Abstract
The paper presents a retrospective study for selection of noise barrier
for road traffic noise abatement. The work proposes the application of
Fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal
solution) approach is selection of optimal road traffic noise barrier. The
present work utilizes the fuzzy TOPSIS model proposed by Mahdavi et al.
(2008) in determination of ranking order of various types of noise
barriers with respect to the various criteria considered. It is suggested
that application of this approach can be very helpful in selection and
application of optimal noise barrier for road traffic noise abatement.
