Law and Infrastructure: Reliability, Automation Transition, and Irregularities of “U‐Space”

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union (EU) is making regulatory efforts to allow for the safe integration of drones into civilian airspace through automated means. Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/664 concerning unmanned traffic management (a system referred to as “U‐Space”) furthers that commitment. Accordingly, drone operators must avail themselves

Innovating Aircraft Repair Processes: The Role of Digitalization in Sustainability

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 7, 8 April 2026.
This research explores how digitalization—by storing detailed non‐destructive testing data in structured DICONDE databases and creating a standard data model of the component—innovates aviation maintenance and repair processes. Coupled with a developed state‐based simulation model, it enables data‐driven, sustainable repair strategies that reduce waste,

Experimental Study on Ice Accretion of Aviation Jet Fuel Tube

Aerospace, 2022
Ice accretion on the inner surface of a fuel tube can fall off and potentially block the filters and small orifices, which thereby restricts the fuel flow to the engines during the long flying of the aircraft in cold conditions.

Optimization in Conceptual Design of a BWB UAV Using an Adaptive Kriging‐Based Surrogate Model

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
An adaptive Kriging‐based framework for Blended Wing Body UAV optimization is presented. The exploitation‐oriented strategy yields a 14.5% range improvement, while sensitivity analysis identifies fuel mass as the dominant parameter for efficient conceptual design. ABSTRACT To improve optimization efficiency in the conceptual design of Blended Wing Body
