According to the great importance of safety in aerospace industries, identification of dynamic parameters of related equipment by experimental tests in operating conditions has been in focus. Due to the existence of noise sources in these conditions the probability of fault occurrence may increases. This study investigates the effects of noise in the process of modal parameters identification b...

BACKGROUND Many women are exposed daily to high levels of occupational and residential noise, so the effect of noise exposure on pregnancy should be considered because noise affects both the fetus and the mother herself. However, there is a controversy in the literature regarding the adverse effects of occupational and residential noise on pregnant women and their fetuses. AIM The aim of this...

conclusions exposure to formaldehyde vapor can destroy testicular structure and decrease percentages of sperm count and progressive motility. the present study indicated that a reduction in the percentage of progressive motile sperm may be potentiated by noise (700-5700 hz) in the simultaneous exposure to formaldehyde and noise group. thus, it can be anticipated that simultaneous exposure to fo...

BACKGROUND Tens of millions of Americans suffer from a range of adverse health outcomes due to noise exposure, including heart disease and hearing loss. Reducing environmental noise pollution is achievable and consistent with national prevention goals, yet there is no national plan to reduce environmental noise pollution. OBJECTIVES We aimed to describe some of the most serious health effects...

INTRODUCTION Environmental noise pollution increases the risk for hearing loss, stress, sleep disruption, annoyance, and cardiovascular disease and has other adverse health impacts. Recent (2013) estimates suggest that more than 100 million Americans are exposed to unhealthy levels of noise. Given the pervasive nature and significant health effects of environmental noise pollution, the correspo...

Environmental noise is one of the critical issues for observation gravitational waves, but difficult to predict in advance. Therefore, evaluate adverse impact environmental on detector sensitivity, understanding response actual setup crucial, both and future upgrades. In this paper, we introduce verify a new method injection test based post-observation commissioning KAGRA. This (response functi...

We propose a robust microphone array for speech enhancement and noise suppression. To overcome target signal cancellation problem of conventional beamformes caused by array imperfections or reverberation effects, the proposed method adopts arbitrary transfer function relating each microphone and target speech signal as array channel model. This is achieved in two ways. First, we propose a metho...
