International Journal of Sustainable Aviation (IJSA)

Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

Online First articles are published online here, before they appear in a journal issue. Online First articles are fully citeable, complete with a DOI. They can be cited, read, and downloaded. Online First articles are published as Open Access (OA) articles to make the latest research available as early as possible.

Open AccessArticles marked with this Open Access icon are Online First articles. They are freely available and openly accessible to all without any restriction except the ones stated in their respective CC licenses.

  • A literature review on artificial intelligence in aviation sector   Order a copy of this article
    by Sudati Kumari, Totakura Bangar Raju, Shweta Agarwal 
    Abstract: This study presents a comprehensive systematic literature review on the journey of artificial intelligence (AI) in the aviation industry. This emphasises how AI has been beneficial to the growth of the industry. Thirty-three relevant papers from the scope database were reviewed, and the reviewing method was shown using the PRISMA model. This study makes several interesting observations. Although automation has always been part of the aviation industry, the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) is in its nascent stage. The results indicate that AI has been beneficial in areas such as baggage handling, query solving, and guidance through airports; however, certain areas, such as activities related to ticket reservation systems, have not been explored. It provides important implications for industry and suggests future scope of research in this area.
    Keywords: artificial intelligence; AI; aviation sector; air industry; benefits to customers; advantages to industry; consumer related task; industrial task; automation; query issues; baggage handling; security; airport.

  • Experimental and computational study on a morphed trailing edge airfoil for enhanced lift and stall characteristics   Order a copy of this article
    by Krish V. Raibole, Kundlik V. Mali 
    Abstract: The current study presents a morphed trailing edge methodology applied to a Clark-Y airfoil in order to improve the effective stall angle of the specific airfoil under definite conditions. A morph of 2 was provided to the trailing edge of the Clark-Y airfoil in consideration. The performance of the morphed wing was analysed by varying two parameters, the angle of attack (AOA) and the freestream flow velocity. The AOA was varied from 0 to 50, while the flow stream velocity was 10 m/s and 12 m/s. The morphed airfoil showed a maximum increase in the lift-to-drag ratio at 15 and 10 m/s flow velocity. Although at the cost of lift force and a minor increase in drag, the stall angle of the airfoil is improved from 22 to 25. Numerical simulations showed a maximum deviation of 12.7% with the experimental data, affirming the reliability of the simulations and the methodology.
    Keywords: morphed; trailing edge; airfoil; stall; angle of attack; AOA; drag; lift.
