Abstract (EN)

Although sound is generally perceived as negative, together with technology, in the food industry (extension of shelf life), in fire fighting, in health (cancer treatment, weight loss, monitoring of the baby during pregnancy), in locating (under the ocean and in the war areas), in cleaning (cleaning of harmful gases, waste water treatment). Although it is usefully used in areas such as cleaning; Along with the rapid urbanization and industrialization process, it brings along many environmental problems. One of these is noise pollution, which causes significant disturbance in urban landscapes. The most important source of noise in cities is traffic originating from motor vehicles. Especially when we consider different activities in cities, noise pollution has started to make a name for itself as well as other disturbances. Recently, noise, on which acoustics has also studied, has led to the migration of people to cities due to job opportunities, especially with the industrial revolution, and has increased in direct proportion with the increase in population. Traffic noise, which is considered as one of the main causes of this noise, has adversely affected human health, and since the increase in the number of affected individuals has become a threat to public health, the importance given to noise by the society has gradually increased.
