Project Summary
This project will examine noise and energy efficient AAM/UAM flight operations. Various AAM and UAM aircraft are being proposed in industry and their operations and noise impacts must be considered for implementation into the National Airspace. AAM configurations can feature unique operating modes, such as blown lift for short takeoff and landing aircraft (STOL). A first principles flight procedure and noise modeling approach will be implemented for different operating modes for the conceptual design of low noise flight operations for these vehicles.
