    Assessing advanced propulsion systems using the impact monitor framework
    (MDPI, 2025-03-28) Gupta, Utkarsh; Riaz, Atif; Brenner, Felix; Lefebvre, Thierry; Ratei, Patrick; Alder, Marko; Prakasha, Prajwal Shiva; Weber, Lukas; Pons-Prats, Jordi; Markatos, Dionysios
    Presented in this paper is the Impact Monitor framework and interactive Dashboard Application (DA) validated through a use case, focusing on investigating the viability and competitiveness of future propulsion architectures for next-generation aircraft concepts. This paper presents a novel collaborative framework for integrated aircraft-level assessments, focusing on secure, remote workflows that protect intellectual property (IP) while enabling comprehensive and automated analyses. The research addresses a key gap in the aerospace domain: the seamless matching and sizing of aircraft engines within an automated workflow that integrates multiple tools and facilitates real-time data exchanges. Specifically, thrust requirements are iteratively shared between aircraft and engine modeling environments for synchronized sizing. Subsequently, the fully defined aircraft data are transferred to other tools for trajectory analysis and emissions and other assessments. The Impact Monitor framework and Dashboard Application demonstrate improved efficiency and data security, promoting effective collaboration across institutions and industry partners.

    Impact monitor framework: development and implementation of a collaborative framework for aviation impact assessment
    (MDPI, 2025-03-18) Alder, Marko; Ratei, Patrick; Riaz, Atif; Gupta, Utkarsh; Lefebvre, Thierry; Prakasha, Prajwal Shiva
    The development and implementation of a collaborative framework for aviation impact assessment studies is presented. The focus is on which technologies can be used to enable the collaborative aspect, including the use of a common data model, the secure transfer of data between domain experts in different locations, and the automated execution of impact assessment workflows. It is demonstrated how the selected technologies can be extended to meet the requirements of air transport systems assessment and how they can be integrated into a common framework. The results of the developments are discussed in terms of their technical capabilities and the lessons learned from their practical use. The proposed framework shows that collaborative impact assessment studies can be conducted efficiently and securely. This forms the basis for three application studies in the same research project.
