Abstract:

The objective of this project was to continue research at The Pennsylvania State University in the ASCENT Center of Excellence to complement the sonic boom standards development ongoing within the Committee for Aviation Environmental Protection's (CAEP) Working Group 1 (Noise Technical), Supersonics Standards Task Group (SSTG). This research aimed to ensure that the behavior of the sonic boom metrics considered in the SSTG discussions were well-understood, as such metrics may be utilized in future sonic boom certification and/or rulemaking. The research focused on investigating the stability of the metrics in the presence of atmospheric turbulence effects and also on an initial investigation to remove turbulence effects (de-turbing) from measured sonic boom signatures. This project showed that some sonic boom metrics are less sensitive to atmospheric turbulence effects than others.
