It is well known that the polymer matrix composite materials have good specific strength, making them appropriate for use in transport vehicle. Since the property of composite materials can be obtained only after manufacturing parts, the property depends on greatly on the fabrication process, which is different from metallic system. Therefore, in order to use composite materials for aircraft, the certifying agency requires a robust database with extensive tests and proof of the process unlike metals. Recently developed material qualification methodology by NCAMP (National Center for Advanced Materials Performance) has been accepted by FAA and EASA and can be applied to type certificate reducing time and cost of developing a composite materials database for aircraft application. This paper summarizes a study to establish the composite materials database to apply the NCAMP methodology to composite materials characterization for composite aircraft and to provide the effective materials database through Aerospace Composite Materials Data Center to be approved by Korea Civil Aviation Certification Agency.

Safety is the first priority in civil aviation, and so the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has introduced and mandated the use of Safety Management Systems (SMS) by airlines, airports, air traffic services, aircraft maintenance organizations, and training organizations. The aircraft manufacturing industry is the last for which ICAO has mandated the implementation of SMS. Since SMS is a somewhat newer approach for most manufacturers in the aviation industry, they hardly believe in the value of implementing SMS. The management of safety risk characteristics that occur during early aircraft development stages and the systematic linkage that the safety risk has to do with an aircraft in service could have a significant influence on the safe operation and life cycle of the aircraft. This paper conducts a case analysis of the McDonnell Douglas MD-11 accident/incident to identify the root causes and safety risk levels, and also verified why aircraft manufacturing industry should begin to adopt SMS in order to prevent aircraft accident.

고양력장치는 항공기의 이착륙 및 실속성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러므로, 이 논문에서는 주어진 2차원 플랩 형상에 대하여 가장 최적화된 플랩 위치와 변위각을 얻는 슬롯티드 플랩 설계 최적화 프로세스을 제안하였다. 플랩 변위각 및 Gap, Overlap을 양력을 증가시키는 주요 변수로 생각하였고, 정확한 해석결과를 위해 공력해석 소프트웨어로 ANSYS Fluent 13.0.0$^{(R)}$을 사용하였다. 최적화된 형상은 SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) 알고리즘을 통해 도출됐으며, 최적화된 플랩과 함께 ADSP(Aircraft Design Synthesis Program) in-house 성능해석 코드를 사용하여 항공기의 성능을 시험하였고, 이착륙 거리, 실속속도 등의 성능변수들이 KAS-VLA 인증규정을 만족하는 결과를 얻었다.

본 논문에서는 풍동 실험을 통해 측정한 소음 결과를 활용하여 실제 비행하는 기체에서 발생되는 소음수준을 예측하고 비행시험을 통해 검증하는 과정을 다루었다. 항공기의 환경소음 평가를 위해서는 일반적으로 국제민간항공기구(이하 ICAO)에서 규정한 절차에 따라 소음시험 및 평가를 수행하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 고정익 및 회전익(멀티콥터)의 특징을 모두 가지고 있는 복합형 기체에 적용이 가능한 환경 소음평가 방안과 실험을 통해 검증한 결과를 제시하였다. 고정익과 회전익 소형 무인기를 활용하여 풍동실험에서 측정한 소음시험 결과를 실제 비행 시험결과로 시뮬레이션 하는 과정을 제시하였다. 또한, ICAO에서 제시하는 비행 운용조건 및 소음 측정 방법을 고려하여 풍동실험을 통한 결과와 실 기체 비행시험을 모두 수행하여 항공기 소음인증을 위한 실효감각소음레벨(EPNL)을 예측 및 고찰하였다.

