GOVERNANCE NETWORK ON AVIATION SAFETY: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW

2023-12-19T03:00:56+00:00

The governance network serves as a crucial conceptual framework to be applied within the context of air transportation policy, particularly concerning aviation safety. This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review of prior research focusing on governance networks in the aviation safety sector and to elaborate on the existing knowledge landscape, identify prevailing research gaps, and formulate pertinent implications for future investigations. The review relies on a systematic literature review comprising 67 publications from the Scopus database. The review process adheres to the PRISMA method, wherein data from each article are categorized and documented in worksheet format. This approach facilitates systematic data grouping and subsequent descriptive and thematic analysis. The result from the review reveals a significant body of prior research about governance networks within the aviation context, predominantly in Europe and the United States. Research on networks and governance in the aviation sector has been underway since 2004. However, research explicitly applying the concept of governance network within the aviation context remains somewhat limited. Over 18 years, only 19 relevant articles have been identified. Furthermore, applying network governance concepts in aviation safety contexts is an underexplored area, with only ten articles focusing on this aspect. These findings underscore substantial opportunities for further research in the future.

AIRPORT PLAN TOPOGRAPHIC EXAMINATION: ACCURACY ANALYSIS BY DEMNAS AND ASTER GDEM METHOD IN TERRESTRIAL SURVEYS

2023-12-22T12:31:49+00:00

An airport feasibility study is an important thing that must be completed to propose a new airport as a condition for issuing an airport location determination. The most critical indicator is the technical construction, which examines the topographic conditions of the new airport location. The topographic conditions using a terrestrial survey are highly accurate because they are carried out directly on the analyzed object. However, terrestrial surveys require time, energy, and money. This study aims to examine the topographic conditions using DEMNAS and ASTER GDEM, which can provide the same data as terrestrial surveys with a spatial resolution of 8 meters and 30 meters for free. The results of the comparative analysis show that the average elevation difference between DEMNAS and ASTER GDEM against terrestrial survey in the new airport location plan in Mahakam Ulu Regency is 2.04 meters and 8.89 meters, respectively. The validity and accuracy test of DEMNAS against terrestrial survey resulted in R² 0.963, RMSE 2.417 meters, NSE 0.941, and LE90 3.897 meters. ASTER GDEM against terrestrial survey resulted in R² 0.674, RMSE 6.244 meters, NSE -0.666 and LE90 10.3 meters. The analysis results show that DEMNAS data is better than ASTER GDEM. The conclusion is that DEMNAS data has a good level of accuracy that can be used to determine and analyze the topographic conditions of the new airport land plan so that it can be an alternative for the initiator in preparing the airport feasibility study.

LAYOUT ANALYSIS OF EQUIPMENT STORAGE AREA TO CREATE SAFE FLOW IN AIRPORT

2023-12-19T07:52:03+00:00

The flow access road in the airport make-up area still has obstacles from many Grounds Support Equipment (GSE) scattered during operational and non-operational hours that can be a hazard endangering ground handling officers and passengers. This study aims to overview the problems in the make-up area of Jenderal Ahmad Yani Semarang International Airport and provide a solution with a new layout of GSE to make a safe flow in the make-up area. This research used descriptive qualitative methods, data collection by observation, interview, and documentation with analytics design by Miles and Huberman. The solution to the problem in this study is designing a new eastern equipment parking area layout by optimizing the empty land of former containers and providing land for Baggage Carts (BCT) to make it tidier. The conclusion of this study is a layout design of the equipment storage area that can optimize the empty land of the former container into additional land to make equipment area storage more efficient and safe. The researcher also provides land for baggage carts. Hence, their placement is neater to avoid becoming an obstacle and suggests that third parties consider this research, which can also be applied at Jenderal Ahmad Yani Semarang International Airport.

AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE: THE AVAILABILITY OF ACCESS ROAD AT THE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

2023-12-22T13:02:38+00:00

An access road is a road traveled by ARFF vehicles to connect the fire station with the runway or aircraft movement area. This research aims to identify the situation and opportunity of the access road built in Juwata Tarakan Airport to provide response time by rearranging aircraft movement management on the Main Apron and Taxiway. The research method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with gap analysis techniques and uses data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The result of this study can be used as a reference and guide in designing access roads under applicable regulations, and it is expected to complement and expand references in the development of science in the field of air transportation management. In addition, the position of the Fire Station is close to one of the Runways and is not in a strategic location (0°). So that we can achieve faster response time to the nearest Runway, the conclusion is that the Juwata Airport ARFF Unit cannot build an access road to national regulations because the Fire Station is directly opposite the old Apron and Taxiway. It is expected that Juwata Airport can make rearrangements related to aircraft movement management on the Main Apron and Taxiway.

THE TCR 5000 CONSTANT CURRENT REGULATOR'S SAFETY DESIGN UTILIZING PROGRAMMABLE LOGISTIC CONTROL

2023-12-20T03:37:44+00:00

Air transportation must have security procedures from landing to taking off the plane in the application of the plane guided by the Airfield Lighting System (ALS). CCR type 5000 is one of them to provide visible information on the aircraft. At Husein Sastranegara Airport, damage often occurs on the module due to a poor grounding system and non-standard insulation resistance. This research aims to design CCR safety with TCR 5000 type, which can be applied to Husein Sastranegara International Airport concerning regulatory standards and will be outlined in this research. This research has the following objectives: to design a safety device for the CCR with TCR 5000 type, to prevent damage to the CCR module, and to be used as a reference for airport management. This study's research and development (R&D) methodology begins with observation. According to the study's findings, the PLC-based CCR 5000-type CCR safety design can reduce damage to the CCR module. The PLC will turn off the CCR's power supply if it detects an overcurrent. The buzzer will sound to facilitate technicians' ability to determine whether the CCR type TCR 5000 is experiencing overcurrent.
