Cabin Interior and Electronics
Coming Soon: Quieter Cabins?
Researchers at NC State and MIT have devised a system that could make aircraft cabins as quiet as your living room.
A team of researchers at NC State University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a process they say will greatly assist in the further soundproofing of aircraft cabins.

For designers of both airliners and private jets, hushing cabin noise is a key element in the quest to make the ride more comfortable for passengers. While engineers have made strides in this area over the past several decades, a paper published in the journal Applied Physics Letters notes that a team of researchers at NC State University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a solution they say will greatly assist in the further soundproofing of aircraft cabins.
