MODELING TECHNIQUE FOR THE EVALUTAION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECT OF FLIGHT-PATH NEAR AIRPORTS: THE CASE STUDY OF A NEW ROUTE AT NAPLES AIRPORT
M. Viscardi, University of Naples, Italy
A modeling activity has been related to the Naples Capodichino Airport where a new climbing proce-dure has been studied to limit the environmental effect on the population. rnDue to specific environmental target, a new take-off path has been explored for the airport with the aim to avoid the overflight of the city center for aircraft directed to north europe routes.rnThe new take-off path has been preliminary explored in terms of airworthiness by the competent institu-tions and once approved has been explored in terms of acoustic footprint and gaseous emissions for a direct comparison with actual situation.rnThe simulation demonstrated a redistribution of noise isophonics leading to a reduction in the popula-tion exposed to noise. rn
