The passage discusses the effects of noise exposure on human health, cognition, and behavior. Noise pollution has become an increasingly serious issue in modern society with urbanization and industrialization. Excessive noise can negatively impact the quality of life and wellbeing. However, humans have...
This chapter discusses sound sources and sound propagation, effects of excessive noise, hearing loss, hearing protection regulations, and noise control and reduction.doi:10.1142/9789811222603_0010S. Y. LeeIndiana University, USAFundamental Physics of Sound...
1.In fact, noise pollution can cause just as many damaging effects on people's health as other forms of pollution. 事实上,噪声污染给人类健康带来的危害跟其他形式的污染是一样多的。 2.Exposure to excessive noise can cause hearing loss,stress,lack of sleep,irritability,indigestion,heartburn,high ...
This study provides most appropriate definition of noise, identifies various sources of noise, investigates awareness level of public for noise, examines harmful effects of excessive noise and provides valuable suggestions for controlling the noise level. Methodology - This study is based on primary ...
From the testing of 5,249 children, those who are constantly exposed to excessive noise may have trouble in 16 sound discrimination. The effects of sound don’t stop with the ears, exposure to noise may lead to the unease of 17 a in healthy people. Europe has taken steps on the noise ...
Excessive noise impairs healthcare professionals’ cognitive abilities, making it harder to think clearly, concentrate and perform complex tasks3. As a growing body of evidence reveals the damaging impacts of noise pollution, it’s important that we respond. Good acoustic designs that absorb sound ...
This paper provides an overview of effects of noise on the hearing system. Animal research has shown that excessive noise exposure results in decrease of blood flow in stria vascularis, alteration in permeability of ions in reticular lamina, swelling/rupture of hair cells, disarrangement or loss ...
Objective: Excessive noise is unpleasant and induces several physiological and psychological effects. Noise pollution is a potential threat to humans, particularly those continuously exposed for extended periods throughout the day over many years. This review aims to examine the various auditory and non...
urban planning and their effectiveness is enhanced by new standards that characterize sound propagation outdoors, Regulations that control motor vehicle noise at the source have, as yet, produced only limited benefits, while highway barriers provide some relief from excessive exposure to traffic noise....
The workers studied had a history of exposure both to excessive noise levels (86-89 dBA) and to excessive levels of carbon disulfide (89.92 mg/m3). The percentage of hearing loss found was much higher than expected for this occupational activity, which reinforced the possible connection between...
