An Open Source Noise Calculation Toolkit for Acoustics
(2017)Many Acoustic Engineers today use custom spreadsheets or custom functions to perform their calculations to further enhance the speed and reliability of their calculations. This offers benefits over manually entering tables ... -
An overview of structure-radiated noise and vibration assessment for elevated rail infrastructure
(2017)Elevated rail infrastructure has potential to cause structure-radiated noise and vibration concerns during rail op-erations to the neighbouring community. In this paper, an overview of a structure-radiated noise and vibration ... -
Passive and active acoustic monitoring of mulloway in the Swan River
(2017)Passive acoustic monitoring is a standard tool to monitor vocal marine fauna. High-frequency multibeam echosounders have developed rapidly in recent years, with the number of applications for detecting and tracking ... -
Perception and Use of Trainable Hearing Aids by Clinicians and Hearing Aid Users and Candidates
(2016)Aims Trainable hearing aids, which enable users to fine-tune their own settings in real-life environments, have been commercially available since 2006. Currently, there is no information available about their impact. This ... -
Performance evaluation of a shock wave-based method for supersonic bullet trajectory estimation
(2017)The supersonic flight of a bullet generates a ballistic shock wave (SW). As the bullet is subjected to both drag and gravity, its speed decreases with the distance travelled and its trajectory is more or less curvilinear. ... -
Predicting and managing rolling noise emissions from trains on the Perth metro passenger rail network
(2017)This paper presents an investigation of rolling noise emissions from trains operating on the Perth electrified passenger network, as an outcome of the Public Transport Authority's strategic initiatives in noise management. ... -
Predictors of noise exposure in construction workers
(2017)Construction workers are exposed to hazardous noise from a wide variety of tools and equipment. This study aims to determine the workplace tasks associated with being exposed to occupational construction noise above the ... -
Propagation of underwater noise from an offshore seismic survey in Australia to Antarctica: measurements and modelling
(2017)An offshore seismic survey was conducted over the western edge of the continental shelf in Bass Strait in 2006. Underwater noise from this survey was recorded on an autonomous sound recorder deployed in the Southern Ocean ... -
Quantitative analysis on the environmental impact benefits from the bandwidth-controlled marine seismic source technology
(2017)A new marine seismic surveying source technology (eSource) has recently been developed based on physical control of the bandwidth of the source elements (Coste et al., 2014). The objective of the new seismic source is to ... -
Setting noise objectives for outdoor events at the Sydney Opera House
(2017)Unwanted music from outdoor events is considered a form of noise pollution which presents a unique set of challenges for regulators when compared to other environmental noise sources. Unlike noise generated by sources such ... -
Sound radiation from the open end of pipes and ducts in the presence of mean flow
(2017)The radiation of sound from the open end of pipes and ducts is a common problem in environmental noise control. Examples include radiation from ductwork in heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems, noise ...
