Association between transportation noise and blood pressure in adults living in multi-storey residential buildings

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2019
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that transportation noise is associated with blood pressure and hypertension, but little is known about its relationship in the adults living in multi-storey residential buildings, where neighbour noise is ...

Transportation-cost inequalities for diffusions driven by Gaussian processes

open access: yes, 2016
We prove transportation-cost inequalities for the law of SDE solutions driven by general Gaussian processes. Examples include the fractional Brownian motion, but also more general processes like bifractional Brownian motion.

Spatial assessment of the attributable burden of disease due to transportation noise in England

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2023
Background: Noise pollution from transportation is one of the leading contributors to the environmental disease burden in Europe. We provide a novel assessment of spatial variations of these health impacts within a country, using England as an example ...

Understanding Behavioral Responses of Wildlife to Traffic to Improve Mitigation Planning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Creating and maintaining sustainable transportation systems depends in part on understanding and mitigating ecological impacts. Wildlife crossing structures (WCS) are often used to mitigate impacts on wildlife populations. WCS and existing structures may

Insulating buildings against transportation noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Transportation noise contains significant low frequency components. It is difficult to sound insulate buildings against transportation noise because wall cavities are only effective in increasing sound insulation above the mass-air-mass resonance ...

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

open access: yesAerospace, 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.

Decoherence of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen pairs in a noisy Andreev entangler

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate quantum noise effect on the transportation of nonlocal Cooper pairs accross the realistic Andreev entangler which consists of an s-wave superconductor coupled to two small quantum dots at resonance which themselves are coupled to normal ...

Review of measured vibration and noise environments experienced by passengers in aircraft and in ground transportation systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Measured vibration and interior noise data are presented for a number of air and surface vehicles. Consideration is given to the importance of direction effects; of vehicle operations such as take-off, cruise, and landing; and of measurement location on ...
