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

open access: yesRegulation &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

On a fair and risk‐averse urban air mobility resource allocation problem under demand and capacity uncertainties

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 111-132, February 2025.
Abstract Urban air mobility (UAM) is an emerging air transportation mode to alleviate the ground traffic burden and achieve zero direct aviation emissions. Due to the potential economic scaling effects, the UAM traffic flow is expected to increase dramatically once implemented, and its market can be substantially large.
