In this study, the sensitivity of annoyance was investigated by the subjective jury test for the variations of the frequency components along with various sound pressure levels of sixteen environmental noise sources. Annoyance was, also, evaluated for the road traffic noises. Sound pressure levels were $54{\sim}84\;dB$ which individually divided frequency components with eight bands of equally three bark bands. The results show that vehicle traffic noise is recognized as the most serious environment noise source. The sensitivity of human perception of annoyance in frequency bands is quite different from A-weighting curve. The annoyance found out to be more sensitive in high frequency region and reached its maximum in 3.4 kHz.

This study is an attempt to understand the floor-specific characteristics of facade road traffic noise in apartment buildings. For this purpose, it sampled a total of seven roadside apartment building complexes: three with no soundproof bar barrier installed at roadside, one with a forest buffer zone, one with a sound-absorbing hill, and two with soundproof barriers. The measured noise level was highest on the 5th floor of apartment buildings with no soundproof barrier, and the upper stories from the 5th floor showed lower-noise measurements in order. For apartment buildings with soundproof barriers, however, the noise level was lower on the 10th floor than the 5th floor. Two apartment building groups--one with a sound-absorbing hill and the other with no soundproof barrier--showed similar measurement results in the floor-specific characteristics of facade road traffic noise. This suggests that such installations have little sound insulation effect. In the apartment building complex with a forest buffer zone around it, a slight sound insulation effect was measured on the lower floors of the buildings.

This study describes the proposed methods for constructing the residential section which satisfies quiet environment and scenery at the same time. For the purpose of achieving this objective, the influences of house arrangement, house skyline change, soundproofing facility installation, etc. on traffic noise environment and scenery are compared using document investigation and computational results.

When houses or buildings are adjacent to roads, with no effective prevention of road traffic noise, neighbors are exposed to it. It is important to understand the properties of sound propagation before taking a countermeasure against road traffic noise. It is easy to estimate the properties of sound propagation without obstacles, but very difficult and complex to estimate them with ones. The purpose of this study is to present a useful tool that can estimate the properties of sound propagation. In the beginning of this study, we investigated the attenuation of road traffic noise with two pillar buildings, and presented practical approximate calculation method, and verified that through scale model. The outcomes from this study are as follows : (1) Over second reflection sound waves can be ignored. (2) Diffraction sound waves that happen when reflection sound and first diffraction wave are projected at the wedge of other building can be ignored.

발생된 도로교통소음 예측을 위한 새로운 방법을 제시하고자 하며, 본 연구에서 도시지역 도로 한 Block내에서는 도로교통 특성이 유사하므로 한 Block을 한 Box로 간주하였다. 이 예측방법은 한 Block 내에서 발생한 다양한 도로교통소음을 예측할 수 있다. 본 Model의 검증은 도로에서 실측한 소음레벨 및 교통특성을 활용하여 실시하였으며, 실측된 소음레벨과 예측된 소음레벨의 상관성을 살펴본 결과 높은 상판관계를 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper describes a experimental study determining the effects of the type and loudness of introducing sounds on the amenity and the masking degree of background noise. 132 relative test sounds with 11 types of introducing sounds and 3 steps of road traffic noise were presented to 29 subjects through headphone in the laboratory experiment. Seven scale of polar adjective such as 'Strong Weak', 'Pleasant Unpleasant', 'Clear Unclear', 'Suitable Unsuitable', 'Comfortable-Discomfortable' was employed for the evaluation of amenity. And Seven scale of mono polar adjective such as 'Very-Not at all' was employed for the evaluation of masking degree against road traffic noise. The results are as follows; Green music was evaluated the highest amenity among test sounds and murmurs of a stream, signal music, song of a bird, crying of insect was showed the amenity rank of order. The softer and weaker introducing sound was evaluated more suitable and comfortable under the road traffic noise. So adequate level of introducing sounds was considered for the desirable urban soundscape. Also the louder sounds compared to background noises had greater masking effects. But similar levels of introducing sounds were recommended considering both good amenity and masking effects.

