Operational and geological parameters in the assessing blast induced airblast-overpressure in quarries
TL;DR: In this article, modified scaled distances (SDs) based on empirical equations considering such factors as blasting parameters and geological parameters of rock mass for bench blasting in quarries were used to obtain an environmentally friendly and technically practicable results by using site specific SDs instead of conservative SD values.

Nose Shape Optimization of High-speed Train for Minimization of Tunnel Sonic Boom
TL;DR: In this article, the nose shape of the train has been optimized by using the response surface methodology and the axi-symmetric compressible Euler equations, and the parametric studies are also performed with respect to the slenderness ratio, the blockage ratio and the train speed to investigate their sensitivities to the optimization results.

Study of the discharge of weak shocks from an open end of a duct
Heuy Dong Kim,Toshiaki Setoguchi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of a baffle plate, installed at the duct exit, on the impulse wave was investigated both experimentally and by numerical calculation, and the results were in good agreement with the results of numerical calculations.

Characterizing perceived aspects of adverse impact of noise on construction managers on construction sites
TL;DR: Individual noise sensitivity appears to have the most significant influence on the adverse impacts of noise on annoyance, work performance, work safety, and speech interference in construction sites.

Near field impulsive source localization in a noisy environment
Young-Chul Choi,Yang-Hann Kim +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a signal processing method that can identify an impulsive sources location is proposed, which is robust with respect to noise; a spatially distributed noise is used to localize the sources in noisy environments.
