The ST AMINA 2.0 computer program is the most commonly used method for prediction of
traffic noi e levels for impact analy is and noise barrier design. However, the program was
based on theory for freely flowing vehicles at a constant speed. The work presented in thi
paper represents development of a methodology to use STAMINA 2.0 in nonconstant speed
situation, uha ignalized intersections, intersections with Stop signs tollbooths, and highway
loop and lip ramps. Through a review of Hterature and collection of new emission levels on …

This report presents development of a methodology to predict stop-and-go traffic noise
levels through use of the STAMINA 2.0 computer program. The methodology may be applied
to signalized and unsignalized (signed) intersections or areas of speed change such as
highway ramps. However, it was not developed for use in areas of unstable flow or in
reverberant urban street canyons. Both of these restrictions are largely due to limitations in
the STAMINA code. Zones of influence are defined where acceleration or deceleration …
