Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2011). Required stabilization time, short-term variability and impulsiveness of the sound pressure level to characterize the temporal composition of urban soundscapes. Applied Acoustics, 72(2-3), 89-99. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2010.09.011

Temporal composition of urban soundscapes is a very important aspect at the time of studying their description and perception. In urban agglomerations, environmental noise levels can vary over a wide range as a result of the great complexity of the...

A neural network based model for urban noise prediction. (2010)
Journal Article
Genaro, N., Torija Martinez, A., Ramos-Ridao, A., Requena, I., Ruiz, D., & Zamorano, M. (2010). A neural network based model for urban noise prediction. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 128(4), 1738-1746. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3473692

Noise is a global problem. In 1972 the World Health Organization (WHO) classified noise as a pollutant. Since then, most industrialized countries have enacted laws and local regulations to prevent and reduce acoustic environmental pollution. A furt...

Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure (2010)
Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., De Coensel, B., Botteldooren, D., Berglund, B., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2011). Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure. Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 16(1), 15-22. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2010.07.012

Using data from a realistic experiment conducted using recorded traffic sounds, the relationship between indicators of magnitude, spectrum, and temporal evolution of the sonic environment and the reported annoyance are analyzed. The exposure is cha... Read More about Relationship between road and railway noise annoyance and overall indoor sound exposure.

Priorization of acoustic variables : environmental decision support for the physical characterization of urban sound environments (2010)
Journal Article
Torija Martinez, A., Genaro, N., Ruiz, D., Ramos-Ridao, A., Zamorano, M., & Requena, I. (2010). Priorization of acoustic variables : environmental decision support for the physical characterization of urban sound environments. Building and Environment, 45, 1477-1489. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2009.12.011

Environmental noise is a factor with a significant impact on personal well-being. One of the principal challenges of urban planning is the creation of urban spaces capable of providing inhabitants with a high quality of life. Consequently urban spa...
