Aeromedical Safety Brochures are prepared for general aviation pilots, commercial pilots and physicians. The brochures acquaint the aviation community with the physiological challenges of the aviation environment and relevant safety concerns.
This report evaluates the impact of changing aircraft speed during approach and departure on community noise for transport category jet aircraft. This analysis is part of a broader study investigating the opportunities to modify approach and departure procedures to reduce community noise impact. This report also addresses a requirement in Section 1

This report discusses the processes and results of an acoustic measurement program conducted at Joint Base Cape Cod in Bourne, Massachusetts from September 26th to October 1st, 2021. The test was conducted in support of the FAA’s research into the acoustic characteristics of unconventional aircraft, and the inclusion of unconventional aircraft in t

Constant Elasticity of Transformation (CET) functions are widely used to allocate land across uses in Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models. These models fail to maintain the physical area of land in balance. This paper examines this issue. It shows that heterogeneity in land prices (rents) is the main source of imbalance in land area, not th

The FAA Aerospace Forecasts are developed to support budget and planning needs of the FAA. The forecasts are developed using statistical models to explain and incorporate emerging trends of the different segments of the aviation industry.
This study examines the integration of commercial liquid fuels production from biomass using the alcohol-to-jet pathway into a conventional kraft pulp mill operation. Mill assets including feed handling and supply chain infrastructure, power and recovery systems, and potential equipment retrofitting opportunities are utilized by a fuel production u

This paper describes an analysis of the near-lean blow off(LBO) dynamics of spray flames, including the influence of fuel composition upon these dynamics. It is motivated by the fact that, while reasonable correlations exist for predicting blow off conditions, the fundamental reasons for why flames supported by flow recirculation actually blow off

The goal of this report is to provide insights regarding the potential unintended negative impacts that the introduction of automation can have on human performance and resultant system behavior when a decision support system fails or exhibits degraded performance. It further provides human factors guidance on methods to mitigate potential risks to

This research study aims at evaluating the benefits of using geosynthetics to reinforce/stabilize base aggregate layer/subgrade in pavements under repeated loading test conditions. For this purpose, a total of six 80-ft long and 13 ft wide full-scale test lane sections were constructed, among which two sections were reinforced by one or two layers

Sustainable aviation fuels remain the only near, mid, and likely long term solution for lowering the carbon emissions of commercial and military aviation. Determination of sustainable aviation fuel’s chemical compositions and prediction of their properties is a critical first step for further research and development leading to the final certificat
