The flight performance optimization algorithms, developed with energy state approximation approach, are first introduced, the functionally integrated flight path/speed control system, so called total energy control system (TECS), is then discussed, and the guidance technique and algorithms, which relate the performance optimization results directly with the TECS, are analyzed and developed. Digital simulation results for a specific transport aircraft model demonstrate the satisfactory performances of the resulted flight performance management system.展开更多

The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative data from surveys with qualitative insights from expert interviews and case studies. The survey, involving 313 respondents from various FM sectors, highlights the widespread adoption of technologies like CMMS, BIM, IoT, AI, smart applications, and interactive dashboards. Key findings indicate that these technologies significantly enhance operational efficiency, cost savings, maintenance optimization, and decision-making. However, challenges such as high implementation costs, resistance to change, cybersecurity concerns, and integration issues persist. The study’s case studies, drawn from diverse industries including universities, underscore the practical benefits and hurdles faced during digital transformation. Recommendations include investing in comprehensive training programs, securing financial support, enhancing cybersecurity measures, developing clear strategic plans, fostering a culture of innovation, leveraging data analytics, encouraging collaboration, and advocating for supportive government policies. These recommendations aim to guide stakeholders in effectively navigating the digital landscape, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 objectives to achieve operational excellence and sustainable growth in FM projects.展开更多
