Road traffic noise, sleep and mental health
Environmental Research, 2014This study examines the relationship between road traffic noise, self-reported sleep quality and mental health. The study is cross-sectional and based on data from a survey conducted in Oslo, Norway, in 2000. Psychological distress (Hopkins Symptom Checklist, HSCL-25) was measured along with self-reported somatic health, sleep quality, noise ...

Statistics of road traffic noise
Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1971Abstract Freely flowing traffic is modeled by randomly distributed sources on a line. Statistical parameters of the noise emitted from point sources of equal strength are derived in terms of the cumulants of the intensity normalized by its mean.

Variations of road traffic noise in residential areas
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008The ability to predict road noise in urban area is important. The community noise equivalent level (Lden) varies from day to day (weekdays, weekends, holidays, etc.). There is a need to compromise between the accuracy in the determination of Lden and limited resources of input data, the measuring equipment, and time.

Road traffic detection using wireless noise sensors
2012 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC), 2012In this paper we present our experimental result of using wireless noise sensor network (WNSN) to detect road traffic. With the features implemented in our network such as multipoint measuring, synchronization, real-time data availability, and strict compliance of sound level meter (SLM) standard IEC 61672:2003, we assert the possibility of using WNSN ...

Maximum noise levels in road traffic noise
Journal of Sound and Vibration, 1988Certain field investigations have shown that the correlation between the extent of annoyance due to road traffic noise and the noise dose expressed in leq is rather poor. A higher correlation was found when the expression of the noise dose was based upon the maximum noise level (mnl) from the single noisiest event. To determine the relation between leq

Road traffic noise and cardiovascular disease
International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, 1979In a population study, an attempt was made to answer the question whether people living in a street with much traffic (noise) run an increased risk of contracting cardiovascular diseases.
