Advanced capabilities for noise management
Managing the acoustic footprint is not just a regulatory requirement. It is a pillar of sustainable growth and community acceptance. Airbus leverages decades of acoustic expertise to help stakeholders assess, project, and mitigate the impact of aircraft noise.
From high-accuracy modeling and Noise Abatement Flight Procedure design with hands-on testing at our Hamburg acoustic laboratories, we provide actionable insights to improve your environmental footprint. By leveraging our state-of-the-art capabilities and deep technical knowledge, we empower you to provide the clarity needed to balance operational performance with community.
Aviation noise - Simulation & data
- External Noise Evaluation: Assess the impact of real or simulated flight procedures using aircraft noise modeling.
- Departure Procedure Optimization: Design more efficient Noise Abatement Flight Procedures (NADP) with a multi-criteria approach that accounts for both fuel and noise efficiency.
- Airport Noise Projection: Estimate the noise reduction achievable at an individual airport through the introduction of newer and better performing aircraft.
Communication
- Exhibit: Create a contemporary 'listening stand' for your site using an upcycled aircraft nacelle. This exhibition will serve as a communication tool to highlight aviation's commitment to reducing and mitigating aircraft noise.
- Education: Bring Airbus acoustic experts to your company or your consultative forums to provide a masterclass on aircraft noise, covering the topics of technologies, metrics, perception and more.
