Samuele Graziani is a PhD student in Aerospace Engineering with a strong focus on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) applied to the study of sonic boom phenomena. Their research centres on the generation and propagation of sonic booms, aiming to understand and mitigate their impact through advanced simulation techniques and experimental validation. Samuele Graziani combines numerical methods to explore the effects of off-design conditions on boom signatures and aircraft performance. A significant part of their work is dedicated to evaluating loudness metrics, seeking to improve current standards for assessing the human perception of sonic booms. By integrating CFD simulations with experimental data, Samuele Graziani contributes to the development of quieter supersonic flight technologies. His work not only advances theoretical understanding but also supports practical applications in next-generation aerospace vehicle design
