AbstractAbout AuthorsReferences
The modern big city (urban agglomeration) is a loud place for work and/or living, which is chosen by a significant part of humanity. It should be noted that the noise is an extremely aggressive and widespread form of pollution of the urban environment, and the increase in the urban population and its mobility leads to an increase in noise, including the emergence of new sources. Most researchers, highlighting the diversity of urban noise sources, primarily determine the impact of traffic noise. This article summarizes some applications of the Monte Carlo method in urban acoustics and, in particular, defines the characteristics of noise of different types of noise sources and predicts the propagation of sound waves.
