"Sustainable Road Surfaces for Traffic Noise Control - Recommendations on Specifications for Tyre and Vehicle Requirements";
Bericht für EU DG TREN, EU Project SILVIA; 2004.

The goal of this document is to examine the parameters of tyres, vehicles and driving conditions in order to demonstrate the potential to further the noise reductions achieved by low-noise surfaces through a systematic optimisation of the vehicle, tyre and road surface. This work has been carried out as part of work package 5: Integration of Low-Noise Pavements with Other Noise Abatement Measures. This report gives an overview of the general effects of various tyre and vehicle parameters, a brief review of the SILVIA database,and analyses of the influences of various tyre and vehicle parameters on traffic noise. These analyses are based on data present in the SILVIA database, supplemented with results from relevant literature. Based on these analyses recommendations have been made concerning guidelines for vehicle and tyre manufacturers and legislators as a way to improve the performance of low noise surfaces through optimising the vehicle and tyres.
