Abstract
The suitable prediction model for outdoor sound propagation
depends on the situation and the application. Computationally
intensive method such as Parabolic Equation methods, FFP methods
and Boundary Element Methods all have advantages in certain
situations. None of these approaches are at present able to handle
all the relevant aspects of propagation such as terrain features,
atmospheric wind and temperature gradients and turbulence.How much
wind can be tolerated when a model based upon a still homogeneous
atmosphereis used? How does a terrain feature affect the sound
propagation? An attempt is made to answer these questions and to
find the limits between which various approaches are
applicable.This should help identifying the more promising
approach for various applications.
