Noise level in the vicinity of signalized roundabouts

The analysis, assessment and estimation of noise levels in the vicinity of intersections is a more complex problem than a similar analysis for roads and streets. This is due to the varied geometry of the intersections, differences in the loads of individual movements, participation of heavy vehicles and mass transport vehicles, as well as the various types of traffic management and traffic control. This article analyses the influence of intersection type and traffic characteristics on the noise levels in the vicinity of classic channelized intersections with signalization, roundabouts and signalized roundabouts. Based on the conducted measurements, it has been established that, with comparable traffic parameters and the same distance from the geometric centre of the intersection, the L_Aeq value for signalized roundabouts is 2.5–10.8 dB higher in comparison to classic channelized intersections with signalization and 3.3–6.7 dB higher in relations to the analysed roundabout. Additionally the differences between L_Aeq levels at individual entries at the same signalized roundabouts may reach the value of approximately 4.5 dB. Such situation is influenced by differences in the intersection geometry, diameter of the intersection’s central island, traffic flow type, traffic management at the entries and traffic volume, especially the amount and traffic movements of multiple axle heavy vehicles. These factors have been analysed in detail in relation to signalized roundabouts in this paper.

基于混和法的齿轮箱基座动力学特性全频域计算

统计能量法(SEA)在航空航天和船舶领域进行动力学环境预报方面有着广泛应用,适用于大型、复杂结构与高频率激励环境.但该方法在计算中低频振动噪声时,由于众多子系统动力特性差异,动力响应计算将产生很大误差,出现SEA失效问题.近年来出现的FE-SEA混合模型方法可有效解决这一问题,并能实现大型复杂结构的全频域一体化建模,在统一平台上进行低频、中频和高频计算及结果输出,简化建模和不同软件下模型转换,是非常适用于工程的一种方法.本研究探索采用具有上述功能的VA One软件进行舰艇基座全频域混和法动力学预报,这是国内外的首次探索,具有重要学术与工程价值.

神经网络分类器在舰船辐射噪声分类中得到了广泛的应用.针对神经网络分类器的设计困难,提出一种基于进化规划算法的设计方法.在该方法中,进化算法的适应度函数不是取为神经网络分类器对训练样本的识别率,而是对训练样本的可分性和聚合度同时考虑,这样能够在保证识别精度的前提下,使网络分类器具有良好的泛化能力,而且该方法不仅能够对待识别的样本进行离线学习,也能够在线学习.使用该分类器对舰船辐射噪声进行分类识别试验,结果表明该方法设计的分类器具有良好的性能.

Surface street traffic volume and single-family house price

This study investigates the relationship between surface street traffic volume and single-family house prices in a relatively small city in the US. Hedonic price models are estimated using data from 9670 transactions that occurred between January 1998 and March 2011. It is discovered that parcels fronting or adjacent to a high-traffic street sell, on average, at an 8.1% discount compared to similar parcels that are not so situated. Restricting the analysis to parcels on or adjacent to a high-traffic street, house price and traffic volume are found to be negatively related; a doubling of volume from any particular traffic count, ceteris paribus, reduces selling price by an average of 2.1%.     

Traffic noise abatement: How different pavements, vehicle speeds and traffic densities affect annoyance levels

In this paper, annoyance ratings from traffic noise recorded on cobblestones, dense asphalt, and open asphalt rubber pavements are assessed with regard to car speeds and traffic densities. It was found that cobblestones pavements are the most annoying; also while open asphalt rubber pavement imposes less annoyance than dense asphalt it is not significantly different. Higher car speeds always lead to greater annoyance, as does higher traffic densities. LAeq and LAmax correlate well with annoyance, but loudness is the best predictor. Roughness and sharpness exhibit inconsistent interactions.     

考虑相变过程岩体孔隙率对寒区隧道温度场时空规律影响研究

为研究寒区隧道围岩在持续低温作用或冻融循环作用过程中,考虑岩体相变过程中多相体各组分变化引起的岩石热学参数差异对围岩温度场时空变化规律的影响,利用已有岩体未冻水含量研究成果,进一步推导不同孔隙率下岩体的热学参数计算公式。基于多孔介质模型建立考虑相变过程的围岩温度场计算模型,分析考虑潜热时不同孔隙率下围岩冻结缘的空间形态变化规律,及相变过程对温度场的影响。研究结果表明： 1）饱和岩体孔隙率越高,对岩体整体热学参数影响越大; 2）低温持续作用围岩时,冻结缘向围岩深处移动并不断变宽,其宽度与其深度呈线性关系; 3）饱和围岩孔隙率对冻结缘移动速度影响较大,但对其宽度基本无影响; 4）由于相变潜热,岩体在冻融循环过程中围岩温度时程曲线出现不对称阶梯状形态,且其阶梯形状宽度与围岩孔隙率呈正相关; 5）冻融循环过程中,升温及降温过程中冻结缘临近岩体温度梯度存在差异引起的传热效率不同直接导致升温、降温时程曲线的不对称性特征出现; 6）沿硐室围岩径向向外,各处围岩体的温度时程函数与加载的温度函数存在着振幅衰减和相位滞后的现象,且岩体孔隙率越高该现象越明显。
