Assessment of Noise from Transportation Systems in Ilorin, Nigeria

Nigerian Journal of Technological Development, 2019
Noise from transportation systems is unavoidable in urban areas and can be harmful to human health. The noise generated by selected transportations systems in Ilorin, an urban area in central Nigeria, was studied by direct measurements and the use of ...

Relationship Analysis between Vegetation and Traffic Noise Pollution: A Case Study Lahore, Pakistan

International Journal of Economic and Environment Geology, 2021
The problem of exposure to traffic noise pollution is rapidly increasing day by day and is closely associated with the rapid industrialization and urbanization process taking place over the glob (Margaritis and Kang, 2016). Nowadays, more than 54% of the

Virtual Integration Platforms (VIP) –A Concept for Integrated and Interdisciplinary Air Transportation Research and Assessment [PDF]

, 2011
The paper descibes a new methodology for a holistic development of air transportation concepts. The Virtual Integration Plattform (VIP) concept is based on an IT tool chain as well as human collaborative methods to deal with complex systems.

Transportation noise and the cardiometabolic risk

Atherosclerosis
Transportation noise is a widespread and often underestimated environmental pollutant, posing a substantial health risk particularly in urban areas. In contrast to air pollution, the health effects of noise pollution are less extensively documented. Defined as an unwanted and/or harmful sound, noise pollution affects over 20 % of the European Union (EU)

Compressible Navier--Stokes System with Transport Noise

SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2022
We consider the barotropic Navier--Stokes system driven by a physically well-motivated transport noise in both continuity as well as momentum equation. We focus on three different situations: (i) the noise is smooth in time and the equations are understood as in the sense of the classical weak deterministic theory, (ii) the noise is rough in time and ...

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

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 ...

Deciphering transcriptional plasticity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma reveals alterations in sensory neuron innervation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic sensory neurons innervating healthy and PDAC tissue were retrogradely labeled and profiled by single‐cell RNA sequencing. Tumor‐associated innervation showed a dominant neurofilament‐positive subtype, altered mitochondrial gene signatures, and reduced non‐peptidergic neurons.

Adverse impact of nocturnal transportation noise on glucose regulation in healthy young adults: Effect of different noise scenarios

Environment International, 2018
Background: Epidemiological evidence indicates an association between transportation noise exposure and a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Sleep disturbances are thought to be one of the mechanisms as it is well established that a few nights of

Using a qualitative approach to explore the human response to vibration in residential environments in the United Kingdom [PDF]

, 2012
As a growing number of areas in the UK become ever more densely populated, increasing construction work is being undertaken and transportation networks built in order to cope with the growing population.
