Abstract: The DYNAMIC AIRCRAFT THREAT CONTROLLER MANAGER APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“DATCM”) transforms flight profile information, terrain, weather/atmospheric data and flight parameter data via DATCM components into comprehensive hazard avoidance optimized flight plans. Comprehensive hazard avoidance includes synergistic comprehensive turbulence and airfoil-specific icing data. In one implementation, the DATCM comprises a processor and a memory disposed in communication with the processor and storing processor-issuable instructions to receive anticipated flight plan parameter data, obtain weather data based on the flight plan parameter data, obtain atmospheric data based on the flight plan parameter data, and determine a plurality of four-dimensional grid points based on the flight plan parameter data. The DATCM may then determine comprehensive hazards mappings.

Abstract: The DYNAMIC STORM ENVIRONMENT ENGINE (DSEE) transforms flight profiles, atmospheric data, and convective and non-convective turbulence predictions and observations into dynamic turbulence alerts, nowcasts, and optimized flight paths. The DSEE determines four-dimensional grid points for a temporal geographic area and determines atmospheric potential instability and potential turbulence intensity at each grid point. The DSEE masks potential turbulence intensity at least one grid point and determines and outputs at least one of the TKE and the total EDR for each grid point. In some implementations, the DSEE receives a flight profile for an aircraft, including an initial route.

Abstract: A SAW mode sensor for sensing parameters such as temperature, pressure, and strain. The sensor is made of a piezoelectric crystal cut at selected angles, with an attached electrode layer with a signal receiver and signal transmitter. The signal receiver initiates a wave in the substrate which propagates in the substrate and the speed of the wave and amplitude of the wave is interpreted as the parameter being sensed.
