Safety, Reliability and Airworthiness Requirement for Low-altitude Aerial Vehicle

课程简介

/ Indicative Syllabus Lower Airspace Regulation and Policy - introduce the lower airspace environment, explore legal and regulatory frameworks governing operations, delve into international standards and best practices, examine airspace management and access, and analyse policy and economic considerations. Stakeholder Interests and Collaboration - focus on analysing the diverse interests of stakeholders involved in lower airspace activities, including operators, manufacturers, regulators, and communities. Students will explore industry perspectives, regulatory perspectives, community concerns, and collaboration strategies for successful integration. Certification and Manufacturing in UAV/eVTOL Development -introduce overview of manufacturing techniques of low- altitude aerial vehicle, understand regulatory frameworks and type certification requirements Reliability and Maintainability Analysis – introduce Reliability analysis -- 1 of 3 -- 2 techniques: Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Weibull Analysis and Reliability Block Diagram approach. Students will be able to determine the life behaviour of a low- altitude aerial vehicle component , calculate the failure rate of a low-altitude aerial vehicle system and provide a cost effective predictive maintenance solutions. Safety

目标

This subject aims at to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the complex lower airspace ecosystem. Students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory framework, stakeholder interests, reliablity analysis and safety considerations governing lower airspace operations. The programme will explore into legal and regulatory frameworks, stakeholder interests, reliablity analysis ,safety assessment methodologies for UAVs and other low-altitude aircraft, incident and accident investigation principles, and aerial vehicle certification requirements and airworthiness considerations. Upon completion, students will be prepared to contribute meaningfully to the development and safe integration of low- altitude aviation technologies.
