Technical Seminar on Novel Technology for Quantification of Tyre/Road Noise for Urban Noise Management

15-08-2024 Download

Dear Members,

The HKIOA is organizing a technical seminar on Novel Technology for Quantification of Tyre/Road Noise for Urban Noise Management jointly organized with the Department of Mechanical Engineering, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. A pioneering technology has been developed to enhance the quantification capability of the widely-used close-proximity (CPX) technology for measuring tyre/road noise on urban roads. This advancement enables real-time measurement of the sound power level of tyre/road noise, providing an absolute engineering metric for tyre/road noise sources. The measurement results obtained from this technology are less susceptible to variations in background acoustic quality, which are commonly encountered when using the de-facto measurement standard ISO/CD 11819-2 (2017). During the seminar, the development of this technology will be outlined, and intriguing results from measurements conducted on Hong Kong roads will be shared. Furthermore, the potential for new prediction capabilities, stemming from the availability of tyre/road noise power levels, in the realm of urban noise planning and management will be discussed.
