Reducing Weather Related Accidents

The student will investigate, compare, contrast, analyze and form conclusions to current aviation, aerospace, and industry-related topics in safety systems, including systems safety, industrial safety, accident investigation and analysis, transportation security, airport safety and certification, safety program management, and aviation psychology.

Aviation Security is a huge concern in the United States. With increasing threats of terrorist plots, especially after the September 11th terrorist attacks, the Department of Homeland security has made huge leaps to keep America’s travelers, airports, and airways safe. With growing concerns of terrorism and other issues, the Department of Homeland Security put in place an organization known as TSA (Transportation Security Administration) and other federal regulations under the Aviation and Transportations Security Act of 2001. It has been 10 years since the establishment of TSA and the new rules of air travel, even though recently they have fallen into a realm of criticism with their new body scan techniques. After the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks aviation security has been one of the biggest issues in the world. There are several ways in which airports and cargo shipments are protected and there are different types of technologies that are currently being used to assist in these efforts to keep airports and cargo shipments safe guarded.

Aircraft have always played an important role when taking us to places otherwise inaccessible. Whether it be an airliner with passengers or military carrier, air travel results in faster, more efficient completion of task. The way we navigate the skies can make or break the success of business or military operations. However, there are some dangers that exist. Being thousands of feet up in the sky leaves us prone to catastrophic failure of a component or detection and engagement from defensive air and ground forces. Safety is a must and as a result, advanced technologies, shaped and inspired by renowned conflicts and events, such as “radar jamming systems”, were developed in order to insure the safety of those on the ground and in the sky.

As we all know, safety is fundamental to the aviation industry. There are many factors will cause dangerous to flights, such as human factors, problem of aircraft structures and so on. Flight safety has many challenges. Due to the climate variability and suddenness, meteorology has become a severe problem in aviation. Many air crashes are in the result of bad weather. In generally speaking, there are several weather phenomenon have much influence on flights, like turbulence, including clear air turbulence, thunderstorms, icing, volcanic ash. People have spent a lot of energy in predicting and avoiding these weather problems. According to the NASA Langley Research Center, in the 1970s and 1980s, multiple

Summer is the time of year when kids get their much deserved summer vacations and adults get some time off as well. It's a time to get away and do some travel. When you're on the road, be sure to watch for these five summer driving hazards:

Additionally, this topic is of particular interest primarily for the reason that it truly affects our lives on a daily basis in one way or another. For the average person, weather forecasting can be used as a resource for planning activities or even how we dress for the day. For others that may work in an industry dependent upon specific weather conditions, such as farmers or truck drivers, weather forecasting is extra critical to the planning process. The inaccuracy of the forecast

behind a wheel. According to Driving Test .org, it states , you should always check your mirrors on your car in case of an cop or paramedics come flying down the street and you need to pull over as soon as you can. Before you pull out of your driveway adjust your seat san mirror . When you are driving get rid of all distortions while driving like texting cause you can crash and die.

Natural Hazards and the Interaction of Physical and Human Processes The earth has been producing hazards for millennia these include earthquakes and volcanoes caused by the movement of tectonic plates, and also wind and water elated disasters such as tornadoes and tsunamis, these can be varied by a countries location such as suffering drought due to be land locked or an island, also the relief on the land can contribute greatly to the hazards it faces.. All of these cause great destruction and can involves lots of energy, these events do not become disasters unless there are human factors involved, when people live on a fault line they are risking suffering from an earthquake, this combination of

Aviation has come a long way since the days when safe operation between aircraft was based purely on the 'SEE AND BE SEEN' principle. With the aircraft closing speeds in excess of 1000 mph, and increasing density of air traffic, the impracticability of reliance upon such a system is obvious.

Since the development of planes, safety and security have been a very important key to reduce the lost of human life, United States and countless nations throughout the world have implemented many procedures and regulations to keep the traveling public safe. After 9/11 safety and security was examined with a microscope, the United States government formed the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to ensure that the nation’s airports and aircrafts would not be in harm’s way. The Transportation Security Administration is responsible for screening and scanning passengers before they board an aircraft, therefore countless measures begin long before passengers arrive at the airport. Consequently, TSA conduct many different types of security

The Air Transportation System has been reformed by the introduction of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). This system is supposed to be implemented in the country by 2025. The system revises air routes and updates it to satellite system management; the promotion of usage of GPS technology for navigation, route length shortening, time reduction, and fuel saving, etc.

Weather is possibly the biggest ‘X’ factors affecting a pilot in flight. According to a 2014 Airplane Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) Report (NTSB DEN06LA036), “approximately 4% of general aviation accidents are weather related, yet these accidents account for more than 25% of all fatalities.” Unintended flight in to IMC is probably one of the most confusing, perilous, and challenging situations a pilot can go through.

Even if you keep up the maintenance on your vehicle, sometimes, accidents still happen. If you end up broken down, on the side of the road in need of a towing assistance during the winter months, it is vital that you keep safe while you are waiting for help to arrive. Here are a few winter safety tips to keep in mind when you are waiting for towing assistance during the winter months, as well as a few suggestions of items to keep in your vehicle at all times that will help keep you safe.

Abstract: Throughout history, human beings have been astonished by the concept of flight. In the modern world, planes, helicopters and other aircrafts have been engineered to fulfil this perception, allowing people to travel around the world in easy. However, just like cars and trains, planes are also prone to accidents influenced by bad weather conditions. The information below describes how a thunderstorm and wind shear affected Delta fight 191 in 1985. Which will provide the physics behind the accident and the weather system and create recommendations to help limit these types of air accidents. Introduction/ background: The concept of flight follows basic physics principles includes Bernoulli's principle, forces in flight and how the motion

Methods Data will be obtained via radar, weather balloons, and from cases of engine power-loss for analysis of atmospheric conditions.
