The effects of costs on drone uptake in multi-modal logistics systems within a healthcare setting Open
Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs; commonly known as drones) have been gaining interest as a potential transport mode for logistics (i.e., payload delivery), bringing suggested benefits such as reduced transit times and improved access in har…

Quantifying Specific Operation Airborne Collision Risk through Monte Carlo Simulation Open
Integration of Uncrewed Aircraft into unsegregated airspace requires robust and objective risk assessment in order to prevent exposure of existing airspace users to additional risk. A probabilistic Mid-Air Collision risk model is developed…

Are Drones Safer Than Vans?: A Comparison of Routing Risk in Logistics Open
Drones are being considered as an alternative transport mode to ground based van networks. Whilst the speed and application of such networks has been extensively studied, the safety aspects of such modes have not been directly compared. Us…

An Empirical Study of Overlapping Rotor Interference for a Small Unmanned Aircraft Propulsion System Open
The majority of research into full-sized helicopter overlapping propulsion systems involves co-axial setups (fully overlapped). Partially overlapping rotor setups (tandem, multirotor) have received less attention, and empirical data produc…
