Conference Proceeding
Ahmed, F., Ramos-Romero, C. A., Torija Martinez, A. J., & Azarpeyvand, M. (2024). Boundary Layer Ingestion Ducted Fan: Aeroacoustic and Psychoacoustic Insights. . https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2024-3379

An in-depth experimental study was conducted to investigate the noise characteristics of a ducted fan ingesting an adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer, typical of those encountered in novel airframe-integrated propulsion systems. To ga... Read More about Boundary Layer Ingestion Ducted Fan: Aeroacoustic and Psychoacoustic Insights.

Synthesis and Auralisations of Quadcopter Flyovers for Psychoacoustic Assessment. (2024)
Conference Proceeding

Acoustic and Psychoacoustic Characterisation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems as a Function of Vehicle Mass and Flight Procedure (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Torija Martinez, A. J., Ramos-Romero, C. A., & Green, N. (2024). Acoustic and Psychoacoustic Characterisation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems as a Function of Vehicle Mass and Flight Procedure. . https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2024-3235

Previous studies have found the noise emission of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) highly dependent on the vehicle mass and flight procedure. These changes in noise emission, as well as the position of the UAS relative to the receiver, have led to cha...

Aerodynamics and Acoustics of Asymmetric Propellers With Uneven Blade Spacing (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Usov, D., Koning, D., Chronis, T., Filippone, A., Akiwate, D., & Torija Martinez, A. J. (2024). Aerodynamics and Acoustics of Asymmetric Propellers With Uneven Blade Spacing. . https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2024-3265

The presented work aims to establish whether asymmetric propellers with uneven blade spacing offer any acoustic benefits over a conventional propeller with identical blade geometry. An experimental investigation was conducted to measure static thrust... Read More about Aerodynamics and Acoustics of Asymmetric Propellers With Uneven Blade Spacing.
