An Aircraft Accident Investigation: Revisited

Content Provider Springer Nature Link
Author Bhaumik, S. K.
Copyright Year 2008
Abstract Aircraft accidents are usually complex, and hence their investigation requires expertise from several fields. The challenge for an investigating team is to analyze the bits and pieces of information gathered in the course of the investigation through background information, interrogation, and material evidence and stitch them into a descriptive picture to arrive at the possible cause(s) of the accident. During this process, the investigating team is extremely dependent on laboratories where failed components/structures are subjected to detailed study. The laboratory findings are the decisive factors in ensuring a successful investigation. Any mistakes committed at this stage can, apart from wasteful work, lead to confusion and wrong direction of investigation. This paper presents an investigation that in the author’s opinion should have been conclusive, but remained inconclusive. The shortcomings in the investigation are discussed.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
