Conflict Probability Based Strategic Conflict Resolution for UAS Traffic Management

open access: yes2023 IEEE/AIAA 42nd Digital Avionics Systems Conference (DASC), 2023
In this paper, we present a strategic conflict resolution method based on the conflict probability estimation, in the context of Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Traffic Management. We first elaborate a classic approach for flight trajectory generation in a designated realistic airspace environment, which is then smoothed by B-spline algorithm to achieve

A model to quantify the probability of collision between birds and aircraft: Applications for onboard lighting

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.
Abstract Globally, bird and aircraft collisions are a major safety hazard and monetary expense for the aviation industry. Empirical evidence suggests that the behavioral response of an animal within close proximity of an approaching vehicle is a critical factor in determining whether a collision occurs.

Addressing Complexity in System of Systems With GraphRAG: An AI‐Driven Framework for Dynamic Data Integration

open access: yesSystems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 150-168, March 2026.
ABSTRACT System of Systems (SoS) environments are inherently complex, involving numerous operationally and managerially independent component systems with hidden interdependencies and frequent interactions based on unstructured data. In this paper, we propose using graphical Retrieval‐Augmented Generation (GraphRAG), a tool that combines large language

Development of Hierarchical UAS Traffic Management (UTM) in Taiwan

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract The unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will soon be legally flying into airspace in Taiwan and many countries. UAS traffic management (UTM) becomes an important issue to challenge aviation safety. A hierarchical UTM is proposed and constructed based on the concept of Air Traffic Management (ATM) for the manned aviation system.

Designing Statewide Drone Delivery Networks in Rural Contexts: A Multiobjective Approach

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Last‐mile parcel delivery remains a major challenge in rural areas where unpaved roads, long travel distances, and sparse demand limit the efficiency of truck‐based logistics. This study evaluates the use of cargo drones as a replacement for trucks, focusing on the design of a statewide delivery network supported by multimodal hubs.
