Title
Advancement in traffic noise modeling: The AAMA community noise model 4.0
Abstract
The University of Central Florida developed the AAMA Community Noise Model (CNM) which is a traffic simulation model that determines sound levels at receivers by modeling vehicles as discrete moving point sources. The vehicle energy is determined from acceleration, deceleration, idle and cruise reference energy mean emission level curves. Attenuation of energy from the vehicles for distance, ground adsorption and user input barriers is calculated. The model sums the energy at receivers on user defined time steps from all vehicles and then calculates the Leq noise level at the receivers.
