Aeroacoustics research in Europe: The CEAS-ASC report on 2019 highlights

The Council of European Aerospace Societies (CEAS) Aeroacoustics Specialists Committee (ASC) supports and promotes the interests of the scientific and industrial aeroacoustics com-munity on a European scale and European aeronautics activities internationally. In this con-text, 'aeroacoustics' encompasses all aerospace acoustics and related areas. Each year the committee highlights some of the research and development projects in Europe. This paper is a report on highlights of aeroacoustics research in Europe in 2019, compiled from information provided to the ASC of the CEAS. In addition, during 2019, a number of research programmes involving aeroacoustics were funded by the European Commission. Some of the highlights from these programmes are also summarised in this article, as well as highlights from other programmes funded by national programmes or by industry. Furthermore, a con-cise summary of the CEAS-ASC annual scientific workshop: 'New Materials for Applications in Aeroacoustics' held in the University of Roma Tre, Italy in September 2019 is included in this report. Enquiries concerning all contributions should be addressed to the authors who are given at the end of each subsection. (C) 2020 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
