About this position
✨ PhD position vacancy on urban sound modelling at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in collaboration with NLR - Netherlands Aerospace Centre.
The project asks how future Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicles will sound in real cities and how they will be perceived by citizens. The research aims to develop a prediction model that can provide standard noise metrics and binaural sound rendering for immersive VR applications.
A key part of the work is validation through field measurements in a representative urban environment or at a controlled test facility such as NLR's DigiCity urban mock-up. Depending on the candidate's expertise, the project may also include a perceptual VR comparison study.
The outcome is intended to feed directly into VR platforms such as NLR's Virtual Community Noise Simulator (VCNS), supporting research on sound propagation, urban noise perception, and policy-relevant understanding of UAM noise in cities.
This is a PhD enrolment at Eindhoven University of Technology, with the position offered by NLR and carried out in collaboration with the TU/e Building Acoustics group.
