Careful analysis of potential hazards can assist in the mitigation.docxtidwellveronique
Careful analysis of potential hazards can assist in the mitigation of future accidents. Two approaches to hazard analysis include the preliminary hazard analysis and the detailed hazard analysis. Both methods are used to help identify and prioritize the potential hazards at a job site that can end in the possibility of a severe accident. A preliminary hazard analysis is conducted to identify potential hazards and prioritize them according to (1) the likelihood of an accident or injury from a hazard and (2) the severity of an injury, illness or property damage that may result if the hazard had caused the accident (Goetsch, 2010). In contrast, a detailed hazard analysis involves the application of analytical, inductive, and deductive methods (Goetsch, 2010).
Expertise and reasoning can be two useful applications when performing a hazard analysis. Typically a preliminary hazard analysis along with previous expertise would be sufficient in determining possible job site hazards and developing methods to avoid them. If needed, more detailed methods can be used for conducting detailed analysis. They are:
failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA),
hazard and operability review (HAZOP),
technic of operations review (TOR),
human error analysis (HEA), and
fault tree analysis (FTA).
Failure mode and effects analysis is a formal step-by-step analytical method used to analyze complex engineering systems. The hazard and operability review is an analysis method that allows problems to be identified even before a body of experience has been developed for a given process or system (Goetsch, 2010). The technique of operations review is a method that allows supervisors and employees to work together to analyze workplace accidents and incidents. The human error analysis basically predicts that accidents are caused by human errors while the fault tree analysis visually displays the hazard analysis in detail.
Hazard analysis is extremely important in the construction industry. It is very important to analyze the probability of any types of accidents on-site and also to

ASCI 357 – SAMPLE Case Analysis
Robust Airline Schedule Planning
I. Summary
The construction of timetables for an airline is composed of aircraft and crew (Dunbar,
Froyland, and Wu, 2012). Crew cost is the biggest controllable expenditure for an airline, and
effective crew assignment is a very important aspect of planning (Gopalakrishnan and Johnson,
2005). Wensveen (2011) defines “airline scheduling as the art of designing system wide flight
patterns that provide optimum public service, in both quantity and quality, consistent with the
financial health of the carrier” (p. 360). An airline’s decision to offer certain flights is
dependent on market demand forecasts, available aircraft operating characteristics, available
work force, regulations, and the behaviour of competing airlines (Bazargan, 2010, p.31).
II. Problem
The problem is that the airline scheduling process in its entirety is very complex (Dunbar,
et al., 2012). Flight scheduling is the starting point for all other airline planning and operations
(Bazargan, 2010, p.31).
III. Significance of the Problem
The significance of the problem is that a vast number of rules and regulations associated
with airports, aircraft, and flight crews combined with the global expanse of air traffic networks,
require airline scheduling to be broken into manageable, traceable pieces (Dunbar, et al., 2012).
In 2006, the North American airline industry experienced a total of 116.5 million minutes of
delay, totalling a $7.7 billion increase in operating costs (Dunbar, et al., 2012).
IV. Development of Alternative Actions
Alternative Action 1. Airline and railway mode of transportation industries to form an
intermodal alliance (Iatrou and Oretti, 2007, p.88).
Case Analysis Guidelines by: Dr. Dave Worrells and Mr. Scott Burgess | ERAU, College of Aeronautics 2
Advantages. Access to airports through dedicated public transport could reduce
problems associated with road traffic and air quality around airports (Iatrou & Oretti, 2007, pp.
88-89). Iatrou & Oretti (2007) suggest an intermodal alliance near airports for better access to
city centers (p.89).
Disadvantages. The absence of interconnectivity, where air and rail industry have
different infrastructures with common rules and facilities (Iatrou & Oretti, 2007, p.89). High-
speed rail links to airports are not profitable in the short-term (Iatrou & Oretti, 2007, p.90).
Alternative Action 2: Increase flight schedules by extra minutes to boost on-time performance
(McCartney, 2012).
Advantages. Passengers would spend less time on aircraft (McCartney, 2012). Airlines
will have fewer planes sitting at terminal gates awaiting connecting passengers (McCartney,
2012).
Disadvantages. An aircraft departing late for a flight will run late for the r.

