Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary questions investigated in this project were: What are the atmospheric conditions in the Phoenix valley that contribute to higher than normal sound levels? Are the conditions unique to the Phoenix valley? Can the atmospheric effects be anticipated? The main components of the project were: (1) a review of literature relevant to sound propagation, (2) detailed noise measurements in a Scottsdale neighborhood along the East Loop 101 Freeway, (3) computer modeling of sound propagation under various measured and inferred atmospheric conditions, (4) noise measurements before and after installation of an asphalt rubber friction course (ARFC) on the Pima Freeway by the ADOT Quiet Pavement Pilot Program, and (5) a pilot study investigating parametric models of tire/pavement noise. Some key conclusions are: nighttime thermal inversion conditions that are common in the Phoenix valley from October through March cause sound level increases of 5 to 8 dB at distances greater than 1/4 mile from freeways, nighttime down-slope drainage flows off the mountain ranges surrounding the Phoenix valley cause localized focusing and de-focusing of sound levels, sound level variations under inversion conditions appear to be greatest at locations that are upwind relative to the down-slope flows, the highest sound levels during the October to March period will usually occur right around sunrise when high traffic volumes coincide with strong inversion conditions, and installation of the ARFC reduces sound levels by 8 to 10 dBA both close to the roadway and at distances of 1/4 mile and greater. A final tentative conclusion is that, based on the computer modeling, there may be a rapid onset of refraction effects between about 200 and 300 m (650 to 1000 ft) from Phoenix valley roadways,

Book Synopsis Effect of Pavement Texture on Tire-road Noise by : David Frederick Noble
Download or read book Effect of Pavement Texture on Tire-road Noise written by David Frederick Noble and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of the potentially conflicting considerations for cost, durability, environment and safety the design engineer must have information on each such subject on which to base his decisions. The great variety of pavement textures for affecting the noise levels generated by traffic on the highway, made the need for information on the effect of pavement texture on tire road noise obvious. Noise measurements were made at 19 sites, including both bituminous (I-2, S-5, S-8 surface treatment) and portland cement concrete (aggregate exposed and grooved) pavements that had a wide variety of textures. A 1971 Plymouth 4-door sedan was used as the test vehicle. Both rib treads and snow treads were used in the tests. The data were analyzed in the linear (dB) and A-weighted (dBA) modes. Frequency analyses were made on ten recordings that were representative of most of the data. It was determined that pavement parameters such as density, type of aggregate, and the flat-mosaic aspect had very little effect on the intensity of the noise generated. The parameter that had the greatest effect was the degree of protuberance. From the analyses of the frequency content of the noise it was determined that the 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) transverse grooved and the dimpled textures generated relatively pure tones in the high frequency range most easily sensed by humans. Recommendations are made concerning the use of the various pavement surfaces tested.

Book Synopsis Technology for a Quieter America by : National Academy of Engineering
Download or read book Technology for a Quieter America written by National Academy of Engineering and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exposure to noise at home, at work, while traveling, and during leisure activities is a fact of life for all Americans. At times noise can be loud enough to damage hearing, and at lower levels it can disrupt normal living, affect sleep patterns, affect our ability to concentrate at work, interfere with outdoor recreational activities, and, in some cases, interfere with communications and even cause accidents. Clearly, exposure to excessive noise can affect our quality of life. As the population of the United States and, indeed, the world increases and developing countries become more industrialized, problems of noise are likely to become more pervasive and lower the quality of life for everyone. Efforts to manage noise exposures, to design quieter buildings, products, equipment, and transportation vehicles, and to provide a regulatory environment that facilitates adequate, cost-effective, sustainable noise controls require our immediate attention. Technology for a Quieter America looks at the most commonly identified sources of noise, how they are characterized, and efforts that have been made to reduce noise emissions and experiences. The book also reviews the standards and regulations that govern noise levels and the federal, state, and local agencies that regulate noise for the benefit, safety, and wellness of society at large. In addition, it presents the cost-benefit trade-offs between efforts to mitigate noise and the improvements they achieve, information sources available to the public on the dimensions of noise problems and their mitigation, and the need to educate professionals who can deal with these issues. Noise emissions are an issue in industry, in communities, in buildings, and during leisure activities. As such, Technology for a Quieter America will appeal to a wide range of stakeholders: the engineering community; the public; government at the federal, state, and local levels; private industry; labor unions; and nonprofit organizations. Implementation of the recommendations in Technology for a Quieter America will result in reduction of the noise levels to which Americans are exposed and will improve the ability of American industry to compete in world markets paying increasing attention to the noise emissions of products.

Book Synopsis Vehicle/Tire/Road Dynamics by : Tan Li
Download or read book Vehicle/Tire/Road Dynamics written by Tan Li and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-11-24 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle/Tire/Road Dynamics: Handling, Ride, and NVH presents the connection between NVH and conventional vehicle dynamics where both tire and road play a key role. In this book, there is a chapter for handling dynamics that provides an introduction to ride dynamics and a chapter for ride dynamics that provides an introduction to NVH, presenting better coherence and synergy between these major areas of vehicle/tire dynamics. Accompanying the fundamental theories, case studies are given to facilitate comprehension. In addition to the experimental implementations, the state-of-the-art approaches to simulating vehicle/tire dynamics are presented from the viewpoint of both industry and academia. This new book bridges the gap for experts in tire or pavement NVH (also tire-pavement interaction noise) and those who are experts in vehicle dynamics. Conventional vehicle dynamics (e.g., handling/braking/cornering) is focused on low-frequency performance while NVH (noise/vibration/harshness) is focused on high-frequency performance. There is also another area called "ride" (comfort/stability) which focuses on mid-frequency. Presents a closed loop system for vehicle dynamics, covering handling, riden and NVH. Provides insights into how intelligent tires will enhance autonomous vehicle control and optimize multiple performances, especially for electric vehicles. Demonstrates how pavement characteristics could greatly influence vehicle handling/ride/NVH and improve/balance these performances.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noise pollution is another environmental pollutant to be formally recognized as an actual threat to human health and the quality of life. The growth in noise pollution is unsustainable because it involves direct and cumulative adverse health effects. Pavement characteristics are one of the important factors affecting noise generation and propagation. The selection of an appropriate pavement mixture or texture with the proper maintenance efforts is the best method to control the main cause of pavement noise. Therefore, the major objective of this research study was to develop a methodology to evaluate tire-pavement noise. Other objectives were investigating the effect of the pavement surface characteristics on the generation and propagation of the noise of asphalt concrete (AC) and portland cement concrete (PCC) at varying traffic speeds, and finally the development of a statistical model for prediction tire-pavement noise at varying traffic speeds. Field noise measurements were performed using a noise trailer developed in this study and attached to the parent vehicle. Overall, PCC sections with higher skid resistance and lower average texture depth produced the highest noise levels compared with the conventional AC sections; PCC type had an average difference of about 1 dB(A) compared with the AC pavement. The presence of surface distress led to increasing the tire-pavement noise level by 7 dB(A). There were increments of about 1 dB(A) and 7 dB(A) to change vehicle speed from 20 to 40 km/h and from 40 to 60 km/h, respectively. Regarding the measurement period effect on the tire-pavement noise level, tire-pavement noise had an increment of about 7 dB(A) during daytime compared with night.
