The negative health effects of road traffic noise in the EU are analyzed over the period 2020–2035. For a baseline scenario, with autonomous traffic growth and fleet development, we find that there will be 31 million highly annoyed persons and 15 million highly sleep-disturbed persons in the EU in 2030. The corresponding EU health burden in 2030...

An analysis is presented of sound measurements performed near two detonations of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the North Sea, at distances ranging from 1.5 to 12 km. The charge masses of the detonations were 325 and 140 kg TNT equivalent. The objective of the measurements was to improve the accuracy of model predictions of the area where UXO...

Noise barriers along highways in the Netherlands are often tilted, at an angle of typically 10 degrees from the vertical. In this way, it is prevented that sound reflections arrive at distant receivers along curved sound paths through the refracting atmosphere. In this paper we compare results of two types of calculation methods for sound...

Passive-sonar-performance modelling requires the accurate estimation of the acoustic field for a broad range of frequencies in various environments. In this paper, we assess the suitability of a Gaussian Beam (Bellhop) and Parabolic Equation model (RAM), whereby we focus primarily on computational efficiency. For Parabolic Equation (PE) models...

The estimation of absolute road traffic noise levels without including the effects of meteorology is thought to be a major source of error in the estimation process commonly used in the United States. In response, the Transportation Research Board-sponsored NCHRP 25-52, Meteorological Effects on Roadway Noise, to collect highway noise data under...

Temporal variations of traffic noise levels originate from two effects: (1) traffic variations and (2) atmospheric variations. Traffic variations include variations of traffic volume and vehicle speed, and cause variations of the emission of sound at the source. Atmospheric variations cause variations of the propagation of sound from the source...

Propagation of sound waves in air can be considered as a special case of fluid dynamics. Consequently, the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for fluid flow can be used for simulating sound propagation. In this article application of the LBM to sound propagation is illustrated for various cases: free-field propagation, propagation over porous and...

Traffic noise mapping of cities requires large computer calculation times. This originates from the large number of point-to-point sound propagation calculations that must be performed. In this article it is demonstrated that noise mapping calculation times can be reduced considerably by the use of parallel computation on the Graphics Processing...

Annoyance and sleep disturbance by road and rail traffic noise in an urban area are investigated. Noise levels Lden and Lnight are determined with an engineering noise model that is optimized for the local situation, based on local noise measurements. The noise levels are combined with responses of 71 inhabitants to an annoyance survey to derive...

Traffic noise at an intersection controlled by traffic lights shows noise level variations due to the alternating green and red lights for the different trafficstreams. Noise peaks caused by automobiles pulling up or passing by at highspeed may be quite annoying for people living near the intersection. Detailedprediction of the variations is...

In urban areas, road traffrc noise is a dominant source of environmental noise and a major cause of noise annoyance and disturbed sleep. It has been hypothesized that respondents highly exposed to noise at multiple sides of their dwelling, may be expected to be worse off than respondents with the same exposure at the most exposed side, but also...

Noise mapping models are able to accurately predict directly exposed facade levels near busy roads on condition that sufäciently detailed trafäc data is available. At the non-directly exposed side ofthe building, howeve¡ common practice application of standard methods strongly underpredicts sound pressure levels, potentially leading to an...

Environmental noise annoyance due to transportation noise in the home environment has been widely studied, and exposure-response relationships have been established previously for the expected percentage of annoyed residents with the most exposed façade exposure level as a determinant. However, relatively little is known about the evaluation of...

Previous studies indicate that residents may benefit from a "quiet side" to their dwellings. The influence of the level of road traffic noise exposure at the least exposed side on road traffic noise annoyance was studied in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Road traffic noise exposure was assessed at the most and least exposed façade (Lden,most and...
