Abstract The work is devoted to the peculiarities of acoustic pollution of roadside territories. The studied territory is characterized by uneven acoustic load on the experimental sections of the highways of the Republic of Crimea, which is associated with the peculiarities of traffic flow and technical characteristics of cars. The article considers the indicators of the equivalent and maximum levels of motor vehicle noise. As the research result, the excess of noise level from 10 to 30 dBA was revealed. The maximum level of acoustic pollution was recorded in 10-meter zone, at a distance of 30 m from the noise source the level of acoustic pollution is reduced to 5-10 dBA.

Present experience shows that it is impossible to solve the problem of traffic congestion without intelligent transport systems. Traffic management in many cities uses the data of detectors installed at controlled intersections. Further, to assess the traffic situation, the data on the traffic flow rate and its concentration are compared. Latest scientific studies propose a transition from spatial to temporal concentration. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to establish the regularities of the influence of traffic flow concentration in time on traffic flow rate at controlled city intersections. The methodological basis of this study was a systemic approach. Theoretical and experimental studies were based on the existing provisions of system analysis, traffic flow theory, experiment planning, impulses, probabilities, and mathematical statistics. Experimental data were obtained and processed using modern equipment and software: Traficam video detectors, SPECTR traffic light controller, Traficam Data Tool, SPECTR 2.0, AutoCad 2017, and STATISTICA 10. In the course of this study, the authors analyzed the dynamics of changes in the level of motorization, the structure of the motor vehicle fleet, and the dynamics of changes in the number of controlled intersections. As a result of theoretical studies, a hypothesis was put forward that the investigated process is described by a two-factor quadratic multiplicative model. Experimental studies determined the parameters of the developed model depending on the directions of traffic flow, and confirmed its adequacy according to Fisher’s criterion with a probability of at least 0.9. The results obtained can be used to control traffic flows at controlled city intersections.

In the following work, we solve the problem of the best orientation of a rigid noise barrier, which has one face lined with absorbent material, between a noise source and a receiver point in the shadow region of the barrier. By the ‘best orientation’, we mean that positioning of the barrier which yields the least noise level at the receiving point for a given barrier and source position.

Iron (Fe) is one of many heavy metals that is corrosive resistant, dense, and has a low melting point. If accumulated in the body, the metal can cause some medical conditions, such as irritation to skin and eyes, breathing problems, and in the long term, cancer. This research aims to know generally the spread of metallic iron (Fe) in the river Pasar in Belangwetan, Klaten. This study was conducted using an observational method in which researchers did not examine the effects of interventions. Sampling was done using purposive sampling method taken from three points, namely the upper, middle, lower. Determination of iron levels by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) obtained a positive result, and the data was processed using SPSS to determine the Mean and Standard Deviation. Of the research result, it could be known the Mean score was 2.33 ppm and SD was 0.0352. The result of this research indicated that the levels of iron in the river Pasar in Belangwetan were 2.33 ppm. It means that the levels violate the regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, which is not more than 1mg/L (1ppm) in the clean water

