Journal ArticleDOI
Annoyance reactions from aircraft noise exposure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an investigation on annoyance due to aircraft noise exposure and demonstrate that the extent of annoyance reactions in an exposed population is closely correlated to the noise level of single overflights.
Journal ArticleDOI
Traffic noise exposure and annoyance reactions
TL;DR: In this article, the relation between annoyance and exposure to traffic noise was studied in areas exposed to different levels of city traffic noise, and the annoyance was evaluated as the percent very annoyed in population samples of about eighty persons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aircraft noise annoyance contours: Importance of overflight frequency and noise level
TL;DR: In this paper, social survey studies to assess the presence of general annoyance and activity disturbances were made in 38 areas around 9 airports and the noise exposure was expressed as the number of overflights/24 hours and the dB(A) level from the noisiest aircraft type.
Journal ArticleDOI
Re-analysis of aircraft noise annoyance data against the dB(A) peak concept
TL;DR: In this article, a re-analysis program has been undertaken to determine the relation between annoyance to aircraft noise and noise exposure expressed as the dB(A) peak value, and a high correlation was demonstrated between noise exposure and the mean effect in the population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sonic boom effects on sleep—A field experiment on military and civilian populations
TL;DR: In this article, sleep interference due to sonic boom exposure was studied in a field experiment involving military and civilian populations, where a test area with military recruits lodged in barracks and a surrounding civilian population was overflown on irregular days at 0425 hours.
