Reported are the interim results of a program to develop a basic understanding of urban transit wheel/rail noise generation for application to the evaluation and improvement of wheel/rail noise control devices. The report critically reviews existing analytic models and related experimental findings for the wheel/rail dynamic system and for the three categories of wheel/rail noise generation: squeal, impact and roar. The limitations found result in recommendations for the remaining work required. A compilation is presented of existing or promising wheel/rail noise control devices, their acoustic and nonacoustic effects.
