... H3 second source region aligns with the muffler shown in the photograph, which is just behind the cab and low to the pavement. The highest one-third octave band levels occur in the 630 Hz contours, which clearly indicate drive axle tire noise as the source in this band.

... H7 on the contours for this vehicle, which are shown in Figure H5, no elevated exhaust stack was apparent; however, there is a rack attached to the bed of the truck with an all-terrain vehicle mounted on it and protruding above the back of the truck cab. Aside from the elevated cargo noise source, the primary noise source for the medium truck of Run 109 appears to be from the drive axle tires, which seem to be quite pronounced in the 500 Hz band.

... H11 may be contributing to the medium truck profiles showing similar behavior to the heavy trucks. Of course, the limited number of medium trucks measured at 505 NB1 limits the statistical relevance of the data set, which means that more trucks would have to be tested to determine if this pattern continues.
