This book was released on 2018-06-28 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A man rated and computer driven sonic boom simulator which has been constructed and placed in operational use at NASA-Langley is described. The simulator is used to study human subjective reactions to sonic booms and has the capability of producing a wide range of signatures under controlled conditions. Results are presented to illustrate the capability of the simulator to generate user specified N-wave and shaped booms having rise times as low as 0.5 milliseconds and peak overpressures up to 191 Pa (4 psf). The validity of the simulator as a lab research tool for studying human subjective response to sonic booms was demonstrated by successful completion of a preliminary test designed to compare loudness of N-wave sonic booms with results obtained by other investigators. Excellent agreement of the preliminary test data with existing data was observed. This provided confidence in the experimental methodology and established the simulator as a viable tool for performing detailed evaluations of sonic boom loudness and acceptability within the lab. environment.

This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sonic Boom Simulator at NASA LaRC was used for the following: (1) quantify subjective loudness of simulated composite sonic booms, each of which was comprised of a simulated direct (non-reflected) boom combined with a simulated reflection of the direct boom; and (2) evaluate several metrics as estimators of loudness for these composite booms. The direct booms consisted of selected N-wave and minimized signatures having front-shock rise times of 3, 6, and 9 milliseconds and durations of 300 milliseconds. Delay times of the reflected booms ranged from 0 to 12 milliseconds. Subjective loudness results indicated that composite booms formed using reflections with non-zero delay times were generally rated as being less loud than composite booms containing non-delayed reflections. The largest reductions in loudness occurred when delay times were equal to the front shock rise times of the direct booms and were, in some cases, equivalent to reductions in Perceived Level of 6 to 7 dB. Results also showed Perceived Level to be an effective metric for assessing subjective loudness effects for the composite signatures. This was confirmed by statistical analysis, which showed that, for equal Perceived Level, no significant differences existed between the subjective loudness responses to composite booms containing reflections with zero delay and those containing reflections with non-zero delays.

This book was released on 2018-10-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sonic boom simulator of the Langley Research Center was used to quantify subjective loudness and annoyance response to simulated indoor and outdoor sonic boom signatures. The indoor signatures were derived from the outdoor signatures by application of house filters that approximated the noise reduction characteristics of a residential structure. Two indoor listening situations were simulated: one with the windows open and the other with the windows closed. Results were used to assess loudness and annoyance as sonic boom criterion measures and to evaluate several metrics as estimators of loudness and annoyance. The findings indicated that loudness and annoyance were equivalent criterion measures for outdoor booms but not for indoor booms. Annoyance scores for indoor booms were significantly higher than indoor loudness scores. Thus, annoyance was recommended as the criterion measure of choice for general use in assessing sonic boom subjective effects. Perceived level was determined to be the best estimator of annoyance for both indoor and outdoor booms, and of loudness for outdoor booms. It was recommended as the metric of choice for predicting sonic boom subjective effects. Leatherwood, Jack D. and Sullivan, Brenda M. Langley Research Center RTOP 537-03-21-03...

This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A laboratory study was conducted for the following reasons: (1) to investigate the application of magnitude estimation scaling for evaluating the subjective loudness of sonic booms; and (2) to compare the relative merits of magnitude estimation and numerical category scaling for sonic boom loudness evaluation. The study was conducted in the NASA LeRC's sonic boom simulator and used a total of 80 test subjects (48 for magnitude estimation and 32 for numerical category scaling). Results demonstrated that magnitude estimation was a practical and effective method for quantifying subjective loudness of sonic booms. When using magnitude estimation, the subjects made valid and consistent ratio judgments of sonic boom loudness irrespective of the frequency of presentation of the standard stimulus. Presentation of the standard as every fourth stimulus was preferred by the subjects and is recommended as the standard presentation frequency to be used in future tests.

This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two laboratory experiments were conducted to quantify the subjective response of people to simulated outdoor sonic booms having different pressure signatures. The specific objectives of the experiments were to compare subjective response to sonic booms when described in terms of 'loudness' and 'annoyance'; to determine the ability of various noise metrics to predict subjective response to sonic booms; to determine the effects on subjective response of rise time, duration, and level; and to compare the subjective response to 'N-wave' sonic boom signatures with the subjective response to 'minimized' sonic boom signatures. The experiments were conducted in a computer-controlled, man-rated sonic boom simulator capable of reproducing user-specified pressure signatures for a wide range of sonic boom parameters. One hundred and fifty sonic booms representing different combinations of two wave shapes, four rise times, seven durations, and three peak overpressures were presented to 36 test subjects in each experiment. The test subjects in the first experiment made judgments of 'loudness' while the test subjects in the second experiment judged 'annoyance.' Subjective response to sonic booms was the same whether expressed in terms of loudness or in terms of annoyance. Analyses of several different noise metrics indicated that A-weighted sound exposure level and Perceived Level were the best predictors of subjective response. Further analyses indicated that, of these two noise metrics, only Perceived Level completely accounted for the effects of wave shape, rise time, and peak overpressure. Neither metric fully accounted for the effect of duration. However, the magnitude of the duration effect was small over the very wide range of durations considered. Mccurdy, David A.

Download or read book Behavioral, Automatic, and Subjective Reactions to Low- and Moderate-Level Simulated Sonic Booms: A Report of Two Experiments and a General Evaluation of Sonic Boom Startle Effects written by Richard I. Thackray and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two separate studies are reported. The first attempted to determine a sonic boom exposure level below which startle reactions would not occur. Subjects were exposed indoors to six simulated sonic booms having various outside overpressures. In the second study, subjects were exposed indoors to a series of 12 simulated booms in order to assess habitual effects. Automatic and eyeblink responses, as well as ratings of subjective annoyance, were obtained in both studies. The final section of the report summarizes the expected behavioral, autonomic, and subjective effects of exposure to various levels of sonic booms.
