Abstract

A new software called IBANA-Calc is developed for calculating the effect of sound insulation against the aircraft noise. The software is more accurate and convenient than the previous approaches that emphasize on tables and single number ratings of sound insulation. The program also includes a large database of new sound transmission loss data of building facade components and the aircraft spectra. The program can also produce audible simulations of several scenarios.
