A simulation of traffic noise emissions at a roundabout based on a cellular automaton model
Acta Acustica, 2021 The calculation and evaluation of traffic noise is an important task in urban road design. Roundabouts are a common form of urban road intersection. The complexity of traffic operations makes the calculation of traffic noise near a roundabout challenging.

Road traffic noise and hypertension [PDF]
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2006 Background:It has been suggested that noise exposure increases the risk of hypertension. Road traffic is the dominant source of community noise exposure.Objective:To study the association between exposure to residential road traffic noise and hypertension in an urban municipality.Methods:The study population comprised randomly selected subjects aged 19–

Noise Abatement Approach Using Computer Simulation Model for Urban Indian Road of a Tier-2 City
Archives of Acoustics, 2021 Noise pollution is a major problem nowadays. In urban context, road traffic is the main source of noise pollution. People directly exposed to road traffic noise suffer from moderate to severe annoyance, headache, stress, feeling of exhaustion, and ...
