Numerical solution to nonlinear Tricomi equation using WENO schemes by Adrian Sescu, Abdollah A. Afjeh, Carmen Sescu

“…Nonlinear Tricomi equation is a hybrid (hyperbolic-elliptic) second order partial differential equation, modelling the sonic boom focusing. In this paper, the Tricomi equation is transformed into a hyperbolic system of first order equations, in conservation law form. …”

Low-Boom Design for Supersonic Transport with Canard and Forward-Swept Wings Using Equivalent Area Design Method by Yuki Kishi, Risato Yashiro, Masahiro Kanazaki

“…The design results indicated that the forward-swept wing configuration with a canard could divide the single peak of the leading boom into two peaks. Thus, the sonic boom strength of the canard configuration was 2.5 PLdB lower than that of the configuration without the canard wing.…”

Shock Capturing with PDE-Based Artificial Viscosity for an Adaptive, Higher-Order Discontinuous Galerkin Finite Element Method by Barter, Garrett Ehud

“…This includes the near-field pressure signals necessary for sonic boom prediction. When applied to heat transfer prediction on unstructured meshes in hypersonic flows, the PDE-based artificial viscosity is less susceptible to errors introduced by poor shock-grid alignment. …”

Whatever Happened to Delia Derbyshire? Delia Derbyshire, Visual Art, and the Myth of her Post-BBC Activity by David Butler

“…For many years, the standard account of Derbyshire’s life has been that, following her departure from the BBC in 1973, she withdrew from creative activity until the final few years of her life when she began to collaborate with Peter Kember (Sonic Boom). These accounts have sometimes veered into sensationalist cliché—a 2008 article in The Times characterised Derbyshire as a tragic and self-destructive artist who abandoned music for “a series of unsuitable jobs” and became a “hopeless alcoholic”.1 Recent discoveries and donations to the Delia Derbyshire Archive, however, have pointed to a more complex understanding of Derbyshire’s activity after she left the BBC. …”

Climate impact of supersonic air traffic: an approach to optimize a potential future supersonic fleet ─ results from the EU-project SCENIC by I.S.A. Isaksen, L. Gulstad, J. Pyle, O. Dessens, H. Rogers, D. Iachetti, G. Pitari, R. Sausen, M. Ponater, A. Stenke, V. Grewe, O.A. Søvde, C. Marizy, E. Pascuillo

“…However, besides noise and sonic boom issues, which we are not referring to in this investigation, emissions from supersonic aircraft are known to alter the atmospheric composition, in particular the ozone layer, and hence affect climate significantly more than subsonic aircraft. …”
