Abstract:
Creating accurate rocket noise models is important for assessing impacts on humans, the environment, and payloads. The United Launch Alliance Delta IV Heavy launch vehicle is unique because of the separation of the three cores and their associated RS-68A nozzles. This makes it a good candidate for determining how the asymmetry of nozzle configuration affects noise radiation, which can affect noise models. The NROL-82 and NROL-91 missions both launched from Vandenberg Spaceforce Base using Delta IV Heavy Vehicles. For both of these launches, acoustic data were recorded between ∼0.9 and ∼5.2 km from the vehicle at different azimuths to determine the extent of azimuthal asymmetry in noise radiation. Maximum overall sound pressure level, spectra, and overall power level were determined for each launch. Methods for comparing the datasets and results will be discussed.

Abstract:
As the global space industry expands, rockets are being launched from an increasing number of spaceports, including in Australia. As launch cadence increases to meet demand for space access and as vehicle optimization for weight and cost reduction becomes more pressing, noise has the potential to create harmful impacts—from vehicle vibroacoustic loading to expanded environmental footprint. Using data from recently measured launches, this presentation reviews rocket noise generation and propagation fundamentals and discusses some of these impacts. As small- and medium-payload orbital rocket launches are currently planned for Australian spaceports, preliminary noise predictions around these spaceports are described for representative vehicle launches. Eventual refinement and validation of these predictions will aid in assessing potential noise impacts on threatened and endangered species, such as the southern emu wren.

Abstract:
The Falcon 9 rocket has successfully launched nearly 300 orbital missions, providing the opportunity to study noise radiation and propagation variability. Acoustical measurements of several Falcon 9 launches have been made on and near Vandenberg Space Force Base, ranging 0.5 to 14 km from the launch pad. This paper’s purpose is to compare collocated measurements from different Falcon 9 launches to begin to understand data variability as a function of launch and environmental conditions. One far-field location, at a distance of 8.4 km, has been measured across all launches, whereas several other locations spanned subsets of launches. This comparative analysis includes time-varying levels, spectra, and waveform statistics such as the pressure derivative skewness. Time periods of particular interest are liftoff, peak noise, and late into the launch when the vehicle is significantly downrange. [Work supported in part by the NSF REU program and by USACE.]

Abstract:
Abstract: Space vehicles are subjected to significant dynamic pressure loads when their rocket propulsion systems are in use during flying missions. During the aerodynamic and launch phases, launch vehicles, payloads, and their parts are subjected to extremely high random acoustic loads. The noise from the engine exhaust gas, aerodynamic boundary layer noise, transonic buffering, structure-borne vibration, engine thrust fluctuation, etc. is the source of these loads, which also result in a secondary acoustic load. When the vehicle is lifting off and traveling at a speed greater than Mach number, acoustic stresses to the spacecraft and payload are very harsh and significant. This loading causes the structure to vibrate randomly, which could be dangerous for some vehicle parts, avionics, propulsion systems, and payloads like satellites. This paper discusses the vibration of the structure subjected to acoustic excitation on a diffuse acoustic field and the software used for the analysis.

Abstract:
This presentation documents initial findings from far-field noise measurements at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center during liftoff of the Space Launch System’s Artemis I mission, which occurred on November 16, 2022. The vehicle— the most powerful ever successfully launched into orbit—consists of four liquid-fueled RS-25 engines and two five-segment, solid-fuel rocket boosters (SRBs). Because this was the first launch, the noise radiation characteristics of this vehicle were previously unknown. Overall sound pressure levels, waveform characteristics, and spectra are described at distances ranging from 1.5 to 8.4 km. The levels due to the SRBs’ ignition overpressure are particularly intense in the direction of the flame trench exit. The post-liftoff maximum one-third octave spectrum has a peak at 20 Hz, and maximum overall levels are greater than described in a pre-launch environmental assessment. These and other findings presently submitted to JASA Express Letters further understanding of super heavy-lift rocket acoustics.

Abstract:
In the world there are various types of unmanned vehicles: Unmanned ground vehicle, unmanned aerial vehicle, unmanned surface vehicle and unmanned underwater vehicle. The objective of this paper, however, is to present the importance of an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) in the Black Sea. The safe operations of all USVs are carried out by experienced and qualified operators. These operators can control a USV from a ship or from land. An USV is equipped with various devices (eg. video camera, long range antennae or autopilot box) depending on the mission it has to carry out at sea. These boats are launched through launch and recovery system (LARS). Furthermore, the USVs do not pollute and do not make noise during their activity on sea. Finally, it is expected that the unmanned surface vehicles will further develop, depending on new requirements present in the Black Sea.

Karthikeyan, N. "On the Contribution of the Launch Platform towards Acoustic Environment of a Launch Vehicle at Lift-off." Thesis, 2017. http://etd.iisc.ac.in/handle/2005/4313.

