A Study of the Magnitude of Transportation Noise Generation and Potential Abatement. Volume IV. Motor Vehicle/Highway System Noise
Motor vehicles are a source of sound in every community and to the extent that sound is excessive, intrusive or unwanted, motor vehicles are a source of noise. Vehicle noise is a function of design/engineering characteristics and mode of operation. Noise reduction can be obtained by modifying the vehicle or its mode of operation. The relative ranking motor vehicles as noise sources are: Diesel truck, motorcycle, gasoline engine truck, bus, sports car and conventional passenger car. Highway noise is a function of traffic stream composition and flow, roadway design and the noise radiating characteristics of the highway configuration. A detailed analysis of motor vehicle noise generation and traffic noise prediction is presented along with a supporting analysis of noise propagation from highways. The costs of highway noise abatement are also discussed. (Author)
