Use of mathematical models and computer software for analysis of traffic noise

Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Noise measurement and evaluation of the existing noise situation is carried out in the vicinity of selected roads to demonstrate the need for the design of anti-noise measures or to assess the effectiveness of the measures. The selection and number of measuring points, time and intervals, the road noise measurement procedure and the measuring instruments used shall be used in accordance with the provisions of the STN ISO 1996-1 and STN ISO 1996-2 standards. During the measurement, it is also necessary to determine the microclimatic conditions of measurement, such as temperature and relative humidity, wind direction and speed, barometric pressure, duration and intensity of precipitation at the measuring point. The determinant for the definition of road traffic noise is the equivalent sound level A or the equivalent sound level in the third octave bands over a given time interval. In specific cases, it is possible to determine the equivalent sound pressure level from individual vehicle transit.</jats:p>

Urban Traffic Detectors Data Mining for Determination of Variations in Traffic Volumes

“…using neural networks) without the initial data classification by road categories. The cluster analysis of traffic volume datasets from all detectors would allow to identify datasets that show similarities [6]. If so-called "clusters" (similar datasets) were consequently assigned to the road network, the types of roads with similar traffic patterns could be identified.…”

Optimisation of Distribution Routes: A Case Study

“…The main principle is to determine the starting point and to subsequently find the most convenient connection (the shortest distance) to the next place. This point then serves for finding the closest nexus to a different point [15].…”

“…This task consists of getting from the starting point (point A1) and delivering goods to places A2, A3 … A(n) at one time (in random order) and then returning to the starting point (A1). The route should be as short as possible with a view to finding the quickest route starting and ending at point A1 [13][14][15].…”

Simulation of Autonomous Mobility of Connected Vehicles in the Context of Real Conditions – a Case Study

“…The usefulness of the model therefore lies primarily in simplifying or reducing the complexity of the modelled object in order to achieve a higher informative value of the obtained outputs. At the same time, however, comes the need to evaluate to what extent and what elements of the model can be simplified, so as not to affect or reduce the quality of the monitored outputs [11].…”
