Sepulcri, Andrea (author)
Recurrent training is crucial to helping pilots maintain or upgrade their flying skills. However, constantly monitoring and scrutinising pilots during training can lead to performance pressure. If pilots who are under pressure feel that their behaviour is affected it may ultimately reduce the effectiveness of recurrent training. To study the...

The aviation industry's shift towards sustainable propulsion, notably hydrogen-electric propulsion (HEPS), underscores the need to grasp its effects on flight procedures and pilot duties. This research aims to develop a HEPS engine powertrain model for evaluating its influence on flight procedures, especially during critical phases like go...

The introduction of Trajectory Based Operations (TBO) is set to change the operation on all levels of Air Traffic Control (ATC), including aerodrome control. Here, adherence to a planned four-dimensional trajectory is important to achieve a stable operation. At the same time, this concept provides possibilities for support tools to be used in...

Haptic shared controllers (HSCs) are a promising solution to prevent human over-reliance on automation during tasks such as car driving. However, research has shown that if the HSC is tuned incorrectly, then there is a risk of haptic conflicts between the human and HSC. To address this challenge, this paper presents the design and implementation...

Roll reversal errors, where the pilot tries to steer the aircraft back to wings-level but unintentionally increases the bank angle instead, have contributed to several accidents. Previous studies have shown that these errors can be caused by misinterpreting the attitude indicator (AI), with the figure-ground relations cited as contributing to...

Spatial disorientation (SD) is one of the main causes of incidents and accidents in aviation. While most studies have investigated the effect of SD on the control task, we tested the effect of SD on cognitive performance in an operationally representative environment.<br/>Thirteen Dutch military helicopter pilots flew scenarios with six...

Today, most fatal accidents in commercial aviation are caused by loss of control in flight. Due to the increased reliance on automation and pilots being moved out of the loop, startling and surprising events can be contributing factors. To more effectively train pilots, startle and surprise are to be included in training scenario’s. A subjective...

While human control behavior is well-understood in continuous control tasks, little is known about how human operators detect sudden changes in the controlled element dynamics. This paper focuses on modeling this detection phase for pursuit tracking tasks. Potential triggers for the human operator to detect changes in the controlled element...

The joint management of airspace by human controllers and automated agents is gaining prevalence in nextgeneration Air Traffic Control (ATC). In such settings, human controllers are challenged with maintaining situation awareness while dealing with intricate and often opaque automated technologies. This study probed the potential of a concept...

Autonomous vehicles are becoming increasingly prevalent in society, but the transition from active driver to passive passenger is known to increase the risk and severity of motion sickness. Motion anticipation is a critical factor in this difference, and visual information is known to be a major contributor to motion anticipation. However, the...

This study investigated the effect of manual and autopilot control on hazard and failure detection in aviation, in cases where the autopilot can masks or diminishes cues of aircraft movement. This mechanism could result in loss of situation awareness, upsets and ultimately accidents. Twenty airline pilots participated in an experiment in which...

This study explored several anticipatory interfaces as motion sickness mitigation tool in autonomously driving vehicles. The interfaces were designed to lower the mismatch between the expected motion and the sensory input in a moving body, by providing anticipatory information on upcoming vehicle motion. The two proposed interfaces were a Light...

The Dutch Air Traffic Control has implemented fixed approach trajectories within approach control during night operations when traffic density is low. During the day, when traffic density is higher, vector-based operations are used. The Dutch Air Traffic Control aims to implement fixed approach trajectories when traffic density is high. This...

The interest in developing electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles has increased sharply in recent years. A concern for passenger acceptance of the new type of vehicle is that people may experience motion sickness. This is because eVTOL flight profiles are different from the motion conditions that people have previously...

Startle and surprise training interventions developed and tested in previous research have shown how falling back to mnemonic aid procedures when experiencing an unexpected event during flight can ameliorate the effects of startle and surprise responses. The current research follows up on the recommendations provided by Van Middelaar et al. on...

In current spatial orientation models, vertical acceleration (heave) is not coupled with pilot pitch perception, although such a coupling may be present. Therefore, in this study it is investigated whether a heave cue can increase perceived pitch in pilots.<br/><br/>Airline pilots (n = 20) performed a pitch perception task in a hexapod simulator...

The Delft University of Technology (’TU Delft’) developed a real-time distributed system for scientific and educational purposes. Because of the high level of expertise required to learn from- and work in a real-time environment, TU Delft created a middleware layer, DUECA (Delft University Environment for Communication and Activation), and a...

It has been shown that expert gaze behavior can be used to enhance training for novices, among others in the field of laparoscopic surgery. The research in this paper focused on the effect of changing pilot gaze behavior on flight performance and detection task performance. Two groups of novices were shown a recording of expert behavior,...
