In view of the congress INTERNOISE 2022, which will be held in August 21–24 2022, at the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow, U.K., Continental and Université Gustave Eiffel are organizing a structured session on “Tyre/road noise”. Contributions are expected in tyre/road noise like measurements, modelling, standardization, and legislation, both from the tyre and the […]
After the evaluation of two asphalt mixes on the experimental track of the Campus of Nantes (Université Gustave Eiffel), an asphalt mixture containing crumb rubber from recycled tyres has been implemented in a street of Florence (Via Paisiello), in order to analyse its performance for traffic noise reduction in urban conditions. With the Italian project […]
In the context of networking activities of LIFE E-VIA project, on 15 October 2021 a newspaper article was published on Italian journals. LaNazione Firenze: https://life-evia.eu/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/LA-NAZIONE-FIRENZE_PROGETTO-LIFE-E-VIA.pdf
Post-operam measurements of noise and traffic flows in Via Paisiello, the pilot case of the Life E-VIA project, have been completed. The comparison between the measurements taken before and after the laying of the new low-noise asphalt will make it possible to assess the benefit in terms of noise reduction. The asphalt mixture contains crumb […]
For the selection of optimized EV tyres Continental Reifen Deutschland delivers carved prototype tyres to Université Gustave Eiffel for testing on the LIFE E-VIA prototypal test surfaces in Nantes: Université Gustave Eiffel performs CPX measurements. These tyres aim at optimizing the balance of exterior noise performance and other tyre performances (e.g. rolling resistance, grip) for EV […]
Last week, asphalting works were carried out in Via Paisiello, the pilot case of the LIFE E-VIA EUROPEAN PROJECT. The type of asphalt applied was studied in the project and will reduce noise pollution from vehicle traffic.
