A DCAMM seminar will be presented by
\nDr. Antonio Filippone
\nThe University of Manchester
\nManchester, United Kingdom
Abstract:
\n
\nSound propagation in the atmosphere takes place over long distances (several km), over complex terrain with variable acoustic impedance and variable conditions. This includes stratified atmospheres with variable temperature, density, relative humidity, wind speeds and wind directions. Thus, there is a large set of parameters, most of which cannot be determined by measurement. Although the matter discussed is specifically concerned with aircraft community noise, the theoretical methods presented apply equally to other long-distance propagation problems such as wind turbines and road traffic. The determination of instantaneous and integral noise metrics, and the iso-levels of the acoustic signatures on a wide area are described. Two independent models have been extended and improved numerically: a wave-equation model and a ray-tracing model. These models operate over a fixed-impedance ground in a stratified atmosphere affected by horizontal winds. A comparison between the two models is shown for negative and positive sound speed gradient, in the frequency and in the space domain. The case of a full aircraft noise model will be shown. The case of a flight trajectory is considered for two types of aircraft: turbofan-powered and propeller-powered. Accuracy issues are examined in detail.
\n
\nDanish pastry, coffee and tea will be served 15 minutes before the seminar starts.
All interested persons are invited.
