Over the past decades, the improvement of the quality of buildings regarding sound
insulation has made it possible to reduce noise exposure. But this improvement has led to …

The aim of this paper is to present an overview of the research concerning human response
to vibration conducted in the EU FP7 CargoVibes project. The European Union-funded …

Studies in the literature suggest that factors influencing soundscape perception are based
heavily on sound environments and auditory perception. Nevertheless, in studying the …

The aim of this study was to investigate factors that may explain annoyance from noise
