TIRE NOISE REGULATIONS: TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS

Although it is possible to abate most of the engine-related noise sources on trucks, tire noise remains an unsolved problem at highway speeds. The article presents a discussion about the operational and design variables affecting tire noise and investigates the technical and economic factors associated with current tire use practices and with revisions which may be necessary to comply with future tire noise regulations.
