Description: Neurally Based Measurement and Evaluation of Environmental Noise by Yoshiharu Soeta, Yoichi Ando This book deals with methods of measurement and evaluation of environmental noise based on an auditory neural and brain-oriented model. Several examples of measuring environmental noise—from outdoor noise such as that of aircraft, traffic, and trains, and indoor noise such as caused by floor impact, toilets, and air-conditioning—are demonstrated. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This book deals with methods of measurement and evaluation of environmental noise based on an auditory neural and brain-oriented model. The model consists of the autocorrelation function (ACF) and the interaural cross-correlation function (IACF) mechanisms for signals arriving at the two ear entrances. Even when the sound pressure level of a noise is only about 35 dBA, people may feel annoyed due to the aspects of sound quality. These aspects can be formulated by the factors extracted from the ACF and IACF. Several examples of measuring environmental noise—from outdoor noise such as that of aircraft, traffic, and trains, and indoor noise such as caused by floor impact, toilets, and air-conditioning—are demonstrated. According to the noise measurement and evaluation, applications for sound design are discussed. This book provides an excellent resource for students, researchers, and practitioners in a wide range of fields, such as the automotive, railway, and electronics industries, andsoundscape, architecture, and acoustics.

(Heinrich Metzen, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 64 (5), September-October, 2016)"This is a remarkable book concerning the EEG, EVP, and Psychophysics of human hearing and the human volunteer of psychophysics in the auditory system in general. … This is a great book about noise physiology and auditory psychophysics for students, research fellows, researchers, audiologists, and experimental sensory physiologists. … This is a good desk reference for audition researchers."
