Abstract: | <p> This study deals with applied research in the field of environmentai noise problems, specifically the measuring of noise patterns near Mount Hope Airport originating from subsonic jet aircraft using the present runway facilities. Based on actual measurements the results have been analyzed and reduced to simple contour lines. </p> <p> An attempt has been made in this study to relate the concept of community noise in the vicinity of the airport to specific runway configurations, traffic density and patterns, and to provide a comparison between the noise levels due to the existing operations and those which may result due to the proposed expansion. Versatile computer programs have been developed in this study to simulate an airport model, compute and construct the noise contours for any combination of design requirements such as runway orientation, flight procedure, type of aircraft, etc </p> |
