Pilot Variability During Pilot-Induced Oscillation
Pilot Induced Oscillations (PIO) are described as pilot-aircraft dynamic couplings which can lead to instability in an otherwise stable system. Previous and ongoing research has attempted to explain, predict, and avoid such oscillations. In contrast to other research, this effort backs away from …

Physics-Informed Deep Learning for Pilot Parameter Estimation and Pilot-Induced Oscillation Characterization
… contributors tackled in this research are human pilot error and categories of pilot-induced-oscillations. The primary objective is to develop models that can capture the mathematical parameters that relate to human pilot control under the widely used McRuer Mathematical pilot model. The goal is …

Effects of Oxygen Deprivation on Pilot Performance and Cognitive Processing Skills: A Pilot Study
… Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations, pilots flying above 14,000 ft. are required to use supplemental oxygen. The purpose of this study was to examine how oxygen deprivation below 14,000 ft. affects pilot performance using the Frasca Mentor Advanced Aviation Training Device (AATD), and …

Pilot Perception of Cockpit Organizational Framework’s Impact on Flight Safety and Subordinate Pilot Behavior
… continue to be incidences where subordinate pilots make weak or ineffective attempts to preserve safety.</p> <p>This research investigated commercial and airline transport pilots’ perception of the impact cockpit organizational framework (COF) has on both flight safety and subordinate pilot …

Moral Development in Pilot Populations
… ethics education. In this study three groups of pilots (students, instructors, and faculty) at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University are examined in an effort to determine moral development level in terms of P score on the Defining Issues Test 2 (DIT2) and two domain specific additional questions. …

A somatosensory test : a pilot study
… changing the instruction manual accordingly. A pilot study was conducted to determine validity and reliability of the proposed test. A representative sample (n = 114) was recruited from the Sub A population in the Durbanville and Kraaifontein area of the Northern suburbs of the Cape Town …

Ponderomotive Forces in Pilot-Wave Hydrodynamics
… a resonant interaction with their self-induced pilot wave. In pilot-wave hydrodynamics (PWH), the spontaneous emergence of coherent, wave-like statistics from chaotic trajectories has been reported in several settings. Owing to the similarity of PWH to Louis de Broglie’s realist picture of …

Theoretical modeling of pilot-wave hydrodynamics
… walking state. By considering a generalized pilot-wave framework that allows us to explore parameter regimes beyond that accessible in the laboratory, we discover states in which the walker's speed oscillates over a scale comparable to the Faraday wavelength, in addition to a regime in which …

Non-pilot Protection of the HVDC Grid
This thesis develops a non-pilot protection system for the next generation power transmission system, the High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) grid. The HVDC grid protection system is required to be (i) adequately fast to prevent damages and/or converter blocking and (ii) reliable to minimize the …

An Ergonomic Evaluation of Aircraft Pilot Seats
… seat comfort in commercially available average pilot seats. Three pilot seats, which had the same material and similar adjustments but different physical attributes, and a universal classroom seat, with different material and no adjustments, were compared by 20 volunteers using subjective and …

Migraine and emotion: a qualitative pilot study
Migraine affects 10 percent of the Australian population and may be severe in nature. To understand the subjective experience of migraine, five migraneurs were interviewed and asked to discuss the emotions associated with migraine. The negative emotional aspects associated with migraine, feeling …

Mass Exodus: Examination of USAF Pilot Retention
… severely low retention among its highly trained pilots. This study strove to explore this problem, looking at the underlying reasons why pilots were leaving the USAF before retirement and then generating potential evidence based solutions to this retention issue. In order to accomplish this goal, …
