Bringing together 16 partners including research and technology organisations, universities, large industries, and small and medium-sized enterprises from 7 EU countries, the project will significantly contribute to Europe’s leadership in aircraft noise reduction and solutions. The EU-funded INVENTOR project will study the physics of noise generated by landing gears and high-lift devices at landing/approach, and develop innovative low-noise installed landing gear and high-lift components and noise reduction technologies, in order to lower external noise from business jetand short-to-medium-range transport aircraft.

Reducing noise levels is a challenging priority, since noise pollution poses a high risk to human health, topping priorities of policy makers and, thus, driving significant industrial challenges for aircraft manufacturers. High-lift devices (slat, flaps) and landing gears are the chief noise sources, since engines are operated at low regime in these configurations. From favourites like An圜AD to powerful new additions like Model-Based Definition (MBD), you’ll find the capabilities modern engineers like you demand. High lift devices (slats, slat tracks, flaps) and landing gears.Īircraft are noisy, especially in airport areas, during approach and landing. Autodesk Inventor 2018 is packed with amazing new features and improvements that deliver better productivity, faster performance, and expanded interoperability.
