현재 자동차 산업은 내연기관에서 전기차 시스템으로 접어들고 있다. 전 세계적으로 탄소 중립 정책이 이를 가속화하고 있으며, 자동차 제조사들은 기존 내연기관 시스템으로는 불가능했던 기술들을 개발하고 있다. 대부분의 전기차에는 PMSM이 적용되고 있는데 부피가 크고 무거우며 토크 밀도가 낮다는 단점이 있다. AFPM은 기존 PMSM의 단점을 개선한 모터로, 부피와 무게가 작으며 토크밀도가 높다는 장점이 있어 전기차의 In-Wheel Motor System과 UAM에 적용되는 모터이다. 하지만 전기차는 도로 주행만 가능하고 UAM은 비행만 할 수 있기 때문에, 미래 모빌리티인 전기자동차와 UAM이 통합된 모빌리티를 개발하고자 한다. 본 과제에 적용되는 AFPM모터는 PMSM의 단점을 보완할 수 있기 때문에 전기차-UAM 트랜스포밍 모빌리티의 모터로 적합하다. 이 모빌리티는 자동차와 UAM의 역할을 모두 수행할 수 있어 효율적인 이동을 돕고 도시의 교통 인프라 문제를 완화할 수 있다.

In order for future UAVs to be used as means of transportation, a simulation environment in which they can be tested in advance is essential. Accordingly, to demonstrate future air transport systems among six future industries of Chungcheongbuk-do, a simulation environment was condensed and built, focusing on virtual safety corridor connecting Osong Station and Cheongju Airport.

Rapid urbanization is rapidly progressing around the world, and urban problems such as traffic congestion, environmental pollution, and noise pollution are emerging, due to this urban concentration phenomenon, logistics and transportation costs are increasing. Urban Air Mobility(UAM) is a three-dimensional futuristic urban transportation that is expected to become an important transportation axis of smart cities as a service(MaaS) linked to roads, railways, and personal transportation. However, as of July 2023, research on airspace systems, Bertieport design, navigation, and communication for UAM operation is actively being conducted, but little research has been conducted on the concept of pilot education and training and education and training programs. Therefore, this paper aims to present a suitable plan for the domestic pilot training system through SWOT analysis of vertical takeoff and landing(VTOL) pilot education and training programs in the United States and Europe.

In this study, we have intended to precisely analyze the aspect of propagation and the extent of damage due to the traffic noise as hon as a main source of noise in urban area. The propagation of traffic noise has a strong relationship between distance and shape of surface. Thus, it is necessary to consider the distribution of buildings for estimating effects of noise in urban area because noise propagations will be affected by buildings. For this, we developed the DEM and DBM using the airborne LiDAR data in the study area and compared with results from the noise simulations using the each model. The extent of damage occurred by the traffic noise above 60 dB(A) from the case of DEM were shown at the 60% of a whole study area, whereas the extent from other case of DBM were shown at the 30% of a whole study area. Also, the extent of the noise levels between 45 dB(A) and 50 dB(A) will be generally recognized as calm environment was increased(the 0% to the 43%) in the case which simulated with building informations. These results indicated that the shape informations of buildings like a DBM is a essential source to simulate the propagation of traffic noise in urban area especially. With results in this study, the effect of traffic noise at a specific area will be easily and precisely estimated if we have the LiDAR data and a traffic census for Korea. Furthermore specific area's traffic noise simulation could be possible using only road traffic information once we have DBM data from LiDAR surveying. This also could be applied as a base data for noise pollution petitioning, traffic planning, construction, etc. in huge city planning projects like a U-City.

This numerical study conducts the modeling and the hover performance analyses of coaxial co-rotating rotor(or stacked rotor), using a rotorcraft comprehensive analysis code, CAMRAD II. The important design parameters such as the index angle and axial spacing for the coaxial co-rotating rotor are varied in this simulation study. The coaxial co-rotating rotor is trimmed using the torque value of the upper rotor of the previous coaxial counter-rotating rotor or the total thrust value of the previous coaxial counter-rotating rotor in hover. The maximum increases in the rotor thrust is 1.84% for the index angle of -10° when using the torque trim approach. In addition, the maximum decreases in the rotor power is 4.53% for the index angle of 20° with the thrust trim method. Thus, the present study shows that the hover performance of the coaxial co-rotating rotor for e-VTOL aircraft can be changed by the index angle.

Urban air mobility (UAM) is being developed as part of the next-generation aircraft, which could be a viable solution to entrenched problems of urban traffic congestion and environmental pollution. A new airport platform called vertiport as a space where UAM can take off and land vertically is also being introduced. Noise regulations for UAM will be strict due to its operation in a highly populated urban area. Ground effects caused by vertiport can directly affect aerodynamic forces and noise characteristics of UAM. In this study, ground effects of vertiport on aerodynamic loads, vorticity field, and far-field noise were analyzed using Lattice-Boltzmann Method (LBM) simulation and Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FW-H) acoustic analogy with a permeable surface method.

Recently, the concept of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) has expanded to Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). A tilt rotor type of vertical take-off and landing aircraft has been actively studied and developed. A tilt-rotor aircraft can perform a transition flight between vertical and horizontal flights. A blade pitch angle control system can be used for flight stability during transition flight time. In addition, Individual Blade Control (IBC) can reduce noise and vibration generated in transition flight. This paper proposed Disturbance Observer Based Control (DOBC) and Time Delay Control (TDC) for individual blade control of an Electro-Mechanical Actuator (EMA) based blade pitch angle control system. To compare and analyze proposed controllers, numerical simulations were conducted with DOBC and TDC.

Various studies suggest that the initial operating form of UAM, which is being presented as a solution to the urban traffic problem, will be similar to VTOL aircraft among current aircraft. In a form similar to determining the direction of the runway where fixed-wing aircraft take off and land, the vertiport where take-off and landing of VTOL aircraft takes place determines the flight direction of departure and arrival in consideration of the direction of the wind. Unlike areas where airports are generally built, in the case of downtown areas, it is expected that the characteristics of wind may continuously change depending on the environment of changing terrain or obstacles such as the construction of new buildings. In this study, long-term actual observation data for reviewing the take-off and landing directions at the city center where the location of the vertiport is expected are compared using a wind speed map, and the characteristics of the ground wind and the possibility of change in the direction of the predominant wind depending on the observation period and observation location confirmed.

Information sharing and decision making between airport stakeholders became possible after the introduction of airport cooperative making system (A-CDM). This also resulted in optimizing aircraft handling time and increased the efficiency of aircraft operations. Technological advances have recently led to the development of urban air mobility (UAM) which is a small aircraft taking off and landing vertically. It is emerging as a new air transportation system in the future due to its advantage of saving time and solving congestion problem in the urban area. This study aims to suggest how vertiport cooperative decision making system (V-CDM) should be managed for efficient operation of UAM. By establishing procedure for decision making system based on Vertiport ecosystem of UAM. By establishing procedure for decision making system based on Vertiport ecosystem and UAM aircraft, unnecessary flight delays or cancellations can be minimized and efficiency of UAM operation will be improved as well.
