Abstract:The noise generated by transportation systems is one of the most important causes of noise-induced annoyance, since exposure to high level noises for long periods of time can be detrimental to health. Amongst the different types of noise that originate from railroads, the squeal noise generated at curves, the impact noise generated at rail joints and the rolling noise stand out. To propose mitigation measures to this problem, noise generation must be understood as well as by which parameters it is influenced. … Show more
