RESUMEN
Cosmic rays are the primary source of the daily exposure of aircrew and passengers to ionising radiation. This study aims to estimate the effective doses of ionising radiation for aircraft crews in Bosnia and Herzegovina by taking into consideration factors such as flight duration and altitude, as well as the geographical position of airports. The CARI-7 algorithm and neural network method were used in the analysis of data obtained from the Sarajevo International Airport. The results show that the estimated annual effective doses in 2021 range from 0.06 to 10 mSv for flights to and from Belgrade and Dubai, respectively. Both linear regression and neural network models were developed to predict the effective dose based on flight duration, average altitude, latitude and maximum altitude. The findings reveal that flight duration is the most statistically significant factor, followed by average altitude, latitude and maximum altitude.