2. Abstract: pg.3
3. Analytical paragraph: pg.5
4. Introduction and Background: pg.6
5. Recommendation: pg.9
6. Conclusion: pg.10
7. References: pg.11
Considering the nature of report, it is limited in scope to different structure and platforms; we expect some challenges in the completion of research topic due to the time factor. I fully expect a further research and analysis of data applying statistical tools. On top of that, the project calls for analysis and recommendation of the research. The memorandum is attached to show the job allocation and scheduling thus I would require more time as I shall rely upon qualitative and quantitative tools of research. Therefore, I would request for a special consideration of all my sections of the project.

The purpose of this paper is to present the effectiveness of a new teaching methods through all the graduation process for engineering students, ranging from the BSc to the MSc level.
Two hundred undergraduate students in aerospace engineering at the Politecnico di Torino were involved in this teaching process. The paper presents the organization of the learning process through the different academic years.
The process implicates theoretical lectures, computer laboratories, and experimental workbench, and shows how different multidisciplinary concepts and models, useful for the aerospace systems design, can be presented and then worked again in the next courses. In particular, an example concerning the flight control system is presented underlining how the models can be introduced at the third year, with the support of some engineering tools, and then reprised and developed in more details at the fifth year, with an effective and quick heritage of knowledge.

Selection and evaluation of FOPID criteria for the X-15 adaptive flight cont...Hamzamohammed70
Recently, there has been a growing interest among academics worldwide in studying flight control systems. The
advancement of tracking technologies, such as the X-15 adaptive flight control system developed at NASA
(National Aeronautics and Space Administration), has sparked significant exploration efforts by scientists. The
vast availability of aerial resources further contributes to the importance of studying adaptive flight control
systems (AFCS). The successful operation of AFCS relies on effectively managing the three fundamental motions:
pitch, roll, and yaw. Therefore, scientists have been diligently working on developing optimization algorithms
and models to assist AFCS in achieving optimal gains during motion. However, in real-world scenarios, each
motion requires its own set of criteria, which presents several challenges. Firstly, there are multiple criteria
available for selecting appropriate optimization values for each motion. Secondly, the relative importance of
these criteria influences the selection process. Thirdly, there is a trade-off between the performance of the criteria
within a single optimization case and across different cases. Lastly, determining the critical value of the criteria
poses another obstacle. Consequently, evaluating and selecting optimum methods for AFCS trajectory controls
becomes a complex operation. To address the need for optimizing AFCS for various maneuvers, this study
proposes a new selection process. The suggested approach involves utilizing black hole optimization (BHO), Jaya
optimization algorithm (JOA), and sunflower optimization (SFO) as methods for detecting and correcting trajectories in adaptive flight control systems. These methods aim to determine the best launch of missiles from the
AFCS based on the coordinate location for both long and short distances. Additionally, the methods determine
the optimal gains for the FOPID (fractional order proportional integral derivative) controller and enhance protection against enemy attacks. The research framework consists of two parts. The first part focuses on improving
the FOPID motion gains by employing optimization algorithms (BHO, JOA, and SFO) that are evaluated based on
the FOPID criteria. Lower significant weighting values of the optimization algorithms demonstrate the best
missile launching in a cosine wave trajectory within AFCS, while higher significant values indicate the best
missile launching in a sine wave trajectory within AFCS. The FOPID controller criteria, including Kp_pitch, Ki_roll,
Kd_yaw, λ_pitch, and µ_yaw, are considered in all situations. Furthermore, the study reports the best weights
obtained for the "Kp_pitch" criterion across the motions as follows: (0.8147, 66.7190, and 54.4716). For the
"Ki_roll" criterion, the best weights are (0.0975, 64.4938, and 64.7311), and for "Kd_yaw" the weights are (0.1576,
35.2811, and 54.3886). The results of the selection process by the BHO, JOA, and SFO algorithms.
This is Part 1 of 3 covering my work on my Future Deep Strike Aircraft project, to inspire interest in aerospace engineering for the RAeS, the A&SPA(UK) and AIAA.
In Part 2 of the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University presenters Shawn Arena and Daniel Benny look at Airport Planning and Design and Airport Security. Presented March 31, 2016 as part of the ERAU Webinar series.

