conclusions due to the long exposure to the loud noise during the day, hearing loss in drivers is significant. the left ear displays greater loss than the right ear. therefore, strategies to prevent hearing loss in drivers could include education, lifestyle changes and compliance issues related to hearing health, use of personal protective equipment, conducting periodic examinations and early t...

original article     the aim of this study was to design and build a software for noise propagation prediction (indoor and from indoor to outdoor spaces) which is being commonly used in industry.  in this regard, firstly a mathematical complex model was created based on existing relationships about noise propagation in indoor spaces and transmission through the walls and propagation in outdoor ...

We investigated the issue of noise pollution in the Bidboland gas refineryby noise measurement and surveys. The Bidboland gas refinery has several process units.The sound pressure levels were measured at several places, such as units of 200, 300,400, 500, boiler, powerhouse area, cooling towers pumps, and maintenance area, and thecorresponding noise maps were produced by using sound plan softwa...

the aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between air, noise, light and landscape pollution on job stress of staff work in high schools of different districts (1, 2, 10 and 11) of tehran. this stress can reduce the efficiency of the personnel. the number of people participated in this research was 250, selected by random from different schools of the districts. the questionnair...

Background & Aims of the Study:  One of the most important harmful factors in big cities is noise, and traffic is regarded as the most important source of noise pollution. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the level of knowledge, attitude, and practice of people in Kermanshah, Iran, regarding the potential effects of noise pollution on their health. Materials and Methods: A researc...

background : noise pollution and workers' noise exposure are common in industrial factories in iran. in order to reduce this noise pollution, evaluation and investigation of noise emission are both necessary. in this study, different noise mapping methodsare used for determining the distribution of noise.   materials and methods : in the present study, for preparing a noise map in a hall o...

objective: the present experimental study was designed to investigate the elucidative effect of 50 days of noise stress on fertilization capacity of rat and subsequent offspring quality. material and methods: two groups of 10 male rats were placed in two control and experimental groups for 50 days. in the experimental group, 90-120 db sound intensity and frequency of 300-350 hz of the device (...
