Sonic boom propagation in stratified atmosphere

Rudolph C Haefeli, Wallace Dean Hayes, Helene E. Kulsrud

Abstract

Comprehensive analysis and algorithm, realized in a computer program, provides realistic calculations for sonic boom signatures in the atmosphere. Algorithm includes maneuvering aircraft in a sonic boom pressure calculation, a ray-tube area calculation, and results in the form of complete signatures.
