Report
Sica, G., Woodcock, J., Peris, E., Koziel, Z., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. (2011). Human response to vibration in residential environments (NANR209), technical report 3 : calculation of vibration exposure

The Technical Report 3 describes the research undertaken to develop a methodology by which human exposure to vibration in residential environments can be calculated. That work has carried out by the University of Salford supported by the Department o...

Report
Part 2: Results of measurements and analysis

Description To research the quantification of vibration from a micro turbine, and to develop a method of prediction of vibration and structure borne noise in a wide variety of installations in the UK. Objective The objectives of the study... Read More about Noise and vibration from building-mounted micro wind turbines Part 2: Results of measurements and analysis.

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...
