Aircraft Noise cover

Aircraft noise has adverse impacts on passengers, airport staff and people living near airports, it thus limits the capacity of regional and international airports throughout the world. Reducing perceived noise of aircraft involves reduction of noise at source, along the propagation path and at the receiver.

Effective noise control demands highly skilled and knowledgeable engineers. This book is for them. It shows you how accurate and reliable information about aircraft noise levels can be gained by calculations using appropriate generation and propagation models, or by measurements with effective monitoring systems. It also explains how to allow for atmospheric conditions, natural and artificial topography as well as detailing necessary measurement techniques.

"This book reflects decades of experience and investigations of the authors in the various fields of aviation acoustics and its effects on the surrounding environment... the book is absolutely recommended for its completeness and its unique approach in describing both the aircrafts as noise sources and the impact of airports on the environment while also giving suggestions on how to mitigate these problems and how to monitor and keep them under control."
—International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 19, No. 3, 2014

This book is striking as an in-depth compilation of the vast knowledge gained by the two lead authors.
