The rise of UAM is being driven by the convergence of two technologies: autonomy and electric aircraft propulsion. Although promising, these technologies place limits on the discovery of viable markets, the timeline of introduction, and the design of operational paradigms. In particular, electric propulsion\u0026mdash;when achieved with battery energy storage\u0026mdash;is highly constraining in terms of aircraft payload, range, and speed performance and in terms of operational tempo and ground infrastructure. This talk will discuss recent work in modeling aircraft performance and operations for UAM and will highlight the challenges and opportunities in particular urban markets.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESESSION SPEAKER\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.scl.gatech.edu\/users\/brian-german\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBrian German\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E,\u0026nbsp;Daniel Guggenheim School of Aerospace Engineering\u200b\u200b\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Ch3\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.scl.gatech.edu\/sclirc\/seminars\/register\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ERegister Online for upcoming SCL IRC seminars\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003EAttendance to the sessions is complimentary for SCL corporate partners, SCL Industry Advisory Board members, SCL affiliated faculty and students, and students enrolled in the Masters in Supply Chain Engineering program.\u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETo take advantage of the included lunch, you must register by deadline noted on the registration page.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIf you have any questions, please email event@scl.gatech.edu.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe Supply Chain and Logistics Institute hosts a series of monthly seminars open to interested SCL faculty, students and corporate partners as well as the general public.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Join the Supply Chain and Logistics Institute for our monthly seminar to learn about affiliated faculty research."}],"uid":"27233","created_gmt":"2019-10-01 16:15:16","changed_gmt":"2019-11-20 19:13:56","author":"Andy Haleblian","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2020-01-15T12:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2020-01-15T13:30:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2020-01-15T13:30:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2020-01-15 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2020-01-15 18:30:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2020-01-15 18:30:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"626962":{"id":"626962","type":"image","title":"SCL IRC Seminar: The Local Character of Urban Air Mobility: Opportunities and Challenges\u200b","body":null,"created":"1569946386","gmt_created":"2019-10-01 16:13:06","changed":"1569946386","gmt_changed":"2019-10-01 16:13:06","alt":"","file":{"fid":"238711","name":"GTSCL-SCLIRC_German.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/GTSCL-SCLIRC_German.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/GTSCL-SCLIRC_German.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":172047,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/GTSCL-SCLIRC_German.jpg?itok=iActSdc8"}}},"media_ids":["626962"],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.scl.gatech.edu\/sclirc\/seminars\/register","title":"Register Online for upcoming SCLIRC seminars"}],"groups":[{"id":"1242","name":"School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISYE)"},{"id":"1243","name":"The Supply Chain and Logistics Institute (SCL)"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"167074","name":"Supply Chain"},{"id":"233","name":"Logistics"},{"id":"122741","name":"physical internet"},{"id":"180975","name":"drones; UAV; unmanned aerial vehicles"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"},{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EThe cost to attend is $25 per session which includes a boxed lunch*.
