TLDR
A road traffic noise prediction model for Indian conditions is developed using regression analysis which is based onCalixto model and it was observed that Calixto Model could be satisfactorily applied for Indian Conditions as they give accepted results with a good value.Abstract:
Noise is one of the environmental pollutant that is encountered in daily life. Noise pollution has become a major concern of communities living in the vicinity of major highway corridors. In view of the rapid development it is essential to study highway noise with respect to various causative factors. In the present paper a road traffic noise prediction model for Indian conditions is developed using regression analysis which is based on Calixto model. Data collected has been analyzed and compared with the values predicted by Calixto model. After comparison of results it was observed that Calixto Model could be satisfactorily applied for Indian conditions as they give accepted results with a good value.read more

Traffic noise prediction model of an Indian road: an increased scenario of vehicles and honking
TL;DR: Noise mitigation preventive measures are recommended to control traffic noise in the urban environment because increased noise level has serious impacts on human hearing capacity and overall health.

Modelling road traffic Noise under heterogeneous traffic conditions using the graph-theoretic approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed road traffic noise models using a graph theory approach involving the parameters related to road traffic subsystems, such as vehicular speed, traffic volume, carriageway width, number of heavy vehicles, and number of honking events.

Modelling of traffic noise in the vicinity of urban road intersections
TL;DR: In this article , an integrated Bayesian networks and Partial least squares structural equation modeling approach has been employed on 342-hour field measurement data collected from nineteen intersections in Kanpur, India, to develop a traffic noise model for intersections with minimal evidence of interrelationships among influential traffic noise factors.

TL;DR: The analysis showed no relationship between neither noise exposure nor response to noise and cardiovascular problems, and showed strong links among pseudoneurological complaints, annoyance and sleeping problems, thus pointing to the importance of including information on psychosomatic disorders and mild psychological problems in future studies looking at potential health effects of noise.

The statistical modeling of road traffic noise in an urban setting
TL;DR: Around the main roads inside the urban perimeter of Curitiba, simultaneous measurements were done regarding noise levels, vehicle flow and traffic composition and thus some mathematical models have been developed in order to estimate sound pressure levels.
