Improvement of impact sound insulation: A constitutive model for floating floors

open access: yesApplied Acoustics, 2018
Abstract Floating floors have a high potential for reducing disturbance by impact noises in dwellings, since it greatly reduces the vibrations transmission through structures. The acoustical performance of a floating floor is quantified in terms of improvement of impact sound insulation Δ L.

INFLUENCE OF NOISE SENSITIVITY ON PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES TO FLOOR IMPACT SOUNDS

open access: yes24th International Conference on Sound and Vibration 2017, London Calling
This study investigated the changes in physiological responses to floor impact sounds under a laboratory condition. A total of 34 normal-hearing participants took part in the experiment and were categorised into two groups with low and high noise-sensitivity scores. The participants were exposed to five-minute floor impact sounds produced by a standard
