    Improved active vibration isolator

    Author(s): Dixon, G. V.; Leatherwood, J. D.; Stephens, D. G.
    Abstract: Active vibration isolator simultaneously isolates a flexible structure or payload from disturbances, attenuates the response of a flexible structure to transient disturbances, and maintains the equilibrium position of the ...

    Subjective response to simulated sonic booms with ground reflections

    Author(s): Sullivan, B. M.; Leatherwood, J. D.
    Abstract: The Sonic Boom Simulator at NASA LaRC was used for the following: (1) quantify subjective loudness of simulated composite sonic booms, each of which was comprised of a simulated direct (non-reflected) boom combined with a ...
