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

Road traffic noise, air pollution and cardiovascular events in a Swedish cohort.
Environmental Research, 2020 Urbanization and increasing road traffic cause exposure to both noise and air pollution. While the levels of air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) have decreased in Sweden during the past decades, exposure to traffic noise has increased.

Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021 A traffic noise system involves several subsystems like road traffic subsystem, human subsystem, environment subsystem, traffic network subsystem, and urban prosperity subsystem. The study’s main aim was to develop road traffic noise models using a graph

Development and Testing of an Active Noise Control System for Urban Road Traffic Noise
Applied Sciences, 2023 As urbanization accelerates, the increasing number of vehicles and travel demands contribute to escalating road traffic noise pollution. Although passive noise control techniques such as noise barriers and green belts effectively mitigate noise, they ...

Spatio-temporal changes of road traffic noise pollution at ecoregional scale.
Environmental Pollution, 2021 Noise pollution is a pervasive factor that increasingly threatens natural resources and human health worldwide. In particular, large-scale changes in road networks have driven shifts in the acoustic environment of rural landscapes during the past few ...

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