Measurement of sonic-boom characteristics by a ballistic method
Abstract
The action of sonic boom generated by a supersonic aircraft on the underlying surface and structures is analyzed. A facility and procedure are proposed for measuring sonic boom parameters, using ballistic methods developed for use with an aeroballistic tunnel designed to measure the aerodynamic drag of models at hypersonic speeds.
