The quality inspection of solder joints on aviation plugs is extremely important in modern manufacturing industries. However, this task is still mostly performed by skilled workers after welding operations, posing the problems of subjective judgment...
Ensuring the integrity of aviation plug components is crucial for maintaining the safety and functionality of the aerospace industry. Traditional methods for detecting surface defects often show low detection probabilities, highlighting the need for...
Hydrocarbon fuel biofouling and biocorrosion require expensive cleanup of aviation infrastructures unless appropriate sustainment measures are applied. The identification of novel biological control agents offers promising alternatives to the current...
The adoption of hybrid-electric aircraft is expected to have a considerable impact on airport operations, with the need of new infrastructural requirements to support electric-powered fleets. In particular, battery-charging requirements shall play a...
The evolution of Hybrid Power Supply Systems (HPSSs) has extended from ground-based microgrids to the safety-critical domain of More Electric Aircraft (MEA). This paper presents a comprehensive review of dynamic power allocation strategies, bridging...
It is necessary to find sustainable alternatives to the conventional fossil fuels used by the transportation sector today. For the hard-to-abate aviation and heavy transport, liquid hydrocarbon fuels derived from biomass via pyrolysis are a viable op...
Biomass-derived fast pyrolysis oil (PO) represents a promising alternative fuel for aviation and heavy transport. However, its high content of oxygenated organic molecules necessitates catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) before it is viable to be sent...
