Adventures in High Intensity Acoustic Testing: a Loudspeaker System for Small-Scale Tests (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Hargreaves, J., Hipperson, J., Wong-McSweeney, D., & O'Doherty, N. (2023). Adventures in High Intensity Acoustic Testing: a Loudspeaker System for Small-Scale Tests.

In the space and aerospace industry, there is a need to perform High Intensity Acoustic Testing (HIAT). This aims to recreate in the laboratory, for the purpose of qualification testing, the extreme acoustic environments that designs must survive in...

Applications of a hybrid method to a plate with simply supported boundary conditions (2023)
Journal Article
Churchill, C., Meggitt, J. W. R., Wong-Mcsweeney, D., Cox, T. J., & Woodcock, J. (2023). Applications of a hybrid method to a plate with simply supported boundary conditions. https://doi.org/10.61782/fa.2023.0186

* The EN12354 building acoustics prediction standards are based on the statistical energy analysis (SEA) method. In a traditional SEA path analysis, lightweight or heavyweight materials have different principal paths that determine the sound insulati...

Noisy neighbours : towards a hybrid prediction and testing process for sound insulating partitions (2021)
Journal Article
Whittle, G., Elliott, A., Meggitt, J., Wong-McSweeney, D., & Parsons, R. (2021). Noisy neighbours : towards a hybrid prediction and testing process for sound insulating partitions. https://doi.org/10.25144/13759

There are numerous methods for characterising sound insulating and impact noise reducing components and systems, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Two of the predominant modelling techniques for prediction of transmission loss through...

Effect of attitudinal, situational and demographic factors on annoyance due to environmental vibration and noise from construction of a light rapid transit system (2016)
Journal Article
rapid transit system. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 13(12), 1237. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph13121237

The aim of this paper is to determine what non-exposure factors influence the relationship between vibration and noise exposure from the construction of a Light Rapid Transit (LRT) system and the annoyance of nearby residents. Noise and vibration f...

Human annoyance, acceptability and concern as responses to vibration from the construction of light rapid transit lines in residential environments (2016)
Journal Article
rapid transit lines in residential environments. Science of the Total Environment, 568, 1308-1314. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.01.121

The aim of this paper is to investigate the use of different self-reported measures for assessing the human response to environmental vibration from the construction of an urban LRT (Light Rapid Transit) system. The human response to environmental st...
