Abstract Noise has become one of the most critical problems to address in contemporary cities, and awareness consequences noise pollution been increasing lately. Road traffic exposure is considered a serious environmental health hazard, as excessive increases cardiovascular diseases anxiety. People spend their time residences where they tolerant noisy environments are unaware effects caused by ...

This work presents results of ab-initio simulations of continuous wave transport in disordered absorbing waveguides. Wave interference effects cause deviations from diffusive picture of wave transport and make the diffusion coefficient position- and absorption-dependent. As a consequence, the true limit of a zero diffusion coefficient is never reached in an absorbing random medium of infinite s...

We present the temperature dependence of absorption and reduced scattering coefficients of 1.8% Intralipid measured by frequency-domain photon-migration spectroscopy between 710 and 850 nm. These measurements were made in the physiologically relevant 30 to 40 degrees C temperature range. The temperature coefficients for absorption were consistent during heating and cooling and follow closely ot...
