Measurement of noise events in road traffic streams: initial results from a simulation study [PDF]
, 2016 A key question for road traffic noise management is whether prediction of human response to noise, including sleep quality, could be improved over the use of conventional energy equivalent, or percentile, measures, by accounting for noise events in road ...

Bioinspired Stabilization of Fluorescent Au@SiO2 Tracers for Multimodal Biological Imaging
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates a bioinspired stabilization strategy for fluorescent gold‐silica nanoparticles. Inspired by natural biosilica maturation, high‐temperature calcination transforms the silica shells, preventing dissolution in cell culture media and intracellular environments.

Noise event measures for road traffic [PDF]
, 2017 How should noise events in road traffic noise be measured? This paper reports the performance of a set of algorithms that detect noise events in time histories of road traffic noise in the population of acoustic conditions found near roadways. The latter

Stated choice valuation of traffic related noise [PDF]
, 2006 This paper reports a novel application of the stated choice method to the valuation of road traffic noise. The innovative context used is that of choice between apartments with different levels of traffic noise, view, sunlight and cost with which ...

Fuzzy TOPSIS Approach in Selection of Optimal Noise Barrier for Traffic Noise Abatement
Archives of Acoustics, 2015 The paper presents a retrospective study for selection of noise barrier for road traffic noise abatement. The work proposes the application of Fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution) approach is selection of ...

Cardiovascular and metabolic effects of long-term traffic noise exposure [PDF]
, 2012 Traffic noise is an increasingly common environmental exposure affecting large parts of the European population. Since the auditory system is directly linked to the sympathetic nervous and the endocrine systems, noise may induce a stress response ...

Comparison of Road Traffic Noise prediction models: CNOSSOS-EU, Nord2000 and TRANEX.
Environmental Pollution, 2020 Road traffic noise is the most pervasive source of ambient outdoor noise pollution in Europe. Traffic noise prediction models vary in parameterisation and therefore may produce different estimates of noise levels depending on the geographical setting in ...
