Exposure-response relationships from railway noise in the presence of vibration (2011)
Thesis
Koziel, Z. Exposure-response relationships from railway noise in the presence of vibration. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The main aim of this thesis is to develop exposure-response relationships for noise, vibration, and combined effects from noise and vibration. Examinations of nonacoustical factors such as noise sensitivity, noise acceptance, gender, age, and sleep...

A good practice guide on the sources and magnitude of uncertainty arising in the practical measurement of environmental noise (2007)
Book
Craven, N., & Kerry, G. (2007). A good practice guide on the sources and magnitude of uncertainty arising in the practical measurement of environmental noise. University of Salford

A brief introduction to measurement uncertainty, uncertainty budgets, and inter-comparison exercises (repeated measurements), is provided in Chapter 2. The procedure forformulating an uncertainty budget and evaluating magnitudes is outlined in greate...

The effects of centrifugal blowers, control valves, attenuating devices and reservoir resonance on organ pipe flutter
Thesis
Taylor, A. (in press). The effects of centrifugal blowers, control valves, attenuating devices and reservoir resonance on organ pipe flutter. (Thesis). Computing,Science and Engineering

The aim of this research is to investigate the noticeable organ pipe flutter that may, under certain conditions, exist on a sounding organ pipe. The effectiveness of a pipe organ wind system is notoriously difficult to predict. For many years pipe or...