대부분의 도로교통소음 예측 방법에서는 음파가 자유로이 전과된다고 가정하였다. 그러나 도시가노변의 건물들은 음파를 반재시켜 도로내에 음에너지를 증가시키고 있다 따라서 본 연구는 반사조건을 고려한 도로교통소음 예측 방법을 찾고자 한다. 이 방법은 예측식에 반재효과를 고려하여 $L_{10},\;L_{50},\;L_{90}$ 및 $L_{eq}$ 등의 소음레벨을 구하는 것이다. 제시된 예측 방법의 적합성을 파악하기 위해 측정조사된 교통 등의 특성을 예측식에 잠용하여 예측된 소음레벨과 실측된 소음레벨을 비교분석하였다. 전반적으로 예측 소음레벨과 실측 소음레벨이 일치하였다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 제시하고 있는 반사조건을 고려한 예측 방법이 도시가노에서 도로교통소음 예측에 적합한 것으로 사료된다.

Valid evaluation of community reaction to road-traffic noise exposure is important for the policy making and quality of life. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between community reaction and nighttime road-traffic noise. The study measured nighttime roadside noise caused by high traffic which is greater than LAeq(22:00-07:00) 65dB(A) and lower than 65dB(A) at Chonju city, from March to April, 2003. Three hundred sixty seven subjects, aged from 20 to 65, were selected from those who are residing close to the major roads. They were asked to answer the questions regarding noise source, stress(PWI-SF), annoyance, disturbance of specific activity, disturbance of sleep, somatic symptom, and four suggested confounding factors. The relationship between annoyance, somatic symptom and noise exposure was not significant. Adjusted odds ratio(95% C.I.) for disturbance of communication　 and disturbance of attention and rest　 were 1.59(1.03-2.71), 1.64(1.06-2.81), respectively. On the other hand sleep disturbance　 was indicated as 1.34(0.77-2.32). The results suggested that federal policy-making about road-traffic noise should consider community reaction evaluated by various perspective including annoyance, disturbance of specific activity, disturbance of sleep, and confounding factors.

Recently, the number of traffic accidents on trunk roads tends to decrease due to the performance improvement of passenger vehicles. In the commuter rush hour of morning and evening, vehicles via residential road increases without going along trunk roads. Therefore, there are many traffic accidents of pedestrians (or bicycles) and vehicles on residential roads. In order to safeguard residents against traffic accidents, traffic calming devices (TCD), such as chicane, speed hump, and school zone, etc. have been introduced. Investigating these effects repeatedly is not easy since many times and efforts are required, such as observed at the place actually. In this paper, the effects of TCDs in residential areas, such as noise, speed, and emission of a vehicle, using Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) are examined. As a result, it is found that it is possible to reduce the speed of the vehicle by TCD, and the level of noise at the location behind TCD becomes higher than the level of noise at the location of TCD implemented.

현재 널리 사용되고 있는 도로교통소음 예측프로그램들은 국외 예측모형을 바탕으로 제작된 것이 대부분이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내 도로교통환경에 적합한지를 알아보기 위해 국외 예측모형에 대한 검증을 수행하였다. 또한, 예측모형마다 도로교통소음 발생에 대한 영향요인이 다르기 때문에 주요 요인들에 대한 분석 및 고찰을 선행하였다. 본 연구에서는 도로교통소음 예측 시 사용되고 있는 영향인자와 기존 예측모형에 대하여 고찰하고, 교통환경 및 도로기하구조를 고려하여 주행차량의 발생 소음에 영향을 미치는 영향인자와의 관계를 다중회귀분석을 통한 예측모형으로 도출하였다. 나아가 기존의 도로교통소음 예측모형(국립환경과학원(NIER), 독일의 RLS-90)과 도출된 도로교통소음 예측모형의 실측값을 적용하여 비교 검증 결과, 오차의 절대값 합은 NIER, RLS-90, 모형값 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 모형식이 향후 도로교통소음 예측 모델링에 대한 연구의 참고자료로 활용할 수 있는 기틀을 제공하고자 한다.
