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 ... -
Statistical properties of urban noise – results of a long term monitoring program
(2017)High levels of noise pollution in urban areas have a detrimental effect on the health and quality of life of the affected population. Variations in environmental noise levels generally represent a random process affected ... -
A study on partial enclosures for noise control
(2017)Partial enclosures are widely used to reduce noise radiation while keeping ventilation, lighting and easy access through openings at the same time. However, because of the complexity of the sound field around partial ... -
Target tracking using seabed based passive acoustic arrays
(2017)Passive sonar systems are a key sensor type for anti-submarine warfare, used to detect acoustic energy emit-ted by surface or subsurface sources. These systems typically provide bearing detections from targets that are ... -
Tele audiology a recipe for success
