...Ionel Botef Purpose – This paper aims to explore how the emerging cold spray technology could be integrated within a framework that finally could lead to more efficient aerospace operations. Design/methodology/approach – The paper builds research question and hypotheses and answers them...

...Riti Singh; Howard Smith Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore some of the challenges associated with the integration of an LH2-fuelled advanced hybrid-electric distributed propulsion system with the airframe. The airframe chosen as a case study is an ultra-high-capacity blended wing...

...Yu Jie; Wang Xinlong; Ji Jiaxing Purpose The purpose of this paper is to improve the tracking performance of the carrier phase lock loop (PLL) in the strapdown inertial navigation system/global positioning system (SINS/GPS) integrated system with an innovative scheme of ultra‐tight integration...

... machine interface Man machine systems Design Integration Human factors in aviation is a relatively new discipline. It has progressed through three broadly‐defined eras since its early foundations in the mid‐1940s. From the mid‐1940s to the mid‐1960s the discipline was essentially building its...

... education process must itself become an example of the integration of disciplines. The authors of this paper have backgrounds in different disciplines, each of which uses the concept of design. The relevance of design to these subject areas is now discussed. The ability of an aircraft to fulfil...
