Document presents considerations on amendments to the RD-ASEP Sound Expectation Model SEM concerning calculation of the dynamic base and dynamic load addon. The dynamic sound increase of a vehicle is covered by a dynamic term aggregating all dynamics. A minimum threshold is proposed to be specified as max(0.25; ΔL_dyn) to ensure the function does not become zero or negative due to measurement uncertainties. The value 0.25 is selected to deliver comparable results as the current 10 dB minimum dynamic specification. In combination with a restriction of factor x to an area of 10 to 90 for ICE, the model becomes very robust with fluent transients and no unsteady steps.
