2. 1. Individual Preferences, Choices, and Risk Perceptions - survey based evidence

   Author : Elina Lampi; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; administrators; aircraft; airports; birth order; choice experiment; citizens; environmental policy; female infertility; free entrance; general risk; health care; information; media; museum; natural experiment; noise; only-child; optimistic bias; personal risk; positional concern; relative income; siblings; stated preferences; visitor composition.;

   Abstract : Paper 1 investigates how birth order and having siblings affect positional concerns in terms of success at work and of income. We find that only-children are the most positional, but that number of siblings increases the concern for their position among those who grew up together with siblings. READ MORE

4. 2. Final Approach : Measurements and Ratings of Aircraft Landing Noise

   Author : Anders Johansson; Karl Bolin; Susann Boij; Antonio Filippone; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aircraft noise; acoustic measurements; psycho acoustics measurements; noise annoyance; Flygplansbuller; akustiska mätningar; psykoakustiska mätningar; bullerstörning; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

   Abstract : Följande avregleringen av flygmarknaden har flygtrafiken ökat snabbt sedan mitten av 1990-talet. Detta har oundvikligen lett till en utbyggnad av flygplatser, vilket på många platser runt om i världen har lett till oro och konflikter på grund av ökade bullernivåer. READ MORE

5. 3. Study of Supersonic Jet Noise Reduction using LES

   Author : Haukur Hafsteinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; G3D; Supersonic Jet; PIV; CD-nozzle; CFD; Compressible flow; CAA; Noise Reduction; LES; Flow Control;

   Abstract : Increases in air traffic and denser population around airports have led to stricterregulations on aircraft noise. High noise levels from high-speed aircraft can causehearing damage in pilots and the airfield personnel. The engine is the main sourceof noise of all jet aircraft and is therefore a key component for improvement. READ MORE

6. 4. Physics-based Modelling for Aircraft Noise and Emission Predictions

   Author : Evangelia Maria Thoma; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; measurements; trajectories.; emissions; interdependencies; FDR; turbofan engine; aircraft noise; physics-based modelling;

   Abstract : Starting from semi-empirical noise source models for the aircraft and 4D trajectory computations, this work focuses on the environmental assessment of scenario studies regarding technology evaluation and procedural planning. Extensive work was performed on improving and validating the existing tools. READ MORE

7. 5. Numerical Simulations of Noise Reduction Devices for Aero Engines

   Author : Haukur Hafsteinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustic liner; G3D; CAA; CFD; CD-nozzle; LES;

   Abstract : Increasing air traffic and denser population around airports have led to stricterregulations on aircraft noise. The engine is the main source of noise of jet aircraft.Decreasing jet engine noise can in some cases reduce sonic fatigue andthereby increase the engine lifetime. READ MORE
