Noise assessment of multirotor configurations during landing proceduresa).

This study numerically investigates the noise impact of multirotor aerial vehicles with different rotor scales during landing procedures. The operational environments of individual rotors are influenced by rotational speed and wake dynamics, leading to variations in landing noise characteristics. Noise impacts are evaluated across various landing operations from both physical and psychoacoustic perspectives using noise source hemispheres and noise maps.

Prediction-based psychoacoustic analysis of multirotor noise under gusty wind conditions.

This study presents a comprehensive numerical framework for auralizing multirotor noise during complex maneuvers, incorporating rotor tonal and broadband noise prediction, synthesis, and psychoacoustic analysis. Validation studies for various flight scenarios, including single rotors and quadrotors, confirm the capability of this framework in the prediction-based psychoacoustic analysis of multirotor configurations. The primary focus of this research is to assess the flyover and takeoff noise of multirotors under diverse operating conditions.
