Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Genaro, N., Torija Martinez, A., Ramos, A., Requena, I., Ruiz, D., & Zamorano, M. (2009, November). Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks. Presented at 2009 Ninth International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications, Pisa, Italy

Since 1972, when the World Health Organization
(WHO) classified noise as a pollutant, most industrialized countries
have enacted laws or local regulations that regulate noise
levels. Many scientists have tried to model urban noise, but
the result... Read More about Modeling environmental noise using artificial neural networks.

Model to predict the level and the temporal and spectral composition of the sound pressure in urban soundscapes based on neural networks (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Torija Martinez, A., Ruiz, D., & Ramos-Ridao, A. (2009, October). Model to predict the level and the temporal and spectral composition of the sound pressure in urban soundscapes based on neural networks. Presented at Euronoise 2009, Edinburgh, U.K

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 soundscapes capable of providing
inhabitants with a high quality of life. In the framework of the... Read More about Model to predict the level and the temporal and spectral composition of the sound pressure in urban soundscapes based on neural networks.

Closed-form analytical approach for calculating noise contours of directive aircraft noise sources
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper comes as an update to the simplified airport noise model RANE (Rapid Aviation Noise Evaluator) adding capability of including fully non-isotropic noise sources. RANE v2 is developed as a part of multidisciplinary acoustic assessment of nov... Read More about Closed-form analytical approach for calculating noise contours of directive aircraft noise sources.

Drone noise, a new public health challenge?
Presentation / Conference
Torija Martinez, A. Drone noise, a new public health challenge?. Presented at Quiet Drones International e-Symposium on UAV/UAS Noise, Remote from Paris (France)

There is a rapidly growing interest in manned and unmanned aerial vehicles of different size from small multi-rotor drones to Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vehicles. With the projected expansion of the sector, for a variety of applications from parcel del... Read More about Drone noise, a new public health challenge?.

Metrics for assessing the perception of drone noise
Presentation / Conference
Torija Martinez, A., & Li, Z. Metrics for assessing the perception of drone noise. Presented at e-Forum Acusticum 2020, Online

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology is rapidly
advancing, and therefore, the potential for UAV use
seems almost unlimited at this stage. Diverse UAV
stakeholders are currently exploring the feasibility of
different UAV applications for monit... Read More about Metrics for assessing the perception of drone noise.
