Supersonic jet noise and flow dynamics represent a critical area of research within aerospace engineering, intertwining the study of high-speed fluid mechanics, shock-wave generation and acoustic ...

University of Cincinnati doctoral student adjusts a jet engine mounted to the floor of an anechoic chamber to study jet noise. Jet engines can make a symphony of sound from rumbles and roars to ...

QUIET DOWN: The Office of Naval Research (ONR) and NASA are teaming on a project to reduce jet noise. ONR is awarding grants and contracts to six academic institutions and two commercial companies to ...

Modern fighter jets are very loud. They can blast between 140 and 153 decibels of noise on takeoff when they use their afterburners, which is enough to burst a person's eardrums if they're at close ...

The Air Force intends to change some flight patterns above Tucson. This will increase the noise of fighter jets over our homes. Currently, many of the jets based at Davis-Monthan and at Tucson ...
