32nd AIAA/CEAS Aeroacoustics Conference

Register Now Manage Submissions  Learn More  Download Flyer

The AIAA/CEAS Aeroacoustics Conference continues to be the leading international platform for the exchange of knowledge in the field of aeroacoustics. It provides researchers and engineers from academia, industry, and government a unique opportunity to share recent findings and explore future research directions. Contributions are invited on all aspects of noise generation, propagation, and control for aerospace vehicles, novel airborne systems as well as other industrial applications such as wind energy.

The technical program will feature theoretical, experimental, and numerical studies presenting original research or innovative approaches, with a particular focus on the rapidly evolving landscape of air transportation, considering their impact on structures and communities. This includes significant activity in Urban Air Mobility and Unmanned Air Systems, where the development of quieter, more sustainable aerial vehicles is driving intense aeroacoustic research. Contributions related to low-carbon aircraft technologies and novel flight concepts are especially encouraged. Comprehensive reviews and topical surveys will also be considered.

While the conference topics are outlined below, submissions on related subjects — including cross-sector applications of noise reduction technologies and non-aerospace research with potential aerospace impact — are welcome.

Questions about abstracts should be referred to:

The conference is organized by the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics. For updates and announcements including the venue and booking information please visit www.aeroacoustics2026.eu.
