4 PLGRID PLUS PROJECT

5 Plgrid Plus Project Domain-oriented services and resources of Polish Infrastructure for Supporting Computational Science in the European Research Space Most important task is preparation of specific computing environments so called domain grids i.e., solutions, services and extended infrastructure (including software), tailored to the needs of different groups of scientists. 13 groups of users: AstroGrid-PL, HEPGrid, Nanotechnologies, Acoustics, Life Science, Chemistry and Physics, Ecology, SynchroGrid, Energetics, Bioinformatics, Health, Materials, and Metallurgy.

8 Methodology Noise source part Propagation part

9 METHODOLOGY NOISE SOURCE PART (ROAD NOISE)

10 Road noise source model Road as line source consists of 2 submodels: The vehicle model, describing the sound power of single moving vehicle The traffic model, combining the noise emission of numerous single vehicles into the sound power per meter length of the line source Two main sources of vehicle s noise taken into account in mathematical model: interaction between wheel and road surface vehicle s propulsion (engine, transmission, exhaust)

11 Road noise source model Category Name Description 1 2 Light motor vehicles Medium heavy vehicles Passenger cars, delivery vans <3.5t, SUV's, MPV's including trailers and caravans Medium heavy vehicles, delivery vans >3.5t, buses, touring cars, etc. with two axles and twin tire mounting on rear axle Vehicle category according to the EU/ECE type approval M1 and N1 M2, M3 and N2, N3 3 Heavy vehicles Heavy duty vehicles, touring cars, buses with three or more axles M2 and N2 with trailer, M3 and N3 4 Powered two-wheelers 4a motorcycles, tricycles or quads, engine <50 ccm 4b motorcycles, tricycles or quads, engine >50 ccm L3, L4, L5, L7

17 Parallel processing PREPARE DATA (MASTER) PARALLEL PROCESSING START Read input data Spread data to all cores All cores received task? YES Worker returned output? YES All tasks calculated? NO NO NO Send next task to worker core Wait for workers output Send next task to worker core The usage of MPI* Master core distributes tasks to the others In the beginning master sends 1 task to each core When worker core finishes computations, sends message with outcome Master receives outcome and sends next task to worker End, when all tasks are processed YES Format and save output data STOP *MPI (Message Passing Interface) - is a specification for an API that allows many computers to communicate with one another. It is used in computer clusters and supercomputers.

24 REVERSE INGENEERING

25 REVERSE INGENEERING Typically, if we want to calculate the noise map for a given area, we need the input data for the noise source model. In the considered case, only road noise sources were taken into account. In consequence, we need information about: number of vehicles per hour, type of road surface, type of vehicle, vehicle speed. The employed noise monitoring station did not deliver data about the road noise parameters. The missing data are calculated on the basis of the measured noise level.

26 REVERSE INGENEERING The reverse engineering technique is applied for this purpose. We assume that monitoring stations measure noise the main source which derives from the nearest road. To get the input data for the noise source model we need to calculate the number of vehicles on the basis of the measured noise level. Other factors of road noise source remain constant.

36 CONCLUSIONS

37 CONCLUSIONS As a result of the described work, the system for dynamic noise maps calculation employing supercomputing grid and sensor network was practically implemented, and tested. The implementation of the software for the traffic flow determination on the basis of acoustic climate measurements was performed. Use of hardware devices for traffic flow measurements, which are currently being installed in the city, would help to achieve precise source model parameters.
