Reconstructing the Traffic State by Fusion of Heterogeneous Data

open access: yes, 2009
We present an advanced interpolation method for estimating smooth spatiotemporal profiles for local highway traffic variables such as flow, speed and density.

Impacts of Traffic Noise and Traffic Volume on Birds of Roadside Habitats

open access: yesEcology and Society, 2009
Roadside habitats are important for a range of taxa including plants, insects, mammals, and birds, particularly in developed countries in which large expanses of native vegetation have been cleared for agriculture or urban development.

Estimating the effect of semi-transparent low-height road traffic noise barriers with ultra weak variational formulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The ultra weak variational formulation (UWVF) approach is used to study the effect of semi-transparent road traffic noise barriers of limited height. This numerical method is extended to simulate sound propagation through a porous medium, based on the ...

ANALYSIS OF NOISE CHARACTERISTICS OF TRAFFIC FLOWS ON THE EXAMPLE OF KRASNODAR

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Studies
In this article, the authors consider the noise characteristics of traffic flows in urban conditions. The unevenness of traffic flows in time and space entails a change in noise effects on the environment.

Effects of a traffic noise background on judgements of aircraft noise [PDF]

open access: yes
A study was conducted in which subjects judged aircraft noises in the presence of road traffic background noise. Two different techniques for presenting the background noises were evaluated. For one technique, the background noise was continuous over the

Memory Effects and Scaling Properties of Traffic Flows

open access: yes, 2005
Traffic flows are studied in terms of their noise of sound, which is an easily accessible experimental quantity. The sound noise data is studied making use of scaling properties of wavelet transforms and Hurst exponents are extracted.

Traffic noise, noise annoyance and psychotropic medication use

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2018
Road-traffic noise can induce stress, which may contribute to mental health disorders. Mental health problems have not received much attention in noise research. People perceive noise differently, which may affect the extent to which noise contributes to poor mental health at the individual level.

Assessment of Heterogeneous Road Traffic Noise in Nagpur

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2018
The objective of the study is to assess the noise scenario and evaluate prediction model for heterogeneous traffic conditions. In the past few years, road traffic of Nagpur has increased significantly due to the rapid increase in the number of vehicles ...

Fluctuation-induced traffic congestion in heterogeneous networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In studies of complex heterogeneous networks, particularly of the Internet, significant attention was paid to analyzing network failures caused by hardware faults or overload, where the network reaction was modeled as rerouting of traffic away from ...
