Most apartment houses were sited in road because it was convenient for transportation. One of the most noise is traffic noise at apartment house. The tested site was closely located in rail road and installed soundproofing wall. This study is measured indoor and outdoor noise distribution in apartment house for each story. It was similar noise distribution at indoor test but it was different noise distribution at outdoor test for each story. It was measured higher noise level at the upper stories than 5th story in outdoor noise distribution.

The acceleration noise is valuable index to monitor traffic stability. However, the previous study was performed for the acceleration noise of individual vehicle. The consideration of the acceleration noise for vehicle in the network has not been studied yet. This paper proposes a new macroscopic traffic flow monitoring method based on applying network acceleration noise.

Passengers in automobile or train are exposed to a worse noise environment when they are in the tunnel than in the open field. This is due to a relatively higher space density of sound energy by multiple reflection phenomenon of noise generated by operation of transportation vehicles from tunnel wall compared to open field. In this study, noise characteristics of subway train running through a tunnel were investigated at straight/curved track and tunnel type(semi circular/box). Also the noise measured simultaneously at inner and outer sides of train running through a tunnel, so that the coherence of the various noise sources of subway train to inner noise was evaluated.

It is widely recognized that train Is one of the most efficient and convenient ways for passenger and freight transportation. However, the environmental noise problem is occurred with the construction and service of train. The noise problems caused by train prevent people from living in a silent environment. Furthermore, this problem is related with the right to preserve one's environment. The objectives of this research are train noise measurement and analysis which might be a base-study for prediction of train noise. This paper mainly deals with the noise of the 'Semaul' train. The train noise shows distinct characteristics according to the variation of height and distance. Furthermore, the database and its interface program are developed for systematic analysis and future research.

Recently, many new constructuion and large scale modification of railway are performed for cost down of goods delivery charge and effective transportation in various aspect. Although railway traffic is environmentally frendly in many part but weak in noise and vibration problem. For the reduction and efficient management of railway noise, first of all prediction of railway noise is necessarily requisted. In domestic and abroad many studies for prediction of railway nearby noise are done. In this study simple modelling technique is investigated for railway noise prediction when railway passes above elevated concrete bridge as well as ground. Predicted results are compared with measured results and it is known that suggested modelling technique can be used for more precise prediction of railway nearby noise.

KHST project plans to design and to build an high speed train. There are noise requirements in passenger room for the standing and running train, which should be reached. Noise prognosises are calculated for the standing and running TM5(Motorized car) and TT4(Trailer car) train (v=300km/h) to find out critical areas in or around the train. On those areas, actions of noise reduction are proposed to reach the requirements. Finally noise prognosises are calculated for the higher velocity of v=350km/h.

Nowadays, high speed train has settled down as a fast and convenient environment-friendly transportation and it's need is gradually increasing. However increased train speed leads to increased aerodynamic noise, which causes critically affects comfortability of passengers. Especially, the pantograph of high speed train is protruded out of train body, which is the main factor for increased aerodynamic noise. In this research, to reduce aerodynamic noise pantograph, panhead's shape changed to aerodynamical shape. aerodynamic noise of pantograph is predicted by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) and FW-H (Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings) equation. Also, the sound pressure level of aerodynamic noise of base and modified models are predicted. And the reduction effects of the sound pressure level is analyzed.

In Korea, the high-speed train is one of the most important mass transportation. Due to its fast speed, the interior noise level is high and it is one of major reason for passenger complaints. In this study, the response of passengers to interior noise was evaluated using sound quality parameters. The effects of various parameters, such as train types, travel speed, rail road, on the calculated sound quality were investigated. The characteristics of interior noise were identified. The obtained results were compared to auditory experimental data. For precise comparison of noises of similar loudness but with different characteristics, paired comparison method was used. From the comparison, important parameters that have influence on the annoyance and loudness of the noise were determined.

In Korea, large.scale housing complexes and residential areas began to appear in urban regions through urban plan projects from the 1970s. In addition, with the increase in the percentage of apartments in developed areas, road traffic noise at roadside apartments was raised as a new problem. Furthermore, since the late 1980s, apartments, which had been no taller than 15 stories, have grown higher to 20-30 stories and recently 40.story or higher apartments are being constructed, and as a result, residences are growing denser and road traffic noise is increasing in urban areas. Thus, the present study made a noise map using variables 'traffic volume' and 'mean spot speed' among factors influencing roadside apartments, and examined the noise reduction efficiency of the variables. According to the results, traffic volume and speed limit were found to have an effect on a limited space, and the median bus lane system was found to have a slight effect on the roadside.
