Urban airspace traffic density estimation
WRAP
An open-source kinematic aircraft performance model
Open access to flight data from Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) has provided researchers with more insights for air traffic management than aircraft tracking alone. With large quantities of trajectory data collected from a wide range of different aircraft ty ...
Capacity of a constrained urban airspace
Influencing factors, analytical modelling and simulations
The traffic density of small aerial vehicles operating within urban environments is expected to increase significantly in the near future. This urban environment is highly constrained due to being limited to the low-altitude airspace directly above the existing road network. M ...
OpenAP
An open-source aircraft performance model for air transportation studies and simulations
Air traffic simulations serve as common practice to evaluate different concepts and methods for air transportation studies. The aircraft performance model is a key element that supports these simulation-based studies. It is also an important component for simulation-independen ...

Benefits of Centralised Separation Management in High-Density Urban Airspace
Flying by Feeling
Communicating Flight Envelope Protection through Haptic Feedback
Modern aircraft can be equipped with a flight envelope protection system: automation which modifies pilot control inputs to ensure that the aircraft remains within the allowable limits. Overruling the pilot inputs may lead to mode confusion, even when visual or auditory feedba ...
Just Feeling the Force
Just Noticeable Difference for Asymmetric Vibrations
Previous research showed that haptic feedback, in the form of asymmetric vibrations, can be used to provide directional cues to the operator in a laboratory setting. Nevertheless, it is unclear how these vibrations should be designed for pilots controlling their aircraft using ...

Accuracy of Conflict Count Models
Analyzing the effect of traffic scenario on conflict count models for unstructured and layered airspaces.
Neural Network Based Generation of Reactionary Dance Improvisations
"M’AI have this dance?" or "How to train your DRA-GAN"
This MSc. thesis presents the extensive research conducted on designing neural networks capable of generating reactionary dance motions. The research was conducted in collaboration with Stichting Another kind of Blue (AKOB) and CompactCopters UG (CC). It is s ...

Weather-adaptive noise abatement procedures
Using optimal control theory
The most common operational measure in aviation to reduce the effect of environmental noise pollution is noise abatement procedures. Noise abatement procedures are recommended flying techniques based on noise optimal trajectories, which aim at reducing the no ...
High capacity Continuous Descent Operations
A case study of Amsterdam airport Schiphol
Defining airspace quality
A new metric for defining air traffic situation quality in a defined airspace based on geometric traffic properties
Predicting 4D trajectories of aircraft using neural networks and gradient boosting machines
A data-driven aircraft trajectory prediction study
Detecting ATC commands in ADS-B data
An exploratory research into ADS-B data to see if detecting ATC commands is possible
Metropolis II
Investigating the Future Shape of Air Traffic Control in Highly Dense Urban Airspace
Metropolis II aims to provide insights in what is needed to enable high-density urban air operations. It does this by investigating the foundation for U-space U3/U4 services. The final goal is to provide a unified approach for strategic deconfliction, tactical deconfliction, a ...
