NOISE CONTROL DESIGN PROBLEMS ON AIR CUSHION VEHICLES AND SURFACE EFFECT SHIPS

The article presents an overview of noise control design problems on surface effect vehicles. There are several general operating characteristics and acoustic design features which make this type of craft different from conventional ships. As a result, attention must be given to all potential noise sources in order to achieve the objective of a quiet and habitable ship.
