Railway Noise Model

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1999
The Railway Noise Model (RWNM) was developed at the University of Central Florida and predicts sound levels at receivers near railway operations for analyses used in environmental documents. The RWNM is a simulation model, and trains are modeled as moving point sources of sound. The user can create model objects, tracks, barriers, and receivers, using

The noise factor in railway locomotives

Applied Ergonomics, 1982
This article concerns the problem of acoustic work conditions on railway locomotives. The objective results of sonometric surveys in locomotive cabins are compared with subject data received from locomotive crews obtained by means of a specific questionnaire 'The Subjective Estimation of Noise'. The analysis touched 9 type of locomotives; steam, diesel

Multiresolution analysis of environmental noise signals: an application to railway noise

Proceedings of the 21st IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37510), 2004
The most part of acoustic signals associated to real world phenomena are non-stationary. A particularly important example is represented by signals associated to train transits, whose noise environmental impact is evaluated by considering the features associated to each of them.

Railway noise propagation

Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1977
The propagation of railway noise is characterized by the typical arrangement of noise sources on a moving train. The rates of sound attenuation with distance are determined for peak levels and for the equivalent steady sound levels in the cases of omnidirectional, and directional sources.
