Three relationships are presented for indirect determination of the structural dynamic properties of substructures, namely the blocked force, mobility and free velocity. First, it is shown that the blocked force of a vibration source can be obtained...

Structure-borne sound and vibration from building-mounted wind turbines (2011)
Journal Article
Moorhouse, A., Elliott, A., Eastwick, G., Evans, T., Ryan, A., von Hünerbein, S., …Waddington, D. (2011). Structure-borne sound and vibration from building-mounted wind turbines. Environmental Research Letters, 6(3), 035102. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/6/3/035102

Noise continues to be a significant factor in the development of wind energy resources. In the case of building-mounted wind turbines (BMWTs), in addition to the usual airborne sound there is the potential for occupants to be affected by structure-bo...

Noise and vibration from building-mounted micro wind turbines part 3 : prediction methodology (2011)
Report
part 3 : prediction methodology

This brief report describes a simplified method for estimation of
levels of structure-borne sound in buildings to which a micro-wind
turbine (MWT) is attached. The method is applicable to two specific
designs of MWT, each for three lengths of moun... Read More about Noise and vibration from building-mounted micro wind turbines part 3 : prediction methodology.
