Sonic Boom Modeling Overview What are we trying to do? Understand the impact of sonic booms from new low-boom aircraft designs on community residents What is our approach? - Atmospheric Propagation: Develop more accurate sonic boom propagation models - Structural Response & Modeling: Examine sonic boom transmission into small and large structures - Human Response & Modeling: Develop psychoacoustic model of human response to low booms (both outdoors and indoors) for single and multiple events - Work cooperatively with regulators (FAA, ICAO) and other researchers (industry, academia, JAXA, others) What are the payoffs if we are successful? - Replace current prohibition of civil supersonic overland flight with a noise-based standard for aircraft certification
