Download or read book Effects of Pavement Type on Traffic Noise Levels written by Lloyd Allen Herman and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic noise mitigation strategies are developed by considering the source, path, and receiver of the noise. Within the United States, strategies involving the path of traffic noise have dominated noise abatement efforts on Federal and State levels. As a result, many miles of barriers have been constructed to shield affected receivers from traffic noise. Strategies aimed at reducing the source of traffic noise are appealing in light of the potential for reducing these abatement costs. Vehicle noise has been divided into six noise-producing components: engine, fan, intake, exhaust, drive train, and tires. Due to market forces, vehicle manufacturers have been motivated in recent years to reduce the noise generated by these components. As progress has been made by manufacturers to reduce the noise emitted by the various sub-sources within motor vehicles, tire/road noise has emerged as the dominant component of traffic noise for speeds greater than 35-40 mph. Recent European studies have concluded that tire/road noise levels vary substantially according to pavement type [Herman and Bowlby 1993].

Download or read book Influence of Pavement on Traffic Noise written by Elliot B. Dick and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research project performed statistical pass-by (SPB) measurements of tire/pavement noise influence on overall traffic noise levels. The pavement specimens included in the project were a conventional grind surface, an innovative grind surface, a transverse tine surface, and a burlap drag surface, all located on I-94 to the northwest of Minneapolis. Due to the high volume of traffic on the interstate highway, field measurements were not feasible. An alternative method was adopted of recording video and high-quality audio of all the traffic over several hours, along with a calibration reference level, and analyzing the recorded traffic in the office. This allowed selection of several hundred pass-by events meeting data quality requirements out of the several thousand vehicles present in the recordings. The results showed the innovative grind was clearly the quietest pavement with four-wheeled passenger cars. The results also showed the innovative grind was quieter than most other pavement surfaces, but was inconclusive against the conventional grind with dual-axle and multi-axle heavy vehicles due to insufficient data. On-board sound intensity measurements showed a dBA difference of 4.7 to 5 between the innovative grind and the pre-existing surface texture.
Download or read book Experimental investigation of relevant road surface descriptors for tire road noise measurements on low absorbing road surfaces written by Pinay, Julien and published by KIT Scientific Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-16 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ihrer Arbeit in der Originalsprache: This work aims at identifying relevant road surface characteristics to mitigate tire-road noise of free-rolling tires using a systematic approach. As using open porous roads is already known as an efficient measure to reduce tire rolling noise, this study will focus on compact road surfaces which have a low acoustic absorption. Measurements on standardized ISO 10844 test tracks and on public roads are used to study the norm's representativity and its completeness.

This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 795 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is necessary to understand the extent of pollution in the environment in terms of the air, water, and soil in order for both humans and animals to live healthier lives. Poor waste treatment or pollution monitoring can lead to massive environmental issues, such as diminishing valuable resources, and cause a significant negative impact on society. Solutions, such as reuse of waste and sustainable waste management, must be explored to prevent these adverse effects. The Handbook of Research on Resource Management for Pollution and Waste Treatment is a collection of innovative research that examines waste and pollution treatment methods that can be adopted at local and international levels and examines appropriate resource management strategies for environmentally related issues. Featuring coverage on a wide range of topics such as soil washing, bioremediation, and runoff handling, this book is ideally designed for environmentalists, engineers, waste management professionals, natural resource regulators, environmental policymakers, scientists, academicians, researchers, and students seeking current research on viable resource management methods for the regeneration of their immediate environment.
