Worked as a human factors and validation analyst for DHMI's FRATURK (Turkish Free Route Airspace) project conducting 1 week of prototyping and 12 weeks of simulations measuring 23 sectors with close to 400 controllers. Validation tasks include delivering reports (VALS, VALP, VALR), leading stakeholder workshops, running real time simulations, analysing and visualising simulation data.Also alongside this, working on SESAR PJ02 Enhanced Airport Procedures for Eurocontrol as Validation… Show more Worked as a human factors and validation analyst for DHMI's FRATURK (Turkish Free Route Airspace) project conducting 1 week of prototyping and 12 weeks of simulations measuring 23 sectors with close to 400 controllers. Validation tasks include delivering reports (VALS, VALP, VALR), leading stakeholder workshops, running real time simulations, analysing and visualising simulation data.Also alongside this, working on SESAR PJ02 Enhanced Airport Procedures for Eurocontrol as Validation analyst for two real time simulation exercises. Includes coordinating with different stakeholders and experts, preparing scenarios and traffic samples for RTS, running real time simulations, conducting surveys and debriefing sessions, analysis the simulation data and qualitative data and reporting the results using the SESAR templates and SE-DMF.In addition, I am working to improve the methods used to analyse data collected from simulations. I am researching the application of mixed models analysis for repeated measures data to measure whether different simulation conditions have a statistically significant effect on particular variables, focusing on perceived workload and complexityPreviously worked as a validation analyst for SESAR2020 Wave 1 PJ.07-02 Validation Expert for EUROCONTROL. Provided validation support for the planning of a Fast Time Simulation exercise by applying the E-OCVM. Wrote a published academic paper for the 9th SESAR Innovation Days, "Reducing Impact of Delays using Airspace User-Driven Flight Prioritisation". Analysed the results from the simulation that are presented in the paper. Show less
