Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) Web-Only Document 17: Research Methods for Understanding Aircraft Noise Annoyances and Sleep Disturbance explores the development and validation of a research protocol for a large-scale study of aircraft noise exposure-annoyance response relationships across the U.S. The report also highlights alternative research methods for field studies to assess the relationship between aircraft noise and sleep disturbance for U.S. airports.-- Publisher's note.

Book Field Studies of Habituation to Change in Nighttime Aircraft Noise and of Sleep Motility Measurement Methods

Download or read book Field Studies of Habituation to Change in Nighttime Aircraft Noise and of Sleep Motility Measurement Methods written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A field study of habituation to aircraft noise-induced sleep disturbance was conducted near DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (PDK), a large general aviation airport north of Atlanta, Georgia. Increased aircraft operations were expected in nighttime hours due to the Olympic Games in Atlanta in July/August 1996. Indoor and outdoor measurements of aircraft and other nighttime noises were made in 12 homes in a community north of PDK for a period of approximately 6 weeks, beginning 2-1/2 weeks prior to the Olympics and ending one week after their conclusion. Sleep disturbance information suitable for analysis was measured during 686 subject-nights by self-report, behaviorally-confirmed awakening (button pushes upon awakening) and sleep motility (via a wrist-worn recording accelerometer). No major differences were noted in sleep disturbance during or after the Olympics. Inclusion of data from all time periods with results of prior studies did not affect a prior dosage-response relationship between awakening and sound exposure level. A subsequent study involving an additional 117 subject-nights was undertaken to compare the sensitivity and interpretability of sleep motility measurements made in analysis epochs ranging from 2 to 30 seconds in duration. The pattern of findings of the methodological study revealed little benefit of analyzing motility measurements in short duration epochs.

Book Handbook of Noise and Vibration Control

Download or read book Handbook of Noise and Vibration Control written by Malcolm J. Crocker and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-10-05 with total page 1594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two of the most acclaimed reference works in the area of acoustics in recent years have been our Encyclopedia of Acoustics, 4 Volume set and the Handbook of Acoustics spin-off. These works, edited by Malcolm Crocker, positioned Wiley as a major player in the acoustics reference market. With our recently published revision of Beranek & Ver's Noise and Vibration Control Engineering, Wiley is a highly respected name in the acoustics business. Crocker's new handbook covers an area of great importance to engineers and designers. Noise and vibration control is one largest areas of application of the acoustics topics covered in the successful encyclopedia and handbook. It is also an area that has been under-published in recent years. Crocker has positioned this reference to cover the gamut of topics while focusing more on the applications to industrial needs. In this way the book will become the best single source of need-to-know information for the professional markets.

Book Noise Induced Sleep Disturbance in Residences Near Two Civil Airports

Download or read book Noise Induced Sleep Disturbance in Residences Near Two Civil Airports written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large-scale field study of noise-induced sleep disturbance was conducted in the vicinities of Stapleton International Airport (DEN) and Denver International Airport (DIA) in anticipation of the closure of the former and opening of the latter. Both indoor and outdoor measurements of aircraft and other nighttime noises were made during four time periods. Measurements were made in 57 homes located as close as feasible to the runway ends of the two airports. Sleep disturbance was measured by several indices of behaviorally confirmed awakening (button pushes upon awakening) and body movement (as measured with wrist-worn actimeters). A total of 2717 subject-nights of observations were made over the course of the study. Although average noise event levels measured outdoors decreased markedly at DEN after closure of the airport and increased slightly at DIA after its opening, indoor noise event levels varied much less in homes near both airports. No large differences were observed in noise-induced sleep disturbance at either airport. Indoor sound exposure levels of noise events were, however, closely related to and good predictors of actimetrically defined motility and arousal.
