U-Net with Asymmetric Convolution Blocks for Road Traffic Noise Attenuation in Seismic Data

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Road traffic noise is a special kind of high amplitude noise in seismic or acoustic data acquisition around a road network. It is a mixture of several surface waves with different dispersion and harmonic waves.

Development of an open-source road traffic noise model for exposure assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper describes the development of a model for assessing TRAffic Noise EXposure (TRANEX) in an open-source geographic information system. Instead of using proprietary software we developed our own model for two main reasons: 1) so that the treatment

Statistical modelling for urban roads traffic noise levels

open access: yesScientific African, 2022
Traffic noise is one of the most significant types of vehicular emissions that result in physical and psychological health effects on humans and is caused by an increase in vehicular ownership and urbanisation. The central business district (CBD) of Ondo

A Microscopic Prediction Model for Traffic Noise in Adjacent Regions to Arterial Roads

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2023
Traffic noise in big cities impacts the people who live and work in high-rise buildings alongside arterial roads. To determine this impact magnitude, this paper proposes and validates a microscopic level method that locally predicts the total noise level

Urban background noise mapping: the multiple-reflection correction term [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mapping of road traffic noise in urban areas according to standardized engineering calculation methods systematically results in an underestimation of noise levels at areas shielded from direct exposure to noise, such as inner yards.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MEASURED TRAFFIC NOISE IN KLANG VALLEY, MALAYSIA AND EXISTING PREDICTION MODELS [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Heritage Journal, 2018
Many road traffic noise models are available around the world. However, these models cannot be simply generalized because local conditions affecting such noise (e.g., vehicle type and weather) vary from one locality to another. Two traffic noise models

Evaluation of Strategic Noise Maps Arising from Urban Traffic

open access: yesDoğal Afetler ve Çevre Dergisi, 2021
Environmental noise from traffic, industry and entertainment in cities has been one of the important environmental problems. In developed countries, noise from highways, airways and railways are the second major health problem. Traffic noise has negative

Burden of myocardial infarction attributable to road-traffic noise: A pilot study in Belgrade

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2014
The aim of this pilot study was to calculate the disability-adjusted life years (DALY) as a quantification of the burden of myocardial infarction (MI) attributable to road-traffic noise in Belgrade, Serbia. Exposure to road-traffic noise was estimated on

ANALYSIS OF MEASURED ROAD AND RAILWAY TRAFFIC NOISE LEVELS WITH NOISE MAPPING AND PROPOSED ACTIVITIES

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Technologies and Materials, 2022
Due to the fast process of urbanization and the increase in the development of transport infrastructure, there is an increase in noise levels caused by road and railway traffic in urban areas, which represents one of the most important today's problems ...
