This meeting brought together the teams from the two universities of Madrid (University Rey Juan Carlos and University Carlos III of Madrid) and Seville (University of Seville) to share the research progress of this national project, whose goalContinue reading “Storm-ATS 2nd Progress Meeting”
CNN-based architectures can be used to increase the prediction lead time of thunderstorms
Our latest research shows that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)-based architectures can be used to increase the prediction lead time of thunderstorms in the aviation field. These results are published in the journal paper titled “Thunderstorm prediction during pre-tactical air-traffic-flow management using convolutional neural networks”. A study written by Aniel Jardinesa, Hamidreza Eivazib, Elias Zeab, Javier García-Herasa,Continue reading “CNN-based architectures can be used to increase the prediction lead time of thunderstorms”
Attending the 76th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Fluid Dynamics
On November 19-21 we travelled to Washington DC to attend the 76th Annual Meeting of the APS DFD (American Physical Society’s Division of Fluid Dynamics). The Aircraft Operations Lab from Universidad Carlos III de Madrid was represented by Álvaro Moreno Soto, who presented an approach to weather prediction, leveraging Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs). PERSEVERE ProjectContinue reading “Attending the 76th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Fluid Dynamics”
Sustainable Skies Conference: Contrails in Focus
The Aircraft Operations Lab at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, spearheading the E-CONTRAIL project, actively participated in the Sustainable Skies Conference: Contrails in Focus hosted by CANSO and EUROCONTROL on November 7-8, 2023, in Brussels. The main objective of the event was to bring together scientists, researchers, the aviation industry, policy makers and other stakeholdersContinue reading “Sustainable Skies Conference: Contrails in Focus”
