Avaliação do impacto causado por ruídos aeronáuticos em áreas do entorno do aeroporto de Teresina – PI

Abstract

The mobility of people, goods, and raw materials in the world was made possible by developments and innovations that happened in the means of transportation, like in the aerial, for example. We live in an era of increasing globalization, and, in this sense, the demand for a fast connection has never been higher. Thus, the effectiveness of the means of transport is increasingly related to the development of cities, in particular, when air transport is concerned. This is the fastest means of mass displacement, as it goes through great distances in reduced time, when compared to other means of transportation, such as the maritime, for example. However, in spite of all the advantages provided by the advancement of aviation, the increasing number of aeronautical movements brings with it a few negative aspects. This paper aims to evaluate one of these externalities: airport noise. In this respect, it is subsequent to constant exposure to loud noises, various health problems, such as cognitive and sleep disorders, as well as low productivity and stress. Therefore, studies that assess the impact of these noises are increasingly demanded. Still in this regard, this paper assesses the negative impact of airport noise in the surroundings of the Senador Petrônio Portella Airport (SBTE) in Teresina. Furthermore, airport noise curves were simulated according to the DNL metric, through the INM 7.0d software used by Brazilian legislation. With the noise curves, maps will be drawn up with the aim to identify the areas affected by the noise emitted by the operation of the aircrafts. In short, it can be concluded that there are areas affected by noise that meet the limits established by Brazilian legislation, thus, it is essential to implement adjustments in order to correctly frame the noise zoning correlated with the urban zoning of the region.
