Information Technologies in the Design of Aerospace Engineering (Studies in Systems, Decision and Control, 507)

This book proposes a solution to the problem of incorrect use of automation tools to perform complex design work.

Currently, a large number of start-up projects are non-professional design bureaus that show a huge amount of their achievements. In reality, most of these achievements burst like soap bubbles. This is due to the low-quality and inefficient use of information technology in this industry.

The book highlights advanced information technologies in the fields of design, machine learning, and computer vision.

Mykola Nechyporuk

Mykola Nechyporuk was born on November 10, 1952, in a village Malevo Rivne region.

In 1973, he entered the Kharkov Aviation Institute at the Radio Engineering Faculty in the design and manufacture of radio equipment. After graduation from 1979, he worked as an engineer at the Kharkov Aviation Institute. In the same year, he became the director of the KhAI campus.

Since 1998 M. Nechyporuk becomes vice-rector for administrative and financial activities of the KhAI. From 1998 to 2010, he worked as a deputy of the Kiev district council of Kharkiv, from 2010 to 2015, the deputy of the Kharkiv City Council, from 2004 to 2018, and the vice-rector for Scientific and Pedagogical Work of the National Aerospace University, Kharkiv Aviation Institute.

He has more than a hundred scientific papers, including monographs, textbooks, publications in foreign journals, and publications in the world scientometric databases.

Vladimir Pavlikov

Vladimir Pavlikov is the vice rector for science, the dean of Radio Electronics, Computer Systems and Info-Communications Faculty (April 2017–September 2018), and the head of the department of aircraft radio-electronic systems design (April 2015–March 2017). His academic degree includes Doctor of Technical Sciences (since January 2014). Scientific rank is the senior researcher (since April 2015).

In 2014, he was awarded the Prize of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine for young scientists for a series of scientific works which develop the theory of synthesis of wideband radiometric systems. In 2015, he won the First Prize (European Microwave Association).

In 2016-2018, he was the head of the scientific work “New principles of processing signals of own radio-thermal radiation of objects of different physical nature and technologies for their implementation.”(In 2019–2021, he was the head of scientific work “The development of the theory of ultra-wideband active aperture synthesis systems for high-precision remote sensing from high-speed aerospace platforms.”
