Community reaction to railway vibration at different times of the day (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Peris, E., Woodcock, J., Sica, G., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. (2011, July). Community reaction to railway vibration at different times of the day. Presented at 10th International Congress on Noise as a Public Health Problem (ICBEN) 2011, London, UK, London

A number of studies have shown different sensitivities to noise exposure for day, evening and night, in particular for railway and air traffic. Lden has been accepted as a good indicator for predicting noise annoyance. In the same way, time of day is... Read More about Community reaction to railway vibration at different times of the day.

Calculation of noise in residential environments (2011)

Koziel, Z., Peris, E., Woodcock, J., Sica, G., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. (2011, July). Calculation of noise in residential environments. Presented at 10th International Congress on Noise as a Public Health Problem (ICBEN) 2011, London, UK, London

The DEFRA funded project “Human Response to Vibration in Residential Environments” investigates relationships between human response in residential areas, primarily in terms of annoyance, and combined effects from exposure to vibration and noise. Thi... Read More about Calculation of noise in residential environments.

Estimation of vibration exposure in residential environments (2011)
Presentation / Conference
Sica, G., Woodcock, J., Peris, E., Koziel, Z., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. (2011, July). Estimation of vibration exposure in residential environments. Presented at 10th International Congress on Noise as a Public Health Problem (ICBEN) 2011, London, UK, London

The University of Salford has derived an exposure-response relationship for vibration in residential environments. Vibration measurements have been used for assessing the human exposure alongside a social study questionnaire based on face-to-face int...
