lufttransportteknik; Air transport technology; Safety; RNAV; Pilot; Automation Modes; HUD; Datalink; Cognition; Automation; Aviation;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Technology is always designed for an assumed user in an assumed context. In commercial aviation, these design assumptions are clearly spelt out in that both crew and equipment are certificated for a specific operation as stated in the aircraft flight manual. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Pilots’ decision-making, emotions and cognitive performance in simulated environments

    Författare :Eduardo Rosa; Johan Willander; Igor Knez; Robert Ljung; Nicklas Dahlström; Eric Groen; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; aviation; pilot; simulation; environment; decision-making; fatigue; cognition; emotion; physiology; flyg; pilot; simulering; miljö; beslutsfattande; trötthet; kognition; känslor; fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to investigate pilots’ performances in distinct simulation environments as related to the phenomena of cognition, emotion and fatigue. By doing so, it provides psychological material to broaden the understanding and possibility to development of pilots’ non-technical skills category related to the operational context. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Visual Flow Display for Pilot Spatial Orientation

    Författare :Lars Eriksson; Claes von Hofsten; David Lee; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Optic flow; visual flow; peripheral vision; spatial orientation; spatial disorientation; postural control; somatogravic illusion; human centrifuge; flight displays; head-up display; head-mounted display; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Pilot spatial disorientation (SD) is a significant cause of incidents and fatal accidents in aviation. The pilot is susceptible to SD especially in low visibility when the visual system is deprived of information from outside the cockpit. LÄS MER
