Acoustical algorithms were evaluated, with the goal of providing recommendations regarding transportation noise modeling in Ontario. Transportation noise modeling algorithms included in this evaluation were chosen to corresponding with current practices within Ontario, as well as to explore options commonly utilized within the US and Europe. Traffic noise emissions are generally calculated accounting for traffic mix, speed, pavement type, and road gradient. Technical performance was evaluated by considering the speed of the calculation as well as the potential to propagate errors. Each algorithm had deficiencies and virtues.}, number={3}, journal={Canadian Acoustics}, author={Carr, Kevin and Penton, Scott and Li, Marcus}, year={2011}, month={Sep.}, pages={84–85} }
