Noise Measurements in Urban Environment
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration - Year 2009, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents some results obtained on diminishing the noise generated by transportation means in urban environment, with application to Timişoara City. Starting from the results of measurements, noise abatement methods were established concerning the noise in urban environment. After the implementation of these methods, new measurements were performed. A comparison study was developed based on the results of the measurements.
