OverviewAI-generated summary

Neelakshi Majumdar's research focuses on aviation safety, with a particular emphasis on accident analysis and human factors. Her work investigates the causes and contributing factors of accidents in general aviation, commercial aviation, and unmanned aircraft systems. Majumdar has published studies analyzing inflight loss of control, stall, and spin accidents in fixed-wing aircraft, utilizing state-based approaches and qualitative data from pilot interviews and surveys. She also examines maintenance-related accidents in commercial aviation and safety reporting within unmanned aircraft systems. Additionally, her research extends to the considerations and challenges of personal aerial vehicles for urban air mobility. Majumdar collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Ryker Davis and Swapnil Saha, and her work is reflected in a publication record of 23 articles with 47 citations and an h-index of 4.
