ATM-X: Air Traffic Management – eXploration: Urban Air Mobility Overview

The UAM market is expected to be big in the billions of dollars. And, of course, UAM will need to be able to readily access and operate in the airspace for this to happen. In the ATM-X UAM sub-project, we are focused on NASA’s top-level goal of enabling UAM Maturity Level-4 (UML-4) operational density and complexity, with hundreds of simultaneous operations in a metropolitan area managed through a UTM-like architecture with third-party provided traffic management services. We are doing this by developing a concept of operations with the FAA and the UAM community that serves as a framework and guide for community research and development. We are also doing this by conducting research to define system requirements based on the concept and developing the UAM airspace management system for the AAM National Campaign.

Trajectory Simulation for Air Traffic Management Employing a Multirotor Urban Air Mobility Aircraft Model

This paper describes a point-mass model of a multirotor electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft designed to carry up to five passengers and a pilot. The model employs thrust, thrust vector angle and bank angle as controls, which are computed in part using the acceleration, heading-angle rate, and flight-path-angle rate generated by control systems in response to speed, heading angle, and flight-path angle commands. The equations of motion are integrated forward in time using the controls needed for following the desired vertical climb/descent and speed profiles, and horizontal path and cruise speed in the presence of wind to generate the flight trajectory.

Properties of air and combustion products of fuels with air

Thermodynamic and transport properties include ratio of specific heats, molecular weight, viscosity, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and Prandtl number. Properties are calculated from 300 to 2500 degrees K and for pressures of three and ten atmospheres.

An adaptive maneuvering logic computer program for the simulation of one-to-one air-to-air combat. Volume 2: Program description

A detailed description is presented of the computer programs in order to provide an understanding of the mathematical and geometrical relationships as implemented in the programs. The individual sbbroutines and their underlying mathematical relationships are described, and the required input data and the output provided by the program are explained. The relationship of the adaptive maneuvering logic program with the program to drive the differential maneuvering simulator is discussed.
