Abstract

The use of low-noise pavements is a valid solution to reduce road traffic noise at source. Further studies are needed to optimize their design and ensure their durability. In this work, low-noise pavements were characterised using innovative and traditional methods on four different pavements: two of them contained crumb rubber added by dry and wet processes, one had an optimized texture and the last one was a traditional dense asphalt concrete. Using a sensor inside the tyre, the tyre cavity noise (TCN) was recorded and analysed, putting it in relation with the Close Proximity Method (CPX) data and the pavement texture measured by a laser profilometer. This paper aims to improve the knowledge of the relationship between the vibrational components of the tyre-pavement interaction using new and old descriptors, extending the types of pavements studied in past researches.
