Analysis of local moisture increase of timber constructions on ice arena roof
Žák, Antonín; Trcala, Miroslav; Šikula, Ondřej
English
Timber is one of the most used materials for roofing of ice arena because of its very good mechanical properties and low weight. High relative humidity of internal air, low temperature and ice rink presence, which cause fall of surface temperatures of constructions under the dew point due to radiation, are risky factors not only from structural point of view, when load bearing capacity of construction in time is reduced, but also from the view point of bio corrosion. Specific hygrothermal microclimate, different from air parameters in the ice arena, is formatted close to the individual members of roof construction. Newly developed mathematical and physical model using CFD simulation is used for simulation of hygrothermal stress in chosen part of the ice arena roof construction, which substantially affects quality, utility properties and life time of timber roof components. Results are compared with experiments in specific ice rink. Dřevo je díky nízké hmotnosti a velmi dobrým mechanickým vlastnostem jedním z nejčastěji využívaných materiálů na vytvoření zastřešení zimních stadionů. Nízká teplota, vysoká relativní vlhkost vnitřního vzduchu a přítomnost ledové plochy, snižující vzájemným sáláním povrchové teploty konstrukcí i pod teplotu rosného bodu, jsou rizikovým faktorem nejen z pohledu snížení únosnosti konstrukce v čase, ale také z hlediska biokoroze. V blízkosti jednotlivých prvků střešní konstrukce se vytváří specifické tepelně-vlhkostní mikroklima odlišné od parametrů vzduchu v hale. Nově vyvinutým matematicko-fyzikálním modelem a využitím CFD simulace bylo simulováno tepelně-vlhkostní namáhání částí dřevěné střešní konstrukce zimního stadionu, které nezanedbatelně ovlivňuje kvalitu, užitné vlastnosti a životnost dřevěných prvků střechy. Výsledky byly srovnány s experimenty na konkrétním zimním stadionu. Available in a digital repository NRGL

Verification and numerical simulation of advanced composite inlet in compliance of airworthiness impact requirements
Doubrava, Radek; Oberthor, Martin; Raška, Jan; Bělský, Petr; Doubrava, Karel; Dvořák, Milan
English
Bird or hail stone strikes are an important phenomenon which must be considered during aircraft design. Most of major bird or hail strike incidents result from engine ingestion. As engines are the sole thrust providing mechanisms of an aircraft, it is critical to investigate and mitigate the effects of bird or hail strikes on engine inlets and systems to the greatest extent possible. The article presents application of test verified numerical simulation for design and full-scale test verification of advanced composite air inlet for new generation of jet trainer aircraft from point of view of high speed impact resistance. The physical bird and hail impact tests were performed at the Czech Aerospace Research Centre (VZLÚ) according to airworthiness requirements. The measurement during impact test were performed by high-speed camera, Fiber Bragg Grating (FGB) sensors and strain gauges in cooperation with Czech Technical University (CTU) in Prague. The results from full-scale bird and hail strike tests were compared with numerical simulation. Keywords: bird; hail; air inlet; FEM; impact Available in a digital repository NRGL

Reduction in the pilot’s stress during the landing maneuver by providing accurate height information
Šplíchal, Miroslav
English
The article is focused on pilot stress reduction during landing by providing accurate height information. It is based on the results of the completed project TA04030510 – Assistance systems supporting the pilot’s right decisions increasing the safety of operating small civil aircraft. The landing is the most critical phase of a flight. Accidents occurring during approach and landing phases generally represent up to 40 % of all aircraft accidents. A frequent cause of these accidents is a pilot error. During project development, 112 accidents of ultralight aircraft and 152 accidents of small GA aircraft that happened from 2005 to 2015 were analyzed. In total, 48 aircraft landing-related accidents and 22 accidents in ultralight aircraft were found. Landing accidents represent 26.5% of all investigated accidents.

Integrated method utilizing graph theory and fuzzy logic for safety and reliability assessment of airborne systems
Janhuba, Luboš; Hlinka, Jiří; Koštial, Rostislav
English
This paper presents integrated algorithm for airborne system safety and reliability assessment. In general aviation (mostly up to EASA CS-23) and non-military unmanned aerial vehicles industry, safety and reliability assessment process still relays almost exclusively on human judgment. Recommended practices define processes for system modelling and safety assessing are based on analyst understanding of a particular system. That is difficult and time-consuming process. Commercial computation aids are extremely expensive with restricted (or closed) access to the solution algorithms. Together with this problem, rapid development of modern airborne systems, their increasing complexity, elevates level of interconnection. Therefore, safety and reliability analyses have to continuously evolve and adapt to the extending complexity. Growing expansion brings in the field of unnamed aerial vehicles systems which consist of items without relevant reliability testing. Presented algorithm utilizes graph theory and fuzzy logic in order to develop integrated computerized mean for reliability analysis of sophisticated, highly interconnected airborne systems. Through the usage of graph theory, it is possible to create model of particular systems and its sub-systems in the form of universal data structure. Algorithm is conceived as fuzzy expert system, that emulates decision making of a human expert. That brings opportunity to partially quantify system attributes and criticality. Criticality evaluation increases level of assessment correlation with real state of system and its attributes.

Teaching aircraft design through a blended learning method in a higher education
Kwiek, Agnieszka
English
A blended learning is a method which combines a few teaching methods. Usually it is a mix of classic teaching approach with using of online tools. A Nearpod is technology enhanced learning (TEL) tool which allows for creating an interactive presentation which can be delivered in a real time session or in a self-paced mode. The presentation can be displayed on a student’s computer or mobile phone. This paper presents how students experience can be enhanced by the implementation of a blended learning in aircraft design lectures. And how a Nearpod can be integrated into those lectures to help students develop such skills as creativity, critical thinking and problem solving, which are vital for aircraft design project and students’ further career in the aerospace sector. This study focuses on aeronautical students studying at the University of Brighton in School of Computing Engineering and Mathematics. Students group includes BEng., MEng. and BSc. Top-Up students who were enrolled in level 6 module - ME351 Aircraft Design and Management Project. Results reveal that students' attendance is higher than traditional lectures and the most favorite and helpful activities are quizzes & polls, draw it and fill blanks. Aerospace engineering students prefer Nearpod activities where they can choose an answer or draw it rather than writing it.

Trends in development of aircraft for regional routes: impact on the european air transportation system
Nõmmik, Allan
English
The beginning of the twenty-first century in air transportation is characterized by increasing competition between (regular, i.e. not low-cost) airlines, which in its turn affects the low cost airlines by necessitating for them the operating of aircraft with larger seat capacity also on local routes, with the goal of operating the aircraft at lower cost per available seat kilometer. Taking into account the importance of air connections for the regional economy, the local authorities are obligated to support regional airports and impose public service obligations on some routes. This study examines the regional aircraft development after the air transportation market liberalization, while also delving into the background of differences in environments of operation in Europe and United States. To evaluate the regional routes’ equipment competitiveness, this research is focusing on to the regional aircraft fuel consumption which is the considerable factor for airline’s operating costs. Analysis of the differences between operating environments in Europe and the United States is based on an earlier review of the research findings on development of the markets after liberalization, and the role regional aircraft in air transportation system. Also, the comparisons of the profitability and airlines’ strategies in both regions are given. The results provide insights into the main drivers of regional aircraft design and development from the demand’s point of view.