Full text
Abstract:
A launch vehicle experiences intense acoustic loading in the initial phase of its lift-off due to the noise generated by the rocket exhaust. This affects the launch vehicle structure in addition to sensitive payloads and may result in their failure. The launch vehicle structure has to be specially stiffened to withstand such loading which adversely affects its payload capabilities. Therefore, the mitigation of the lift-off acoustic environment of the launch vehicle is of utmost importance. At lift-off, the components of launch environment such as the launch platform and jet blast deflector contribute to the intense acoustic loads experienced by the launch vehicle by either reflecting the noise generated by the rocket jet exhaust or by creating additional sources of noise. Though the effect of jet blast deflector shape on the acoustic loading has been extensively investigated, contributions from other launch structures such as the launch platform are often ignored. The present work attempts to characterize the acoustic behaviour of the launch platform by simulating a scaled down launch vehicle environment at lift-off, inside an anechoic chamber. The lift-off scenario was simulated by allowing jets from single and twin jet launch vehicle models to impinge on flat plates with and without cut-outs, at varying lift-off distances. The results from the acoustic measurements carried out in the near and far-field of the launch vehicle models show that the presence of the cut-outs have significant effect on the near-field acoustics of the launch vehicle at low lift-off distances(L/De). The acoustic field in the vicinity of the launch vehicle is found to be considerably lower than that obtained when jets impinged on solid flat plates without cut-outs. The influence of the cut-outs, diminishes at higher L/De, when a large fraction of the jet, in addition to flowing through the cut-outs, impinges on the launch platform. The study also explores a new concept of including perforations in the launch platform as a means to attenuate the its contribution to the acoustic levels experienced by the launch vehicle. The inclusion of perforations in the launch platform, decreased the surface area of the launch platform available for jet impingement at higher L/De, thereby reducing the acoustic levels experienced by the launch vehicle at these lift-off distances. The perforated launch platform is found to be effective even with the presence of jet blast deflector, all the way up to 16 nozzle diameters after lift-off. Flow visualizations using schlieren technique indicate that the effectiveness of the perforations stem from the fact that they reduce the strength of the flow features such as wall jets and fountain flow - that are characteristic of jet impingement. The thesis brings out the significant contribution to the lift-off noise from a typical launch platform and the role of flow features like the wall jets and the fountain flow towards noise generation. It is shown that an attenuation of about 4-5 dB can be achieved at L/De>8 by perforating the platform. An optimal design of the launch platform incorporating the perforations can considerably reduce the acoustic loading of the launch vehicle thereby increasing its payload capabilities and ensuring its safety.

Abstract:
In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology has made remarkable progress in many fields, especially in the path planning of fixed-wing UAVs. In the face of complex task scenarios, fixed UAVs need to consider various scenarios, generate conforms to aircraft performance, and make autonomous decision-making to evade and standby flight routes to meet the needs of load adaptation and performance guarantee. Especially for some specific load unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the flight path planning is in advance before launch, so the ground stage of route planning is the key. This paper puts forward A kind based on A* heuristic search algorithm of the optimum path planning method, through the Alpha - Beta pruning to accelerate the search process, using Douglas-Peucker curve smoking loose to reduce cost, time and space combined with spline interpolation and polynomial fitting rounds of optimization, Finally, the critical routes with the ability to evade, wait and attack are generated. The experimental results show that the algorithm achieves 4.5% optimization in the path length, and the smoothness of the curve is improved by 36.71%. It has the planning ability to hover and wait in the mission area, effectively improving the path generation’s smoothness, effectiveness, and refinement. It also reduces the route length, showing good anti-data noise and long path planning ability.

Abstract:
Abstract Vibroacoustics during space vehicle launch has been blamed for as many as 60% of first day satellite failures. At the Air Force Research Laboratory in Albuquerque NM USA, modeling and analysis was performed to determine the feasibility of monolithic piezoceramic actuators and active acoustic control to reduce noise transmission during launch of the OSP launch vehicle with a hypothetical composite fairing. Voltage, power and energy were studied as a function of transmission reduction. The conclusion reached for the case explored in depth was that off-the-shelf monolithic piezoceramic actuators did not have sufficient control authority to reduce noise transmission at realistic sound levels.

Abstract:
The vibro-acoustic environment inside a launch vehicle payload fairing is extremely violent resulting in excessive development costs for satellites and other payloads. The development of smart structures and active noise and vibration control technologies promised to revolutionize the design, construction and, most importantly, the acoustic environment within these fairings. However, the early promise of these technologies has not been realized in such large-scale systems primarily because of the excessive complexity, cost and weight associated with centralized control systems. Now, recent developments in MEMS sensors and actuators, along with networked embedded processor technology, have opened new research avenues in decentralized controls based on networked embedded systems. This work describes the development and comparison of decentralized control systems that utilize this new control paradigm. The controllers are hosted on numerous nodes, possessing limited computational capability, sensors and actuators. Each of these nodes is also capable of communicating with other nodes via a wired or wireless network. The constraints associated with networked embedded systems control that the control systems be relatively simple computationally, scalable and robust to failures. Simulations were conducted that demonstrate the ability of such a control architecture to attenuate specific structural modes.

Abstract:
As market demands vehicles with higher performance, lower fuel consumption, and less emission, hybrid vehicles receive increasing attention. Hybrid technologies have been developed for both passenger and heavy-duty vehicles. Hydraulic hybrid is a technology that is specifically suitable for heavy SUVs and trucks. Despite beneficial aspects of hydraulic systems in reducing the fuel consumption and increasing the launch acceleration for these vehicles, hydraulic vibration and noise is barrier in commercializing this technology. Many studies have been performed on noise and vibration problems of hydraulic systems and many solutions have been proposed. This paper, after introducing the hydraulic hybrid vehicle technology and conventional hydraulic systems in vehicles, reviews the state of the art of the solutions developed for hydraulic noise and vibration. The focus is on the sources of hydraulic noise and vibration. Different approaches for reducing the noise and vibration in hydraulic systems have been reviewed with an emphasis on the application of smart materials. These existing solutions are examined and evaluated for mitigating noise and vibration in hydraulic hybrid vehicles.
