Compressive Properties Of Zone-Directionally Solidified Β-Nial And Its Off-Eutectic Alloys With Chromium And Tungsten, R. Asthana, R. Tiwari, Surendra N. Tewari

Chemical & Biomedical Engineering Faculty Publications

The ordered intermetallic compound β-NiAl and its pseudo-binary off-eutectic alloys with 1 at.% tungsten and 9.7 at.% chromium were directionally solidified (DS) in the ‘floating-zone’ mode, and tested for compressive strength and fracture behavior in the temperature range 300–800 K. The dual-phase structures created by the DS of ternary NiAl alloys led to improvements in both the compressive strength and the ductility. The room-temperature (300 K) 0.2% compressive yield strength (CYS) of DS NiAl(W) (623 MPa) is larger than the CYS of DS NiAl(Cr) (565 MPa) and DS NiAl (435 MPa). The CYS of the three alloys dropped …

Design And Development Of Interactive Moodle Using Design Thinking To Support Online Learning, Yan Amal Abdillah, Ika Qutsiati Utami, Wahyu Beny Mukti Setiyawan, Mochammad Rizal Pratama, Indra Resya Afani, Ari Yohana Pramesti

Elinvo (Electronics, Informatics, and Vocational Education)

Moodle is an open-source learning management system (LMS) or e-learning platform that is designed to help educators create online courses with various features to facilitate learning. Interest in this research area has increased significantly in recent years, leading to an increasing number of schools employing this LMS. In the early stages of the development process, schools need to gain insights into user needs and generate new ideas for designing and developing interactive LMS. In this light, Design Thinking (DT) is viewed as an important approach. This study aimed to design and develop an online learning system based on Moodle to …

Compliance With Wildlife Hazard Regulations: An Air Carrier’S Perspective, Vern Berry

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

As a safety professional at Evergreen International Airlines, I have first-hand experience of the damage caused by wildlife. Seven major bird strikes have cost Evergreen approximately $20 million in damages and lost revenue over a 5-year period. These events often occurred during critical phases of flight. For example, one Evergreen B-747 suffered severe damage to engine and pylon structure with subsequent loss of control during climb. You cannot train for every possible aircraft failure induced by bird strikes. The time will come, with or without the collection of additional bird-strike statistics, when damage from a bird strike will exceed the …

Implementation Of Gis Technology To Detect Wildlife Hazards At Airports, Michelle L. Gray

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

The use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for displaying spatial data is a well established technique widely used by many professions, especially natural resources. Environmental and engineering departments at many civil and military airports also use GIS to aid in planning new construction and future development. These same techniques can be applied at airports to create maps that visually portray the occurrence and location of wildlife hazardous to aircraft. At Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina, USDA Wildlife Services uses this technology to analyze and display wildlife activity on grid maps. Wildlife observations are maintained in a database …

Reported Bird Strikes At Down-State Illinois Airports, Michael W. Rapps

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

Land-use restrictions in the vicinity of airports are increasingly employed as a means to reduce bird strikes on aircraft. Yet, in the absence of controlled studies, the link between land usage and bird strikes is largely anecdotal. In seeking a connection between bird strikes and land use, the records of reported bird strikes from the years 1990-2001 were examined for 28 airports in down-state Illinois. For each airport it was noted whether land use within 6 miles of the airports included large bodies of water or wetlands, wildlife sanctuaries, golf courses, landfills, shopping venues with food concessions, or croplands. Because …

Bird Strikes In Courts: The Genoa Case, Valter Battistoni

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

There have not been many court cases, be it criminal or civil, concerning accidents, or even compensation for damages, following bird strikes. Generally, those involved prefer to reach an agreement out of court. The first court sentence in Italy on this subject was pronounced by the Civil Court of Genoa in 2001. The carrier had sued a number of entities (Ministry of Transport, Airport Operator, Air Traffic Control Agency) for damages resulting from a multiple impact between a BAE 146 and a flock of gulls (Larus sp.) that occurred on 7 June 1989 at Genoa Airport. On that occasion …

Monte-Carlo Simulation Of Birdstrike To Support Rule Making For Large Birds, Julian M. Reed

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

A clear need was established by the aero-engine manufacturers and the certifying authorities for a re-assessment of the published rules governing engine certification for large flocking birds. A task group was set up to address this need at the beginning of 2000. Early in this program, it was determined that a statistical approach to the rule making was required and the Monte-Carlo technique was proposed and accepted. This paper discusses the implementation of the Monte-Carlo technique to simulate bird strike events from the Rolls-Royce viewpoint and describes the various refinements that have been made in order to ensure an adequate …

Aircraft Engines And Large Flocking Birds, Richard Parker

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

This paper will present a summary of the results of the ARAC (engine) Bird Ingestion Phase II rule making effort. The effort was to evaluate the hazard to transport category aircraft, of large flocking birds, and to revise the engine certification requirements as appropriate. The paper will discuss the revision to engine certification requirements. It will also discuss the recommendation of the task group regarding the importance of continuing effort for bird control at the airport.

Birdstrike Identification (Poster), Carla Dove

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

Identification of feather evidence retrieved from birdstrikes provides essential information that allows airfield managers, engineers, pilots and government agencies to work together to prevent damaging birdstrikes. Knowing the identity of the birds that are causing problems is the first step in formulating a plan to discourage birds from interfering with aviation safety. The feather identification process is complex and involves cleaning feather material, microscopic examination, and whole feather comparisons with specimens in a museum collection. This poster presents the feather identification technique and provides information to various agencies on how and where to send birdstrike remains for identification.

Status Of North American Canada Goose Populations (Poster), John L. Seubert

Bird Strike Committee-USA/Canada Joint Annual Meeting: 4th (2002)

North American Canada goose (Branta canadensis) populations continue to increase, causing potentially greater hazard to aviation. There is greater interest by biologist and aviation interests in monitoring the status of these populations because of the increasing number of Canada goose strikes to aircraft. Waterfowl in North America are managed in four administrative flyways – the Atlantic, Mississippi, Central, and Pacific. Goose numbers in these flyways are based on mid-winter or breeding period counts. The Canada goose count for North America in 2000 was 5,728,000—61% were the large resident geese. The resident component of the population has increased more …
