This paper gives the way of analyzing internal noise of rolling stocks which is urgently required by civilians. Triangular beam method among ray tracing techniques is utilized to compute noise distribution of rolling stocks. Noise source and transmisstion loss of several sections from experimental work are included in this calculation. Ray tracing technique is found useful to compute big structures like rolling stocks.

This paper deals with the noise source localization of the Korean High Speed Train (KTX) at the speed of 300 km/h. Using Microfonarray system and beamforming technology typical pass-by noise sources and their frequency characteristics are investigated. It is primarily aimed at investigating the location and characteristics of the high speed train emission. The results from the microphone array tests are also analyzed in relation to the remarks from analytic studies and experimental investigations on the high speed train that have been done with the intention of understanding the interior noise mechanism. The acoustical image shows the low frequency noise sources mainly at the position of the under part of the train at high speeds and the related source mechanism are discussed.

In this paper, To estimate the train exterior noise and environment noise which are occur when High-Speed EMU is driving with the speed of 370km/h, Estimated sound source about noise that is appeared during operation based upon noise SPL values. Based on aero-dynamic noise source and wheel-rail noise source, these were already used to the existed research, we have estimated each sound power about measured noise, and computed the sound source to apply on the High-Speed EMU, and also calculated the sound power in case of the maximum operation speed of 370km/h.

A blasting noise generated by blasting work, which is a kind of shock-noise, influences the human body. A civil appeal due to blasting noise causes work discontinuance and downsizing of a blasting scale. Most of soundproof facilities for reducing a blasting noise is installed at each working spot by itself and the degree of a noise reduction is very low. The aim of this study is to recommend a technology on noise reduction considering the method and material of soundproof facilities. As the first study step to acquire basic data, investigations on the installation time, installation method, and material of the soundproof facilities have been done at about 20 tunnel work spots such as railroad tunnel, road tunnel, tunnel for electric power.

As the railway noise guideline of the Ministry of Environment after 2017 is strictly enforced, the noise level at stationary condition of urban railway is demanding the reduction about 2 dB(A). And the noise level at running condition is reduced by 6 dB(A) at 80 km/h. Therefore, the devices that causes noise shall arrange for the improvement plan of noise reduction for each device. In this paper, we carried out a technical review of the driving gear used to drive the vehicle from a variety of noise-induced equipment of a urban railway. Analyze the causes of the current noise levels and noise cause about the driving gear used in current urban railway and this study analyzes the noise level and noise cause the drive gear being used in the current urban railway. Finally, in this paper proposes a scheme for reducing the noise that can be designed to reduce the noise with considering the noise cause analysis.

In this study we propose noise energy harvesting for green infrastructure development. In this regard, infrastructures such as railroad, subway, and road are taken into consideration as sources of noise which provides energy through certain wave forms. As the need of recycling noise energy became reasonable due to the increase of infrastructure usage, the capacity and property of our noise energy generating device, which uses electromagnetic induction for electricity generation, are analysed in this paper. Consequently, the outcomes of this experiment show the fact that maximum electricity is generated from the device at a specific point of noise frequency, and the relation between air pressure caused by noise and the electricity generated by the device is in a specific proportional form either linear or non-linear. The major points of developing noise energy generating device in order to apply it into social infrastructure are discussed in this paper as well.

Nowadays rolling stock has become a fast and convenient transportation and increased in its demands. But the improvement of speed has result in increase of aerodynamic noise and therefore residential districts near by the railroad are now constantly suffering from the racket. Thus the study regarding rolling stock's environmental noise measurement and appraisal has become important. The case of environmental noise, there are no changes of tone so prediction can be made by reducing areas around the railway. This is part of the study which estimates the noise around the railway using scaled model, and the source of the noise has been researched on. The scaled model of rolling stock will have to be able to make high frequency and it needs to be spread out in a short amount of time. When popping a balloon or firing a gun fits its condition and this study analyzed the characteristics of these two different noises. Measurement was held on a wide vacant lot and the reflection effect of the ground is additionally examined. It is judged to be used in the future when predicting the environmental noise of railway vehicles.

Sound absorbing materials are applied to the exposed surfaces of curvet subway tunnel for the reduction of curving noise level. Before the treatment, acoustical engineering simulation is performed to predict the noise level reduction for different kinds and amounts of absorbing material. The principle of geometrical acoustics is utilized to perform the simulation efficiently and accurately. The noise bevels of the inside and outside of running car body are measured to find the noise level reduction. The average noise level reduction of 8 dB has been attained. It has been shown that the simulated results are comparable to the measured ones.
