Three-Dimensional Sound Intensity Prediction System

Abstract

A sound intensity prediction system is disclosed that predicts the sound intensity created from a noise event and determines, on a three-dimensional basis taking into account cross winds and a moving noise source, the concentration of acoustic ray end points on land to indicate areas of noise intensification zones and where acoustic rays never touch down to indicate areas of quiet.
