background: educational centers have higher standards for controlling noise pollution as it has been shown that noise pollution is a major cause of discomfort for teachers and students. noise pollution reduces concentration, interferes in the conversation, and leads to dropouts and lower grades especially in mathematics. the present study aimed to evaluate noise pollution in the schools of birj...

in recent years noise has been well known as an environmental pollution. particularly its effects will be more serious in some environments including hospitals which patients need a calm and peaceful condition. this study aims to evaluate hospitals noise pollution level. this study is a cross-sectional study. noise measurements were made in all hospital wards in a workday and weekend from 8 to ...

  Background: Educational centers have higher standards for controlling noise pollution as it has been shown that noise pollution is a major cause of discomfort for teachers and students. Noise pollution reduces concentration, interferes in the conversation, and leads to dropouts and lower grades especially in mathematics. The present study aimed to evaluate noise pollution in the schools ...

introduction: among the environmental pollutions, noise is very important for its physiological  and psychological effects on human. traffic noise is one of the most important pollutants and the  hospitals  are  one  of  the  critical  places  regarding  this  type  of  noise.  for  these  reasons,  in  the  summer  of  1382,  the  traffic  noise  of  mashhad  main  streets  around  the  hospit...

Background: Noise pollution is one of the most important environmental pollutions that affects human health in different dimensions. The current study aimed to survey the effects of noise pollution on residents of the Samen district in Mashhad. Methods: To understand the psychological effects that noise pollution caused by vehicles has on people, 400 questionnaires designed to gather demograph...

background: noise pollution can contribute to adverse health effects in humans. noise annoyance and related problems, caused by noise emission during the progress of building construction, have become increasingly important. these problems can influence the exposed workers, as well as vicinity residents. the goal of the present study was to assess the noise annoyance due to noise from construct...

noise is defined as unwanted or objectionable sound. human susceptibility to noise varies in terms of intensity, altitude, timbre of sound, personal sensibility, age, and history of ear disorder. noise pollution which is the result of heterogeneous and uncontrolled developments of cities is one the serious problems in large cities of iran. although noise pollution in kerman (located in southeas...

large urban areas are facing growing problems of noise pollutions. geospatial information systems (gis) can conveniently be adapted to gather, analyze and present noise information. gis can also be extended to answer to user specific problems through deterministic and statistics models. the objectives of this research were to measure urban traffic noise levels, analyze temporal and spatial dyna...

conclusions atpl was higher in the post-monsoon season. w/s ratio and correlation analysis revealed interseasonal homogeneity of tmv and traffic noise levels and interseasonal heterogeneity of air pollutant concentrations and atpl in the city microenvironments. results atpl was 3.35 times higher in the post-monsoon and 1.83 times higher in the pre-monsoon season than the permissible limits pres...
