it is accepted that noise pollution has a major impact on health, such as physical, physiological, psychological and performance related effects, all over the world. this study aims to evaluate noise pollution in four urban parks located in sanandaj city, iran and to zone it in gis environment. sound pressure level (spl) and maximum sound level (lmax) were measured at 45 points (each point was ...

oroginal article tiller is a handy multi – a purpose tractor is used in agriculture. the noise emitted from tiller may be seriously affected auditory system users. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the exposure to noise in operators of this device. in this study 36cultivator tiller was examined. measurement of sound is based in iso 5131-1996 and iso 7216 standard and was conducted in in...

Noise is one of the most important sources of pollution in the metropolitan areas. The recognition of road traffic noise as one of the main sources of environmental pollution has led to develop models that enable us to predict noise level from fundamental variables. Traffic noise prediction models are required as aids in the design of roads and sometimes in the assessment of existing, or envisa...

background exposure to the excessive levels of occupational noise is one of the principal harmful agents affecting the workers’ health. this study aimed to investigate the relationship between the occupational noise exposure and the hearing loss caused by working in small-scale service industries in the city of damavand, close to the metropolitan capital city of tehran, iran. methods this descr...

OBJECTIVES Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is costly in both human and economic terms. One means of reducing NIHL is to apply engineering controls to hazardous noise sources. To trade off the cost of engineering controls against the total direct monetary costs incurred by NIHL, a means of predicting the amount of NIHL that will be incurred over the life-cycle of a hazardous noise source is ne...

to assess the environmental radioactivity levels and hence to determine the population exposure in kutubdia island, bangladesh the sediment samples were analyzed by using gamma ray spectrometry. in those sediment samples the average activity concentration of natural radionuclides 238u, 232th and 40k were found 15.39±1.67, 38.35±0.76 and 475.51±21.15 bq/kg respectively. the activity concentratio...

This paper involves utilizing an Arduino Uno as the primary hardware to measure sound level in a library. The amount of noise region is measured using sensor. sensor signals are amplified operational amplifier function integrated circuit LM 567. There two types output available: audio and visual. takes form personalized message that played over speakers. LEDs employed offer visual feedback, wit...