The aim of the study was to assess the influence of truck traffic on acoustic pollution in two Kaunas districts crossed by highways‐ Eiguliai and Šilainiai. Composition of traffic flow and noise measurements were conducted near the main streets and national highways that cross the districts. GIS and statistical software SPSS 12.01 were used for the data analysis. The study results showed that mean noise level near the main streets was 70 dB(A) in the daytime,‐ 68.6 dB(A) in the evening and at night it was 61.1 dB(A) in Eiguliai, and in Šilainiai it was 67 dB(A), 65 dB(A) and 58 dB(A), correspondingly. On the highways, crossing the districts, heavy vehicles compose about 3 times higher part of total traffic flow during the day and about 2 times in the evening compared to other main streets. The noise level depended on the traffic flow and correlation coefficient fluctuated from 0.77 to 0.85. The modelling of traffic flow showed, that the increase of trucks proportion by 2 percent would increase the traffic noise by 1.1 dB(A) in the streets with traffic flow of 300 veh./hour or more, and by 1.8 dB(A) with traffic flow of 200 veh./hour or less. Our findings suggest that the influence of heavy vehicles on acoustic pollution is higher in the districts with lower traffic flow. Santrauka Tyrimo tikslas – nustatyti krovininio autotransporto įtaką akustinei taršai Kauno mikrorajonuose, kuriuos kerta respublikinės reikšmės magistralės – Islandijos plentas ir vakarinis lankstas. Aplinkos triukšmo lygis ir transporto srautų intensyvumas Eigulių ir Šilainių seniūnijoje buvo matuotas 34 taškuose – dieną, vakare ir naktį. Duomenims apdoroti taikyta geografinių informacinių (GIS) sistemų technologijos, SPSS 12.0.1 ir Statistica 15 statistinės analizės paketai. Tyrimų rezultatai: vidutinis ekvivalentinis triukšmo lygis Eigulių seniūnijoje dieną prie pagrindinių gatvių siekė 70 dBA, vakare – 68,6 dBA, o naktį – 61,1 dBA ir iš esmės nesiskyrė nuo Šilainių seniūnijos, atitinkamai 67 dBA, 65 dBA ir 58 dBA. Magistraliniuose keliuose, kertančiuose Eigulių ir Šilainių seniūnijas, vidutinis transporto srautų intensyvumas dieną ir vakare buvo 5 kartus, naktį 6 kartus didesnis nei vidutinis srautų intensyvumas pagrindinėse gatvėse tuo pačiu metu, o krovininio autotransporto dalis dieną 3 kartus, o vakare 2 kartus viršijo vidutinius pagrindinių gatvių srautus. Nustatyta sąsaja tarp transporto srautų intensyvumo ir triukšmo lygio: Eigulių seniūnijos dienos koreliacijos koeficientas buvo 0,85, vakaro ir nakties – 0,83, o Šilainių seniūnijos – atitinkamai 0,78, 0,77 ir 0,80. Transporto srautų sudėties modeliavimo duomenimis, padidėjus krovininio transporto proporcijai 2 %, gatvėse, kuriose transporto srautas didesnis nei 300 aut./val., triukšmo lygis padidėtų 1,1 dBA, o kur transporto srautas mažesnis nei 200 aut./val., triukšmo lygis padidėtų 1,8 dBA (koreliacijos koeficientas – 0,63). Krovininio transporto įtaka akustinei taršai didesnė mikrorajonuose, kuriuose transporto srautai nedideli. Резюме Целью данной работы было изучить влияние грузового автотранспорта на акустическое загрязнение в микрорайонах города Каунаса, которые пересекают трассы государственного значения. Это шоссе Исландиос и объезд Вакаринис. Состав транспортного потока определялся и уровень шума измерялся около главных улиц микрорайонов. Результаты исследования показали, что средний уровень шума днем был 70 dBA, вечером – 68,6 dBA, ночью – 61,1 dBA. На трассах государственного значения, пересекающих микрорайоны, по сравнению с другими улицами потоки грузовых автомобилей были в 3 раза больше днем и 2 раза больше вечером. Установлена зaвисимость между величиной транспортного потока и шума (r = 0,77–0,85). Моделирование состава транспортного потока показало, что при увеличении на улицах грузового транспорта на 2% с 300 авт./час и больше шум увеличивается на 1,1 dBA, а при количестве грузового транспорта, составляющем 200 авт./час и меньше, шум возрастает на 1,8 dBA. Влияние грузового автотранспорта на акустическое загрязнение больше в микрорайонах с небольшим транспортным потоком.

Both Turkish and Azerbaijani legislation requires motor vehicle owners to enter into a contract of compulsory civil liability insurance. The list of vehicles with compulsory civil liability insurance to third parties is reflected in Article 50.2 of the Law of the Republic of Azerbaijan on “Compulsory Insurance”. A similar list of vehicles with compulsory civil liability insurance is reflected in the Law of the Republic of Turkey “On Motor Roads”. Losses included in the coverage area of the insurance contract on compulsory civil liability insurance of motor vehicle owners are classified in the form of damage to vehicles, material damage and damage to life and health of the victim.
