Perception of urban park soundscape.
A number of studies have been initiated to explore how to improve the soundscape quality in urban parks. However, good soundscape quality in parks cannot be provided without a thorough understanding of the complex relationships among sound, environment, and individuals. As acoustic comfort is considered to be an important outcome of soundscape quality, this study investigates the relative impac...
متن کاملSilent Soundwalking: an urban pedestrian soundscape methodology
Acousticians have industriously devised and refined metrics for measuring and predicting human responses to environmental noise such as sons, phons, noys, NC, NR, dB(A) dB(C), Leq, Ldn, and when rigorously applied in ISO standards offer effective reproducibility and repeatability, but they fall short when it comes to charting the vicissitudes of everyday listening and the communication of that ...
متن کاملA computational auditory attention model for urban soundscape design
Urban soundscape design aims to create outdoor spaces with a pleasant sonic environment, and is of special interest where noise level abatement is not feasible or only has a limited effect. A possible approach is to mask unpleasant sounds by adding other sounds that can be considered as desirable by the users of the space. In this context, not only energetic masking but also informational maski...
متن کاملImitating Human Auditory Processing for Urban Soundscape Measurement
Intelligent measurement nodes offer the opportunity to perform advanced soundscape analysis, instead of just logging the sound pressure level. A model which mimics human auditory system is proposed and applied to analyze urban soundscapes. It is constructed as a combination of two types of neural networks: a Self Organizing Map that allows –after extensive training– to identify cooccurring soun...
متن کاملFirst Specifications of an Information System for Urban Soundscape
Sounds are very important in our daily life with a twofold attitude for any citizen. In one hand, when music, sounds are considered as enhancing the quality of life, but in the other hand, traffic noise deteriorates the quality of life. Due to those contradictory characteristics, the new concept of soundscape tries to combine both positive and negative aspects of the auditory environment. Prese...
