Abstract Study Objectives Assess the physiologic and self-reported effects of wind turbine
noise (WTN) on sleep. Methods Laboratory sleep study (n= 50 participants: n= 24 living …

The investigation of the influence of soil-structure coupling on the vibration propagation
pattern is the key to ensuring the reliability of the prediction of train-induced building …

The number of onshore wind turbines in Europe has greatly increased over recent years, a
trend which can be expected to continue. However, the effects of wind turbine noise on long …

Control of noise and vibration induced by railway traffic is one of the most prominent
environmental challenges. Ground-borne noise and vibration play a crucial role in heavily …

The numerical assessment of the dynamic response of buildings exposed to railway traffic
usually requires advanced numerical models that take into account the three-dimensional …

The freight train-induced vibrations and noise generate increasing environmental problems
owing to its heavier axle loads and longer pass-by duration. To develop useful mitigation …

Aiming at the multiple-input multiple-output vibration problem in rail transit, this paper
presents a novel method for obtaining transfer characteristics of vehicle-induced vibrations …

Humans spend a third of their lives asleep. While the sleep-wake behaviors are primarily
modulated by homeostasis and circadian rhythm, several ambient chemical and physical …
