Aircraft Noise
Examines the origins of aircraft noise and the methods of measuring and controlling it.
Aircraft Noise
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 s

A Guide To U.S. Aircraft Noise Regulatory Policy
Aviation noise remains the primary hindrance to expansion of airport and airspace capacity in the United States. This book describes the development and practice of U.S. aircraft noise regulation, as well as the practical consequences of regulatory policy. Starting in the pre-jet transport era, the book traces the development of the modern framework for characterizing, standardizing, predicting, disclosing, and mitigating aircraft noise and its effects on airport-vicinity communities. Among other matters, the book treats noise-related consequences of the 1978 deregulation of the airline industry; prediction and mitigation of community reaction to airport noise; land use compatibility plannin...
Aircraft Noise
This guidebook should be of interest to airport managers and other staff from airports of all sizes who are responsible for responding to neighboring communities regarding aircraft noise issues. It provides guidance on how best to improve communications with the public about issues related to aircraft noise exposure. Specifically, the guidebook presents best practices that characterize an effective communications program and provides basic information about noise and its abatement to assist in responding to public inquiries. It also suggests tools useful to initiate a new or upgrade an existing program of communication with public and private stakeholders about noise issues. An accompanying CD-ROM contains a toolkit with examples of material that has been successfully used to communicate information about noise, as well as numerous guidance documents about noise and communications that have seldom been brought together in the same resource.
Effects of Aircraft Noise
"TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Synthesis 9: Effects of Aircraft Noise: Research Update on Select Topics includes an annotated bibliography and summary of new research on the effects of aircraft noise. The report is designed to update and complement the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration's 1985 Aviation Noise Effects report"--Publisher's description
Evaluating Methods for Determining Interior Noise Levels Used in Airport Sound Insulation Programs
This report provides guidance for selecting and implementing methods for measuring noise level reduction in dwellings associated with airport noise insulation programs. The research complements the results of ACRP Report 89: Guidelines for Airport Sound Insulation Programs and was undertaken to assess the accuracy and validity of various noise level reduction measurement procedures currently used in airport noise insulation programs. Acoustical field measurements were made at 10 homes near San Diego International Airport and nine homes near Boston Logan International Airport. Seven measurement methods were tested: outdoor ground-level artificial sound source (loudspeaker); outdoor elevated a...
Aviation and the environment transition to quieter aircraft occurred as planned, but concerns about noise persist.
Aircraft noise is a major concern in communities around airports despite considerable reductions in such noise and a corresponding decrease in the population exposed to it. Moreover, concern about noise remains a constraint on efforts to expand airport capacity to meet the growing demand for air travel. The Congress has authorized the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to regulate aircraft noise. The Airport Noise and Capacity Act (ANCA) of 1990 established December 31, 1999, as the deadline for airlines to phase out the use of existing jet aircraft weighing more than 75,000 pounds that had not been modified to comply with current aircraft noise standards, called Stage 3. 1 Until ANCA's passage, only newly designed or newly manufactured aircraft were required to comply with the Stage 3 aircraft noise standards. Recently, the United States participated with other countries in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to develop a more stringent aircraft noise standard for subsonic jets and large propeller-driven aircraft. On June 27, 2001, the ICAO Council approved the adoption of a new noise certification standard called Chapter 4.