This paper presents guidelines for the verification test on electromagnetic environmental effects of a commercial derivative military aircraft. To prove the safety-of-flight of a renovated aircraft and appropriate working of electronic system/device, E3 test and analysis at the system level should be performed prior to its operations on real warfare. For the aircraft modified with Falcon 2000S, we concentrate on intra-system EMC, EMRADHAZ (Electromagnetic Radiation Hazards), electrical bonding, P-Static as test and lightning as analysis from a airworthiness certification point of view based on MIL-STD-464, MIL-HDBK-516. As a result, it is verified that the modified aircraft has enough electromagnetic compatibility capabilities under EME(Electromagnetic Environment). In the process, test and analysis methods considering shielding effectiveness(SE) are applied.

도심환경에서 저공해/저소음으로 운항이 요구되는 eVTOL 항공기는 왕복행정엔진이나 터빈엔진과 같은 전통적인 추진시스템이 아닌 대부분 배터리를 이용한 전기추진시스템을 동력원으로 사용한다. 이에 따라 전기추진시스템에 대한 인증제도 마련 및 전기추진시스템의 안전성 확보방안이 중요한 이슈가 되고있다. 미국의 경우 전기추진시스템을 인증하기 위해 FAR Part 33에 준하는 특수기술기준을 발행하였고 유럽의 경우 전기추진시스템의 인증을 위해 다양한 특별조건을 제정하였다. 따라서 국내에도 미국, 유럽에 맞춰가며 eVTOL 항공기 전기추진시스템 기술기준에 대한 대비가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 특별조건 중 전기/하이브리드 추진 시스템의 기술기준인 SC E-19를 분석하였고 기존 항공기 안전성 평가 절차인 ARP 4761에 항공기 수준에서 적용 되어야하는 SC E-19 기술기준을 적용시킴으로써 항공기에 장착하는 전기추진시스템의 안전성 확보 방안을 제안하였다. 마지막으로 Ehang 184 전기추진시스템의 사례연구를 통해 제안한 전기추진시스템의 안전성 확보 방안이 항공기 수준에서 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.

Integrated aircraft synthesis process for rapid analysis and design is described in this paper. Data flow between different analysis fields is described in details. All the data are divided into several groups according to importance and source of the data. Analysis of design requirements and certification regulations is carried out to determine baseline configuration of an aircraft. Overall design process can be divided into initial sizing, conceptual and preliminary design phases. Basic data for conceptual design are obtained from initial sizing, CAD and geometry analysis. Basic data are required input for weight, aerodynamics and propulsion analyses. Results of this analysis are used for stability and control, performance, mission, and load analysis. Feasibility of design is verified based on analysis results of each discipline. Design optimization that involves integrated process for aircraft analysis is performed to determine optimum configuration of an aircraft on a conceptual design stage. The process presented in this paper was verified to be used for light aircraft design.

Nowadays, the demand of civil application of an UAV has been being increased all over the world. And many projects are going on to develop a new regulatory system for an UAV to access a national airspace. Especially, to fly UAV over the non-restricted airspace as a standard airworthiness standard, many authority funded research institutes and associations are studying regulatory environment. For the UAV to access civil airspace, the certification system of the aviation regulation have to allow this. FAA of US, CASA of Australia and European authorities are now issuing an experimental airworthiness certificate to a civil UAV. This is the first step of issuing a standard airworthiness certificate. And many people believe that civil UAV can fly over a NAS if some technical issues are resolved. In this study, I would like to present an international trends of a civil UAV regulation system, reliability trend of unmanned aerial system and would like to bring up a our regulatory environment and suggest an UAV regulatory policy.

Manned aircraft structural design is based on structural safety factor of 1.5, and this safety factor is equivalent to a probability of failure of between 10-2 and 10-3. The target failure probability of FARs is between 10-6 and 10-9 per flight according to aircraft type. NATO released STANAG 4703 to established the airworthiness requirements for small UAV which is less than 150kg. STANAG 4703 requires the Target Level of Safety according to MTOW. The requirements of failure probability for small UAV is between 10-4 and 10-5. In this paper, requirements of airworthiness certification for small UAV were investigated and the relationship of safety factors to the probability of structural failure is analyzed to reduce measure of safety factor and structural weight of unmanned aircraft.
