Simons, D.G. (author), Besnea, I. (author), Mohammadloo, Tannaz H. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author), Snellen, M. (author)The impressive growth of the aviation industry and the number of flights entail several environmental repercussions, such as increased aircraft noise emissions. With the worrying number of complaints from the communities around airports comes also the distrust in numerical models used for aircraft noise prediction. In this study, we compare...journal article 2022

Rans, C.D. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author), Saunders-Smits, Gillian (author)This paper presents two major elements of a course redesign with the aim to strengthen the connection between engineering design and engineering analysis. The course, Aircraft Structural Design and Analysis, had previously been delivered with a heavy focus on mathematical analysis and solving complex problems. It was observed, however, that...conference paper 2019

Cervone, A. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author), Mebus, L.F.M. (author), Saunders-Smits, Gillian (author)Blended education, or “flipping the classroom” is rapidly becoming a mainstream form of teaching within universities. Within Engineering Education, it is popular as it allows more time in-class to focus on hands on activities such as demonstrations and solving complex problems. This paper discusses the effort conducted to restructure, according...journal article 2016

Melkert, J.A. (author)The design synthesis exercise forms the closing piece of the third year of the Bachelor degree curriculum of the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft. In this exercise the students learn to apply their acquired knowledge from all aerospace disciplines in one complete design. The object of this exercise is to improve the students’ design...journal article 2013

Snijders, T.A. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author)Prior to being used in aviation, alternative fuels have to be tested thoroughly to ensure safe operation. At Delft University of Technology, a test programme was performed to evaluate the safety, performance and emissions of synthetic fuel blends. During test preparations, compatibility of the synthetic fuel with the aircraft, a Cessna Citation...conference paper 2011

Snijders, T.A. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author)The radiative forcing caused by the emissions of jet aircraft is calculated using data from an aircraft performance model. Data from the performance model is needed to calculate the emissions of the aircraft. The sensitivity function and lifetime of the emitted gasses and particles are used to calculate the integrated radiative forcing of the...conference paper 2011

Snijders, T.A. (author), Melkert, J.A. (author)The search for alternative fuels has lead to a number of possibilities. The most promising alternative fuels for the short term are drop-in fuels such as synthetic fuel and hydrotreated renewable jet. These fuels are similar to Jet A-1 but some differences are present. Synthetic fuels are produced using a process that results in a fuel without...conference paper 2011
