Abstract
Review and discussion of substantive to revolutionary concepts to enable a commercially viable, societally acceptable supersonic transport. Issues addressed include economic viability, take off noise, sonic boom, emissions and frontier aircraft configurations. Solution spaces include an enabler for most of the issues, which is doubling the lift-to-drag ratio. Approaches in most cases require serious further research for application to and optimization of frontier aircraft configurations.
期刊介绍:
"Progress in Aerospace Sciences" is a prestigious international review journal focusing on research in aerospace sciences and its applications in research organizations, industry, and universities. The journal aims to appeal to a wide range of readers and provide valuable information.
The primary content of the journal consists of specially commissioned review articles. These articles serve to collate the latest advancements in the expansive field of aerospace sciences. Unlike other journals, there are no restrictions on the length of papers. Authors are encouraged to furnish specialist readers with a clear and concise summary of recent work, while also providing enough detail for general aerospace readers to stay updated on developments in fields beyond their own expertise.
