Towards a subjective quantification of noise annoyance due to outdoor events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
This research investigates the subjective quantification of noise annoyance due to outdoor events and aims to create a subjectively calibrated tool to quantify potential off-site annoyance from live event sound reinforcement systems. We've explored noise

Tyre/road noise annoyance assessment through virtual sounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Road-traffic noise is the most significant source of environmental noise. Among the several different sources of noise emission from vehicles, tyre/road noise at speeds above 40 km/h is the most prevalent.

A multidimensional evaluation of the perception and annoyance caused by railway induced groundborne vibration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents a study investigating seated subjects' perception of railway induced groundborne vibration in the vertical direction. Previous studies into the perception of railway induced vibration have treated this phenomenon as a unidimensional ...

ANASE: measuring aircraft noise annoyance very unreliably. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Does anyone who lives under a flight-path like aircraft noise? It is a political hot potato as well as a peace-destroyer. Tens of thousands of people will hear the noise from any third runway at Heathrow.

Short-term noise annoyance and electrodermal response as a function of sound-pressure level, cognitive task load, and noise sensitivity

open access: yesNoise and Health, 2020
Introduction: Two aspects of noise annoyance were addressed in the present laboratory study: (1) the disturbance produced by vehicle pass-by noise while engaging in a challenging non-auditory task, and (2) the evaluative response elicited by the same ...
