Twin-jet and trijet aircraft: a study for an optimal design of regional aircraft
Abstract Aircraft with three engines, as known as trijet became a standard design among manufacturers after 1964 when the FAA’s 60-minute rule was established for these aircraft. This regulation restricted the flight path to 60 minutes’ flying time to a suitable airport, therefore affecting the operation costs and limiting the range of twin-jet ...

Eastern asian emissions of anthropogenic halocarbons deduced from aircraft concentration data [PDF]
The Montreal Protocol restricts production of ozone-depleting halocarbons worldwide. Enforcement of the protocol has relied mainly on annual government statistics of production and consumption of these compounds (bottom-up approach).

Regional jet retrofitting through multidisciplinary aircraft design
Abstract Multidisciplinary collaborative aircraft design is applied to a 90 passengers regional jet aircraft retrofit, highlighting the impact on costs and performance. Two retrofitting packages have been considered: the re-engining of conventional power-plant platform with advanced geared turbofan and the on-board-system modernization ...

Radiative forcing from aircraft NOx emissions: Mechanisms and seasonal dependence [PDF]
A chemistry-climate model has been applied to study the radiative forcings generated by aircraft NOx emissions through changes in ozone and methane. Four numerical experiments, where an extra pulse of aircraft NOx was emitted into the model atmosphere ...
