Guidance document for the evaluation of railway vibration
Report
Woodcock, J., Peris, E., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. (2014). Guidance document for the evaluation of railway vibration

The objective of this deliverable is to provide guidance on the evaluation of human response to vibration from railways in residential environments. The deliverable outlines the currently available methods for the evaluation of disturbance from railw... Read More about Guidance document for the evaluation of railway vibration.

Human response to vibration in residential environments (NANR209), technical report 4: calculation of noise exposure
Report
Koziel, Z., Smith, M., Woodcock, J., Peris, E., Sica, G., Moorhouse, A., & Waddington, D. Human response to vibration in residential environments (NANR209), technical report 4: calculation of noise exposure

Although vibration is the primary focus of the “Human response to vibration in residential environments” project, it can be seen in the literature that noise, which covariates very well with vibration, can facilitate annoyance. Work was done towards... Read More about Human response to vibration in residential environments (NANR209), technical report 4: calculation of noise exposure.
