Reliability of Contralateral Suppression in Evoked Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022
Introduction Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) and their suppression may be considered useful in monitoring cochlear function and the efferent auditory pathway inhibitory effect.

NOISE EFFECTS IN POLYMER DYNAMICS [PDF]

International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2008
The study of the noise induced effects on the dynamics of a chain molecule crossing a potential barrier, in the presence of a metastable state, is presented. A two-dimensional stochastic version of the Rouse model for a flexible polymer has been adopted to mimic the molecular dynamics and to take into account the interactions between adjacent monomers.

An Effective Noise Estimator for Use in Noise Reduction [PDF]

Journal of information and communication convergence engineering, 2011
Conventional noise reduction filtering schemes realize limited improvements of the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) in the low-level noisy images. The flatness degree and the edge information are effectively used to estimate the noise volume. We propose a noise estimator for reducing noise in the AWGN (additive white gaussian noise) corrupted images ...

Evoked otoacoustic emissions in workers exposed to noise: A review

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2012
Summary Introduction: The otoacoustic emissions test is an essential tool in the evaluation of auditory function, since it allows the early detection of cochlear damage of occupational origin.

The effect of noise on requirements comprehension [PDF]

Proceedings of the 40th International Conference on Software Engineering: Companion Proceeedings, 2018
We conducted a controlled experiment with 55 nal-year undergraduate students in Computer Science. We asked them to comprehend functional requirements exposing them or not to noise. We did not observe any e ect of noise on requirements comprehension.

Exploring noise annoyance and sound quality for airborne wind energy systems: insights from a listening experiment [PDF]

Wind Energy Science
This study investigates the relationship between sound quality metrics (SQMs) and noise annoyance caused by airborne wind energy systems (AWESs). In a controlled listening experiment, 75 participants rated their annoyance on the International Commission ...

Detrimental effects of noise on anaesthetists [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1995
To study the detrimental effects of operating room noise, noise levels in operating rooms were first measured and the average noise level was calculated in Decibels, which was 77.32 dB(A). An audiocassette of 90 min duration was prepared recording the operating room noise.

Climate Impact Mitigation Potential of European Air Traffic in a Weather Situation with Strong Contrail Formation

Aerospace, 2021
Air traffic contributes to anthropogenic global warming by about 5% due to CO2 emissions and non-CO2 effects, which are primarily caused by the emission of NOx and water vapor as well as the formation of contrails.

The effect of AM noise on correlation phase-noise measurements [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2007
We analyze the phase-noise measurement methods in which correlation and averaging is used to reject the background noise of the instrument. All the known methods make use of a mixer, used either as a saturated phase detector or as a linear synchronous detector. Unfortunately, AM noise is taken in through the power-to-dc-offset conversion mechanism that
