Calum Sharp

TL;DR: It was found that annoyance scores were strongly influenced by two attitudinal factors: Concern of property damage and expectations about future levels of vibration, which indicate that future railway vibration policies and regulations focusing on community impact need to consider additional factors for an optimal assessment of railway effects on residential environments.

TL;DR: The results indicate that people are able to distinguish between freight and passenger railway vibration, and that the annoyance response due to freight railway vibration is significantly higher than that due to passenger railway vibrations, even for equal levels of exposure.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of wheat properties on breakage during first break roller milling, as described by the Double Normalized Kumaraswamy Breakage Function (DNKBF), were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the impact of railway noise and vibration on the human response to vibration in residential environments and found that neglecting vibrations results in an underestimation of people highly annoyed by railway noise.

TL;DR: The presented combined data set provides a first set of exposure response relationships for vibration-induced sleep disturbance, which are useful when considering public health outcomes among exposed populations.
