| Abstract | The goal of this work is to propose a new strategy for the attenuation of the traffic noise, which constitutes one of the main sources of acoustic pollution in urban and suburban areas. This strategy is based on the measurement of the noise radiated by each individual vehicle using an electro-acoustic system, composed of two microphones for the acquisition of the engine and of the rolling noise. These microphones have been situated inside the engine hood and close to the right back tire respectively. The signals have been recorded for diesel and petrol engines and through typical urban and suburban courses with different persons. Using this procedure, we aim to characterise the drivers responsible of the highest noise levels producing maximum annoyance. The near-field measurements have been then extrapolated to far field positions using an analytical filter that takes into account absorbing properties of the propagation floor. For the internal signal it has been necessary to characterise the acoustic properties of the engine hood experimentally using an array of microphones surrounding the vehicle. The propagated noise is calculated considering the absorption due to the geometrical divergence, the absorption by the air, and the effect of the propagating surface. The signals extrapolated to the receiver position could be compared with the current normative to propose recommendations concerning noise control actions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
