The IX International Scientific and Practical Conference Chaplygin Readings, organised by the Siberian Research Institute of Aviation (SibNIA), took place in Novosibirsk at the beginning of April. The programme of the event included reports on numerical and experimental methods of aerodynamic research, aircraft strength at different flight speeds, and issues related to the use of composite materials.

During the plenary session of the conference, the results of the work of the world-class scientific centre (NCMU) Supersonic, which is engaged in the development of new technologies for supersonic aviation, were considered. Alexander Medvedsky, First Deputy Director General of the Federal Autonomous Establishment TsAGI, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, spoke about the results of the NCMU Supersonic, including the laboratory Artificial Intelligence and Flight Safety.

Through the study of aerodynamics, flight safety, strength and aeroacoustics, the NCMU is focused on improving the flight performance, environmental and acoustic characteristics of the new generation of supersonic passenger aircraft. Alexander Medvedsky stressed the importance of creating intelligent control systems for supersonic civil aircraft using artificial intelligence, vision and augmented reality technologies.

“To date, scientists have already created highly reliable intelligent systems for manual and automatic flight control of supersonic civil aircraft, the formation of a unified information and control field of the aircraft cabin based on the use of artificial intelligence, vision and augmented reality technologies. We are also making progress in the design of a supersonic passenger aerobatic display. All these achievements are the result of joint work of specialists at the forefront of science, which will allow aviation to rise to a fundamentally new level,” Alexander Medvedsky said.

The conference also highlighted TsAGI’s research in aerodynamics, flight dynamics and aerophysical experiments. The specialists presented their work on studying the design of new-generation aircraft aimed at improving the safety and efficiency of flights in small aviation.
