the equivalent noise level in large cities has been growing due to the population growth, uncontrolled production of cars, and the existence of worn out cars. on the other hand, heavy traffic has increased the amount of noise problems for residents of medical and educational centers, research institutes and residential area (or sensitive centers to noise) built in highway bounds and it has also...

abstract- noise is considered as one of the most debilitating conditions in farming operations. in this study, a number of factors affecting the noise generated by sampo 3065 combine harvesters were evaluated. factors were engine speed and gear ratio for combines with and without original cabins. a factorial experiment arranged as a completely randomized design with four replicates was used. re...

background: to prevent the adverse health effects of noise pollution and to achieve the recommended standards, assessment of noise levels in the cities is essential. the aim of this study was to evaluate noise pollution levels (npls) in isfahan, iran and compare them with recommended standard values. materials and methods: a total number of 19 measurement points were selected from most congeste...

measurement and analysis of noise level in various frequency bands was carried out in a textile factory. it was shown that the noise level in various working places, particularly in the weaving workshop, was quite excessive comparing to the standards and so, it may very likely result in producing hearing loss in the workers. to determine the hearing loss of the workers due to excessive noise, 1...

it is accepted that noise pollution has a major impact on health, such as physical, physiological, psychological and performance related effects, all over the world. this study aims to evaluate noise pollution in four urban parks located in sanandaj city, iran and to zone it in gis environment. sound pressure level (spl) and maximum sound level (lmax) were measured at 45 points (each point was ...
