Engineering controls isolate people from the noise hazard. Certain pieces of equipment help reduce the noise by enclosing or re-routing the path of noise from the source. A few examples of engineering controls include: Choosing low-noise machinery Maintaining and lubricating equipment and machinery Pl...

at predicting the hearing hazard of the large array of impulsive acoustic events to which people are exposed in the military and industry. The basic problem with the algorithm was that it was derived from linear relationships, whereas the dynamics of the cochlea exposed to intense impulses are ...
OSHA [105] summarized the hierarchy of noise control as: (1) preventing or containing the escape of the hazardous workplace agent at its source (engineering controls), (2) controlling exposure by changing work schedules to reduce the amount of time each worker spends in the hazard area (...
who served as the Surgeon General under both Lyndon B. Johnson and Nixon. In his keynote address at the 1968 Conference on Noise as a Public Health Hazard, in Washington, Stewart said, “Must we wait until we prove every link in the chain of causation?” and added, “In protecting heal...
“That could be useful in places where there’s a real seismic hazard (风险), like San Francisco or Los Angeles,” he said, “where just knowing what that shallow structure is tells you a lot about how it would respond in a big earthquake.”【1】How do the researchers obtain the data...

one is generally interested in assessing whether the additional noise generated by the wind turbines (relative to the ambient noise) might cause annoyance or a hazard to human health and well-being. Further complicating factors originate from the effects of multiple wind turbines together and the wa...
