Safety Line

Following the “iMatch Contrôle Optimisation” event held at Inria Saclay on October 23rd (2012), a collaboration was initiated between COMMANDS and the startup Safety Line (http ://www.safety-line.fr), with a first contract on optimizing the ascent phase for commercial planes. A crucial aspect of this work is the identification of accurate and reliable models for the aerodynamic and thrust forces acting on the plane. For this study our partners at Safety Line provide us access to data recorded during several thousands of actual commercial flights, and COMMANDS recruited Stephan Maindrault as engineer to work on this project.
