Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCollision Avoidance Modelling in Airline Traffic Based on the Change of Airplane Movements and Dynamic CloudsYudhi Purwananto, Chastine Fatichah, Waskitho Wibisono et al.An Air Traffic Controller (ATC) system aims to manage airline traffic to prevent collision of the airplane, called the Collision Avoidance (CA). The study on CA, called Conflict Detection and Resolution (CDR), becomes more critical as the airline traffic has grown each year significantly. Previous studies used optimization algorithms for CDR and did not involve the presence of cumulonimbus clouds. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2021 · 7,237 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHands-On Fire Extinguisher Training Apparatuses: Expert Evaluations of Two Propane Fire Simulators and Air-Pressurized Water ExtinguishersAwwad Dababneh, Abdul Jaleel Hamad Majeed, Rami H. FouadTwenty-two expert firefighting professionals were used in evaluating four methods for fire extinguisher hands-on training. Two different fire simulators were put into service along with two conditions for the fighting distance; keeping a distance of 2.44 m (8ft.) away from the base of the fire and having no restriction on getting closer to the fire. The fire simulators both utilized … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2017 · 7,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAirlanderRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Man always dreamed of flying. The important thing is not that it succeeded but that it has evolved permanently, improving its flight. The main problem in aviation was also the safety of the flight. How to keeps in the air, even when serious problems arise. Generally, the porting was made with engines and wings. But such support can’t be very … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 5 Jul 2017 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Passive Opportunity for Improving Air Quality in the Schools Environment: A Real-World Scale TestingPierpaoli Mattia, Fava GabrieleCan passive technology effectively enhance the indoor air quality? To improve classroom indoor air quality, an increase in ventilation and/or air purifiers are often suggested. In this study, a short-term intervention was implemented and investigated to evaluate the effects of a passive adsorbent surface on the pollutant deposition velocity and to improve the overall classroom air quality. We found that … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 3 Jun 2016 · 7,591 accessesView PDFCite
