Abstract

Understanding exhaust and noise emissions-related dynamics in urban environments presents ongoing challenges, aggravated by the absence of integrated assessments and noise models capable of handling single-vehicle kinematic data. This paper offers a comprehensive methodology aimed at addressing these gaps through the development of noise, carbon dioxide (CO₂), and nitrogen oxides (NO_X) emission maps using microscopic models. Focusing on a network consisting of a national road and an urban multilane roundabout, the study uses a microscopic multi-modal traffic simulation tool. It simulates traffic volumes, speed and acceleration profiles, and pedestrian movements over a 14-hour period to feed the models. The findings underscore roundabout entries as critical CO₂ and NO_X hotspots, while noise hotspots are linked to network congestion levels and the interactions between vehicles and pedestrians. This approach facilitates the monitoring of emissions and offers insights for urban planning decisions aimed at fostering sustainable development.

绘制噪声和污染物排放热点图：基于驾驶行为和车辆特征的分析

了解城市环境中与废气和噪声排放相关的动态是一项持续的挑战，而能够处理单车运动学数据的综合评估和噪声模型的缺乏则加剧了这一挑战。本文提供了一种综合方法，旨在通过使用微观模型绘制噪声、二氧化碳（CO2）和氮氧化物（NOX）排放图来填补这些空白。该研究以由一条国道和一个城市多车道环岛组成的网络为重点，使用了一种微观多模式交通模拟工具。它模拟了 14 小时内的交通流量、速度和加速度曲线以及行人流动情况，为模型提供信息。研究结果表明，环岛入口是二氧化碳和氮氧化物的关键热点，而噪声热点则与网络拥堵程度以及车辆和行人之间的相互作用有关。这种方法有助于监测排放量，并为旨在促进可持续发展的城市规划决策提供启示。

期刊介绍： Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment focuses on original research exploring the environmental impacts of transportation, policy responses to these impacts, and their implications for transportation system design, planning, and management. The journal comprehensively covers the interaction between transportation and the environment, ranging from local effects on specific geographical areas to global implications such as natural resource depletion and atmospheric pollution. We welcome research papers across all transportation modes, including maritime, air, and land transportation, assessing their environmental impacts broadly. Papers addressing both mobile aspects and transportation infrastructure are considered. The journal prioritizes empirical findings and policy responses of regulatory, planning, technical, or fiscal nature. Articles are policy-driven, accessible, and applicable to readers from diverse disciplines, emphasizing relevance and practicality. We encourage interdisciplinary submissions and welcome contributions from economically developing and advanced countries alike, reflecting our international orientation.
