Journal ArticleDOI
Perception and annoyance due to wind turbine noise : a dose–response relationship
TL;DR: The respondents' attitude to the visual impact of wind turbines on the landscape scenery was found to influence noise annoyance, showing higher proportion of people reporting perception and annoyance than expected from the present dose-response relationships for transportation noise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing noise and perceived work environment in a neurological intensive care unit.
TL;DR: This study provides a more thorough description of intensive care noise and aids in understanding how the sound environment may be disruptive to occupants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of nighttime low frequency noise on the cortisol response to awakening and subjective sleep quality
TL;DR: It is shown that night time exposure to LFN may affect the cortisol response upon wake up and that lower cortisol levels after awakening were associated with subjective reports of lower sleep quality and mood.
Journal Article
Low frequency noise "pollution" interferes with performance
TL;DR: The results suggest that the quality of work performance and perceived annoyance may be influenced by a continuous exposure to low frequency noise at commonly occurring noise levels and subjects categorised as high-sensitive to low Frequency noise may be at highest risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Influence of Freight Trains on Humans: A Laboratory Investigation of the Impact of Nocturnal Low Frequency Vibration and Noise on Sleep and Heart Rate
TL;DR: Nocturnal vibration has a negative impact on sleep and that the impact increases with greater vibration amplitude, therefore, it is necessary to define levels that protect residents against sleep disruptive vibrations that may arise from night time railway freight traffic.
