MODERN METHODS FOR NOISE CONTROL
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Acoustics and Vibration - Year 2012, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Noise can be defined as unwanted sound. There are many cases and applications that reducing noise level is of great importance. Loss of hearing is only one of the effects of continuous exposure to excessive noise levels. Noise can interfere with sleep and speech, and cause discomfort and other non-auditory effects. Moreover, high level noise and vibration lead to structural failures as well as reduction in life span in many industrial equipments. As an example in control valves, the vibration caused by flow instability occasionally defects the feedback to the control system and resulting in extreme oscillations. The importance of noise issue could be well understood by looking at regulations that have been passed by governments to restrict noise production in society. Industrial machinery, air/surface transportation and construction activities are assumed to be main contributors in noise production or so called "noise pollution".
