Résumé / Abstract
In the framework of a ' French research programme on ground transportation ' (PREDIT), several research groups coming from four national laboratories and institutions, from the environmental technical service of the city of Nantes and from a consulting company are working together on a research project dealing with a national database on the acoustic emission of ground transportation. These researches are dealing with the elaboration of values of the acoustic emission for vehicles running under various operating conditions, in order to update the previous values contained in the French ?guide du bruit des transports terrestres?. Those values for cars, trucks, tramways and motorcycles are obtained through specific experimental procedures detailed in this paper. All the values associated to the vehicle and road characteristics are gathered in a computarized database under the Microsoft access environment.
