Abstract

U skladu sa razvojem zrakoplova na električni pogon s mogućnošću vertikalnog uzlijetanja
i slijetanja (eVTOL), dolazi do potrebe i za razvojem infrastrukture na kojima će se provoditi
operacije slijetanja i uzlijetanje te prihvat i otprema takvih zrakoplova. Vertiportovi, aerodromi
za prihvat eVTOL zrakoplova, nalaziti će se u urbanim i ruralnim sredinama te u sklopu već
postojećih aerodroma. Trendovi i smjernice razvoja vertiportova kao i primjena eVTOL
zrakoplova regulirani su regulatorskim tijelima. U korak s novim vidom transporta ljudi i dobara
u urbanim i ruralnim sredinama razvija se i adekvatan sustav kontrole leta. S obzirom na zahtjeve
i mogućnosti razvoja sustava vezanih uz eVTOL-ove, cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je razmotriti
utjecaj eVTOL zrakoplova na razvoj infrastrukture i navigacijskih procedura te prikazati studiju
slučaja razvoja mreže vertiportova u aglomeraciji Munich. Pregledom literature razvidno je da je
neophodna suradnja znanstvenika i industrijskog sektora za daljnji razvoj i implementaciju eVTOL
zrakoplova u urbanom transportu. Analiza studije slučaja pokazala je razmjernu opravdanost za
uvođenje novog modela prijevoza zbog velike gustoće naseljenosti te velikog broja turista.
Razvidno je da daljnji razvoj i primjenu letjelica uvjetuju proizvođači letjelica i lokacija vertiporta,
razina buke, uvođenje zaštitnih pregleda putnika i prtljage. Kako bi ova nova mogućnost
mobilnosti bila prihvaćena, podržana i primjenjiva, potrebno je uzeti u obzir dodatne faktori
poput osiguranja i odgovornosti u slučaju izvanrednih događaja, ekološka održivost, cjenovna
pristupačnost te kvaliteta urbanizacije.

Abstract (english)

With the emergence of electric-powered aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing
(eVTOL), there is a growing need for airports specifically designed to handle these aircraft.
Vertiports, which are airports tailored for eVTOL aircraft, are set to be established in urban and
rural settings, as well as integrated into existing airport infrastructures. The development of
vertiports and the deployment of eVTOL aircraft are guided by standards and regulations set by
relevant authorities. Concurrent with this innovative approach to transporting people and goods
across both urban and rural landscapes, a suitable air traffic control system is under
development.
Given the specific requirements and potential for eVTOL-related systems, this paper aims to
explore the impact of eVTOL aircraft on infrastructure and navigational procedures, showcasing
a case study on the development of a vertiport network in the Munich area. The literature review
highlights the critical importance of collaboration between academia and the industry for the
advancement and integration of eVTOL aircraft into urban transportation. The case study analysis
provides a compelling rationale for adopting this new mode of transport, driven by high
population density and significant tourist numbers. The future growth and adoption of these
aircraft will depend on factors such as manufacturer requirements and specifications, vertiport
locations, noise pollution, and the implementation of security measures for passengers and their
belongings. For this innovative mobility solution to gain acceptance, support, and practical
application, it is crucial to address additional considerations like insurance and liability in
emergency situations, environmental sustainability, affordability, and the impact on urban
quality of life.