Re: Safety in Aviation Submittal 1420 new Bellevue
Dear Mr. Elwell,
Enclosed is my aviation submission for safety in aviation at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. My project was on aviation safety and from the word go relied on quantitative studies. The PDF packet includes 9 pages and breaks down as follows:
1. The letter of transmittal: pg.2
2. Abstract: pg.3
3. Analytical paragraph: pg.5
4. Introduction and Background: pg.6
5. Recommendation: pg.9
6. Conclusion: pg.10
7. References: pg.11
Considering the nature of report, it is limited in scope to different structure and platforms; we expect some challenges in the completion of research topic due to the time factor. I fully expect a further research and analysis of data applying statistical tools. On top of that, the project calls for analysis and recommendation of the research. The memorandum is attached to show the job allocation and scheduling thus I would require more time as I shall rely upon qualitative and quantitative tools of research. Therefore, I would request for a special consideration of all my sections of the project.
I would like to go ahead with my project on safety in aviation. Kindly pay a close attention to the progressive report of the work done and offer any green light for the completion of the project. Your guidance would be appreciated to the latter. Moreover, let me know if you experience any difficulties with my files or anything that seems to be not in order. You can contact me anytime via email at [email protected].
Thanks for your concern in advance,

Selection and evaluation of FOPID criteria for the X-15 adaptive flight cont...Hamzamohammed70
Recently, there has been a growing interest among academics worldwide in studying flight control systems. The
advancement of tracking technologies, such as the X-15 adaptive flight control system developed at NASA
(National Aeronautics and Space Administration), has sparked significant exploration efforts by scientists. The
vast availability of aerial resources further contributes to the importance of studying adaptive flight control
systems (AFCS). The successful operation of AFCS relies on effectively managing the three fundamental motions:
pitch, roll, and yaw. Therefore, scientists have been diligently working on developing optimization algorithms
and models to assist AFCS in achieving optimal gains during motion. However, in real-world scenarios, each
motion requires its own set of criteria, which presents several challenges. Firstly, there are multiple criteria
available for selecting appropriate optimization values for each motion. Secondly, the relative importance of
these criteria influences the selection process. Thirdly, there is a trade-off between the performance of the criteria
within a single optimization case and across different cases. Lastly, determining the critical value of the criteria
poses another obstacle. Consequently, evaluating and selecting optimum methods for AFCS trajectory controls
becomes a complex operation. To address the need for optimizing AFCS for various maneuvers, this study
proposes a new selection process. The suggested approach involves utilizing black hole optimization (BHO), Jaya
optimization algorithm (JOA), and sunflower optimization (SFO) as methods for detecting and correcting trajectories in adaptive flight control systems. These methods aim to determine the best launch of missiles from the
AFCS based on the coordinate location for both long and short distances. Additionally, the methods determine
the optimal gains for the FOPID (fractional order proportional integral derivative) controller and enhance protection against enemy attacks. The research framework consists of two parts. The first part focuses on improving
the FOPID motion gains by employing optimization algorithms (BHO, JOA, and SFO) that are evaluated based on
the FOPID criteria. Lower significant weighting values of the optimization algorithms demonstrate the best
missile launching in a cosine wave trajectory within AFCS, while higher significant values indicate the best
missile launching in a sine wave trajectory within AFCS. The FOPID controller criteria, including Kp_pitch, Ki_roll,
Kd_yaw, λ_pitch, and µ_yaw, are considered in all situations. Furthermore, the study reports the best weights
obtained for the "Kp_pitch" criterion across the motions as follows: (0.8147, 66.7190, and 54.4716). For the
"Ki_roll" criterion, the best weights are (0.0975, 64.4938, and 64.7311), and for "Kd_yaw" the weights are (0.1576,
35.2811, and 54.3886). The results of the selection process by the BHO, JOA, and SFO algorithms.
This is Part 1 of 3 covering my work on my Future Deep Strike Aircraft project, to inspire interest in aerospace engineering for the RAeS, the A&SPA(UK) and AIAA.
