Abstract:
The only problem in aviation and airport development is the noise print on population groups surrounding airports due to its high frequency it is so annoying for human ear. In order to overcome this problem technology has reached its edge and the only alternative is to deviate terminal flight path.In this thesis I tried find a pattern for optimizing terminal flight path considering a Boeing 737-800 taking off from Mehrabad airport’s runway 29. To do this we were in need of a huge database of airplane low speed model, geographic information and population knowledge.The common approaches used by FAA and other international organizations for modeling low speed flight were used. The influence of optimization method were considered and applicability of the results was tested using one single airplane take off as stated above.The results were satisfying showing a greate decrease in noise quantity using this approach about 3 decibels in EPNL. Considering that this is a new phenomenon in Iran and the increasing importance of noise problem I tried to develop a usable base for future works in noise modeling of terminal flights
