Estimating variation in community noise due to variation in aircraft operations (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Synodinos, A., Self, R., Flindell, I., & Torija Martinez, A. (2015, May). Estimating variation in community noise due to variation in aircraft operations. Presented at 10th European Congress and Exposition on Noise Control Engineering (EuroNoise2015), Maastricht, Holland

Notwithstanding considerable effort by many researchers world-wide, the estimation of community noise due to changes in aircraft fleets and operations remains subject to considerable uncertainty. This paper describes a new taxonomical architecture... Read More about Estimating variation in community noise due to variation in aircraft operations.

Implementing BIM to Streamline a Design, Manufacture and Fitting Workflow. (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Machado, M., Underwood, J., & Fleming, A. (2015, May). Implementing BIM to Streamline a Design, Manufacture and Fitting Workflow. Poster presented at Modular and Offsite Construction [MOC] Summit, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

Lean and Building Information Modelling (BIM) have synergies. BIM Implementation demands changes in existing process and procedures for design and construction, representing a technology change, but also a process change. Technology should fit organi...

Affective response to amplitude modulated wind turbine noise (2015)
Presentation / Conference
von Hünerbein, S., & Piper, B. (2015, April). Affective response to amplitude modulated wind turbine noise. Presented at Wind Turbine Noise 2015, Glasgow

Residents living adjacent to wind farms are exposed to a combination of turbine noise and background noise with all its environmental and local constituents. As the amplitude modulation character in turbine sounds is thought to specifically contribut... Read More about Affective response to amplitude modulated wind turbine noise.

Detailed directivity measurements of aerodynamic sound sources (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Elliott, A., Meggitt, J., & Moorhouse, A. (2015, April). Detailed directivity measurements of aerodynamic sound sources. Presented at Noise and Vibration - Emerging Technologies, Dubrovnik, Croatia

The sound radiated by a vibrating surface can be modelled using combinations of elementary sources but for aerodynamic noise sources it less clear how to do so. It is proposed here that the arrangement and number of ideal sources required to represen... Read More about Detailed directivity measurements of aerodynamic sound sources.

Automatic retrieval of closed captions for web clips from broadcast TV content (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Hughes, C., & Armstrong, M. (2015, April). Automatic retrieval of closed captions for web clips from broadcast TV content. Presented at 2015 NAB Broadcast Engineering Conference, Las Vegas, USA

As broadcasters’ web sites become more media rich it would be prohibitively expensive to manually caption all of the videos provided. However, many of these videos have been clipped from broadcast television and would have been captioned at the p...
