Prediction of Noise Transmission Loss and Acoustic Comfort Assessment of a Ventilated Window using Statistical Energy Analysis
In this paper, a novel analytical method was developed based on statistical energy analysis framework to evaluate sound transmission loss through ventilated windows. The proposed method was compared to numerical and analytical models available in the literature. Results showed the success and advantage of the proposed model in predicting the acoustic performance of the ventilated window and the...

متن کاملThe Relation between Scores on Noise Annoyance and Noise Disturbed Sleep in a Public Health Survey
The relation between responses to survey questions on noise annoyance and self-reported sleep disturbance has been analysed to gain insight in its dependency on noise source or noise type and on individual characteristics. The results show a high correlation between responses (scores 0-10) with Pearson's correlation coefficient close to 0.8 for respondents who report hearing the source. At the ...
متن کاملNoise annoyance--a modifier of the association between noise level and cardiovascular health?
OBJECTIVES The effect modifying impact of annoyance due to aircraft noise and road traffic noise on the relationships between the aircraft noise level and road traffic noise level on the prevalence of hypertension was investigated in 4861 subjects of the HYENA study (HYpertension and Exposure to Noise near Airports). METHODS Different models were investigated either including the noise level ...
