Abstract

Abstract The Poblenou Superblock, in Barcelona, is a crucial element in the development of the new city-planning within the framework of the Superblock (Superilles) concept, whose principal aim is to recover the cultural, economic and social exchanges once produced in streets and squares. People living in urban areas need a lower traffic density, more green spaces and cleaner air in order to restore the previous uses of public spaces in their day-today lives. The urban actions conducted at this Superblock to change its uses were completed about 3 years ago, and neighbours and workers have already taken over the new spaces. In an interdisciplinary work on urban planning and acoustics, we detail the preliminary results of the acoustic events found in the recordings in a soundwalk in the heart of the Poblenou Superblock. Fifteen people evaluate and record sound fragments with the Hush City App application, in order to establish comparisons between the different points of the route, observe the spaces arranged for people and perceive the soundscape. Meanwhile, several acoustic technicians record 5-min long audios in the different stops designed for the soundwalk. The points chosen to make the recordings are very different from each other, some of them in the middle of gardens and others are on pacific streets and finally, we also wanted to include Superblock borders where the traffic is still very present. The results of our study were promising and have encouraged us to further investigate acoustics events in superblocks and include all the perceptual information provided by the Hush City App.

巴塞罗那Poblenou超级街区中心的声道:声学事件的初步研究
摘要位于巴塞罗那的Poblenou超级街区是在超级街区概念框架内制定新城市规划的关键要素,其主要目的是恢复曾经在街道和广场上产生的文化、经济和社会交流。生活在城市地区的人们需要更低的交通密度、更多的绿地和更清洁的空气,才能恢复他们日常生活中对公共空间的使用。在这个超级街区进行的改变用途的城市行动大约在3年前完成,邻居们和工人已经接管了新的空间。在一项关于城市规划和声学的跨学科研究中,我们详细介绍了在Poblenou超级街区中心的一次声音漫步录音中发现的声学事件的初步结果。15人使用Hush City应用程序评估和记录声音片段,以便在路线的不同点之间进行比较,观察为人们安排的空间并感知声景。与此同时,几位声学技术人员在为声音漫步设计的不同站点录制了5分钟长的音频。制作录音的地点彼此非常不同,其中一些位于花园中间,另一些位于太平洋街道上,最后,我们还希望包括交通仍然非常繁忙的Superblock边界。我们的研究结果很有希望,鼓励我们进一步研究超级区块中的声学事件,并包括Hush City应用程序提供的所有感知信息。

期刊介绍: Ever since its inception, Noise Mapping has been offering fast and comprehensive peer-review, while featuring prominent researchers among its Advisory Board. As a result, the journal is set to acquire a growing reputation as the main publication in the field of noise mapping, thus leading to a significant Impact Factor. The journal aims to promote and disseminate knowledge on noise mapping through the publication of high quality peer-reviewed papers focusing on the following aspects: noise mapping and noise action plans: case studies; models and algorithms for source characterization and outdoor sound propagation: proposals, applications, comparisons, round robin tests; local, national and international policies and good practices for noise mapping, planning, management and control; evaluation of noise mitigation actions; evaluation of environmental noise exposure; actions and communications to increase public awareness of environmental noise issues; outdoor soundscape studies and mapping; classification, evaluation and preservation of quiet areas.
