background: noise is one of the most important harmful agents in work environment. noise pollution in oil refinery industries is related to workers' health. this study aimed to determine the overall noise pollution of an oil refinery operation and its frequency analysis to determine the control plan for a vent noise in these industries. methods: this experimental study performed in control unit...

results according to the study results, noise levels in a co2 plant’s house and control room ranged from 88 to 102 db and 79 to 82 db (a), respectively. in order to reduce the amount of emitted noise in the co2 plant house and control room, a noise control plan was implemented in each part of the facility; it was met with effective results. conclusions the findings of this investigation have cl...

in recent years, need to increase the convenience of trips in railway vehicles causes that train operators and manufacturers focus on reducing the noise level which is sensed by passengers. in this paper, first the state of modeling acoustic noise in cab train is discussed and natural frequencies and acoustic mode shapes are derived and then formulation of acoustic pressure in the cab will be o...

background and aims: since using city power for welding process is not allowed, diesel generators are used as a power supply in construction industries. they could be introduced as a main source of noise pollution. the purposes of this study were to assess and control noise pollution produced by construction diesel generators in hamadan, iran. methods: in this descriptive, cross-sectional study...

this paper is mainly focused on noise pollution problems related to the use of wind turbines. the installed turbines are vestas v52 and the farm map under study is a typical rural area in south italy, in which a wind farm has been recently installed and made operative. since the area is rural and the number of vehicles per hour is negligible, noise emitted by roads does not affect the predictio...

in many active noise control (anc) applications, an online secondary pathmodelling method that uses a white noise as a training signal is required. this paperproposes a new feedback anc system. here we modified both the fxlms and thevss-lms algorithms to raised noise attenuation and modelling accuracy for theoverall system. the proposed algorithm stops injection of the white noise at theoptimum...

background: noise pollution is currently a major risk factor in industries in both developed and developing countries . the present study assessed noise pollution in the knitting industry in iran in 2009 and presented a control method to reduce the rate of noise generation. methods: the overall noise level was estimated using the network environmental noise assessment method in sina poud textil...

this paper tries to determine efficiency of noise control method using fuzzy logic and based on collected data. from among various methods of noise control in workplace, sex methods (enclosure, installing noise absorber, enclosure and absorber, active, and administrative control, and personal protective equipment) were typically selected based on experts' judgment. for each of selected control ...

background: noise pollution is currently a major health risk factor for workers in industries. the aim of this study was to investigate noise pollution and implement a control intervention plan for blast furnace in a steel industry. methods: the measurement of sound pressure level (spl) along with frequency analysis was done with the sound-level-meter cell-450 . personal noise exposure was perf...
