Capacity Assessment and Analysis of Vertiports Based on Simulation

Sustainability, 2023
City air traffic as a new transportation mode has gradually attracted attention in recent years which will bring endless vitality to future urban development. An objective and accurate assessment of the vertiport capacity for UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) is the basis for implementing air traffic flow management for UAVs, which is also a prerequisite

Hybrid Deep Learning‐Based Networks for Deterministic and Probabilistic Wind Nowcasting Within a Wake Vortex Warning System for Vertiport Operations

Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
This paper proposes an innovative framework for deterministic and probabilistic wind nowcasting consisting of various machine learning methods. The reliable short‐term wind predictions drive the Wake Vortex Warning System for Vertiports (WVWS‐V), which may enable safe air‐taxi operations at major airports. ABSTRACT Accurate wind prediction is essential

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

Systems 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

Estimating Atmospheric Turbulence Intensity From Cup Anemometer Data

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Conventional cup anemometers are widely used but limited by coarse sampling in representing turbulence. To address this, we introduce a cumulative spectral density (CSD) approach that quantifies turbulence contributions from 1‐min wind speed records while explicitly accounting for aliasing.
