TRAVEL CLOTHING WITH NOISE-ABSORBING PROPERTIES

Yevhen Dorozhko Volodymyr Ilchenko

Based on scientific studies, it has been established that the noise generated by vehicles has a negative impact on human health. Therefore, effective design and planning solutions are needed to reduce the noise load in residential areas. Noise is usually generated as a result of the movement of vehicles, their engines and road surfaces. This noise can negatively affect people's health by causing stress, sleep problems, decreased concentration and other physical and psychological problems. The main principles of noise protection include the selection of a suitable site for the construction of highways and the use of special geometric solutions that help reduce the noise load on nearby areas. Also, the installation of soundproof barriers is an important aspect of noise protection. One of the effective means of noise protection is the development of a "quiet" road surface. This directional technology aims to create a road surface that reduces the noise level generated by the movement of vehicles. The development of a "quiet" pavement includes the use of special materials and technologies to reduce the level of noise generated when the tires come into contact with the road. For example, the use of acoustically absorbent materials or special asphalt mixes can help absorb or scatter sound waves from vehicle traffic. "Quiet" pavement has the advantage of not only reducing noise, but also maintaining comfort for residents living near highways. It helps to reduce the noise level that enters residential buildings and other structures, thereby creating more favorable conditions for recreation and a healthy life. The development of quiet pavement is an ongoing process requiring collaboration between scientists, engineers and material manufacturers. Constant research and improvement of technologies allow us to achieve even more effective results in reducing the noise load of populated areas. Such innovative solutions in the field of road construction are designed to create a more favorable and environmentally friendly environment, where the noise from vehicles will not adversely affect the health and quality of life of people
