Borst, C. (author)The upgrade of the flight deck instruments from electro-mechanical dials and gauges towards computer-driven systems and interfaces was a necessary step to accommodate the increasing demands in flight technical performance and safety. The upgrade was a relatively slow process, however, where new systems were developed and installed as soon as the...doctoral thesis 2009

Le Ngoc, L. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, M. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author)The usage of heads-down, non-conformal synthetic vision displays for landings below minimums has inherent problems during the flare due to minification effects. Literature showed that pilots can use four visual cues to perform a manual flare maneuver. Amongst their strategies, the Jacobson flare method seemed the most suitable to provide flare...conference paper 2010

Falkena, W. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, J.A. (author)Personal air transportation utilizing small aircraft is a market that is expected to grow significantly in the future. For this segment, “stick and rudder” related accidents should be mitigated to guide this process in a safe manner. Instead of downscaling advanced and expensive fly-by-wire platforms that incorporate flight envelope protection...conference paper 2010

Rijneveld, P. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, M. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author)Future airspace operations will allow flight crews to plan and fly their own preferred route and time of arrival without much intervention from air traffic control. This implies that pilots become more responsible for planning their own route while maintaining safe separation. This requires a strategic planning tool that support a high level of...conference paper 2010

Van den Hoven, M.C.L. (author), De Jong, P.M.A. (author), Borst, C. (author), Mulder, M. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author)This paper covers an analysis of the energy management task during the approach phase as well as the design of an experiment supporting this analysis. The energy management task is analyzed using the concept of energy rate demand, which expresses the amount of total energy to be lost in comparison to the minimal energy rate the aircraft can...conference paper 2010

Using 4D trajectories, the full positional and time coordinates of the aircraft are known throughout the planned trajectory. During approach, when reduced...conference paper 2011

Sopjes, R. (author), De Jong, P.M.A. (author), Borst, C. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, M. (author)In order to reduce noise nuisance around Schiphol Airport, a Continuous Descent Approach procedure was introduced in the late ’90s. Unfortunately, because unpredictable individual aircraft behavior lead to increased landing intervals for this procedure, it is currently only applied during night time operations. Time-of-Arrival control in the...conference paper 2011

Mertens, M. (author), Damveld, H.J. (author), Borst, C. (author)In many cockpits, control display units (CDUs) are vital input and information devices. In order to improve the usability of these devices, Barco, in cooperation with TU-Delft, created a touch screen control unit (TSCU), consisting of a high-quality multi-touch screen. The unit fits in the standard dimensions of a conventional CDU and is thus...conference paper 2012

As a case study, a general ground surveillance mission with four UAVs is envisioned. An analysis of the swarming work domain is performed to generate a reduced set of means-end...conference paper 2014

Pinto, J. (author), Klomp, R.E. (author), Borst, C. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, M. (author)The concept of trajectory-based operations as proposed by SESAR and NextGen seeks to increase airspace efficiency and capacity by introducing time as an explicit control variable. Such form of operations lean heavily on the introduction of higher levels of automation to support the human air traffic controller in performing this new task. In...conference paper 2015

Mercado Velasco, G.A. (author), Borst, C. (author)Several studies have investigated Air Traffic Control (ATC) complexity metrics in a search for a metric that could best capture workload. These studies have shown how daunting the search for a universal workload metric (one that could be applied in different contexts: sectors, traffic patterns, controllers, or ATC tasks) can be. We propose that...conference paper 2015

Abdul Rahman, S.M.B. (author), Borst, C. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Air traffc controller workload is an important impediment to air transport growth. Several approaches exist that aim to better understand the causes for workload, and models have been derived to predict workload in new operational settings. These methods often relate workload to the diffculty, or complexity, that an average controller would have...journal article 2016

A prerequisite for the success of such automation is that the underlying data driving it is reliable.
