Sonic boom in oligodendrogenesis

Indoor Sonic Boom Reproduction Using ANC

ABSTRACT The European programs for development of supersonic air-flights involve new studies on the human perception of sonic boom. Because this noise includes high-level components at very low-frequency, the usual psycho-acoustic tests with headphones are not relevant; instead, the original sound-field can be reproduced with many loudspeakers in a small room, but the loudspeakers must be contr...

Sonic Boom in the Little Bang at RHIC ?

The Big Bang Model is a widely accepted theory for the origin and evolution of our universe. It postulates that ∼ 12−14 billion years ago, a hot and dense plasma of quarks and gluons (QGP) was produced a few micro seconds after the “big bang”. A pervading uniform glow of cold cosmic microwave background provides an unequivocal signature for the subsequent expansion from this hot and dense state...

Automatic Differentiation for Optimum Design, Applied to Sonic Boom Reduction

Prediction, Minimization and Propagation of Sonic Boom from Supersonic Bodies

This paper first describes the numerical simulation and shape optimization of the Lockheed SEEB-ALR and 69 Degree Delta Wing-Body for computing the sonic boom signature in the nearfield and its minimization using a genetic algorithm. Then the propagation of sonic boom in the atmosphere is simulated all the way to the ground for both the original and optimized body shapes. For flow field calcula...

Recent progress on sonic boom research at NASA

Sonic boom research conducted at NASA through the Supersonics Project of the Fundamental Aeronautics Program is oriented toward understanding the potential impact of sonic boom noise on communities from new low-boom supersonic aircraft designs. Encompassing research in atmospheric propagation, structural response, and human response, NASA research contributes to knowledge in key areas needed to...
