TLDR
Over the past 30 years, research into environmental noise and sleep has focused on different situations and environments, and therefore the findings are variable, but it still seems necessary for some fundamental questions to be answered on whether environmental noise has long-term detrimental effects on health and quality of life and, if so, what these effects are for night-time, noise-exposed populations.About:

TL;DR: An assessment model based on the combined effects of physiological activities in electrocardiography and electroencephalography was proposed to index a driver’s noise annoyance level and ability to adapt to a noisy working environment and individuals with an unqualified mental status for shield tunneling machine operation can be excluded to avoid potential operational risks.

A Weighted Linear Least Squares Location Method of an Acoustic Emission Source without Measuring Wave Velocity
TL;DR: A novel weighted linear least squares location method for AE sources without measuring wave velocity is proposed, and the results show that the locating accuracy of the proposed method is significantly higher than that of traditional methods.

Self-reported sleep disturbances in employed women.
TL;DR: There were higher incidences of sleep disturbances and excessive sleepiness for women working night and rotating shifts, but age and family factors, rather than caffeine and alcohol intake, contributed to the differences in types ofSleep disturbances these women experienced.

Aircraft noise and mental health: I. Prevalence of individual symptoms.
TL;DR: Many acute symptoms showed an increase with noise, and this was particularly evident for waking at night, irritability, depression, difficulty in getting to sleep, swollen ankles, burns/cuts/minor accidents, and skin troubles.
