From Phys.org:
Have you ever had a fighter jet fly over your home and the noise of the aircraft booms loud enough to rattle the windows? Well, imagine working on an aircraft carrier or air base, up close to the engines as they take off or land. Even with ear plugs, the noise can be deafening.
Virginia Tech's College of Engineering is one of several U.S.-based research teams tasked with finding a solution as part of a three-year project funded by the U.S. Office of Naval Research's Hot Jet Noise Reduction program, related to a broader Navy initiative known as the Noise Induced Hearing Loss program.
The Navy's goal: Reduce noise exposure on the flight deck and its impact on the communities near air bases or in the path of jet flyovers. NASA also is partially funding the project.
