1. 11. Traffic noise and cardiovascular disease

   Författare :Jenny Selander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Traffic noise is an increasing problem in urban areas worldwide, but health effects in relation to traffic noise exposure are not well understood. Several studies show that noise may give rise to acute stress reactions, possibly leading to cardiovascular effects, but the evidence is limited on cardiovascular risks associated with traffic noise exposure.

3. 12. Noise emissions from sustainable transport : A multi-scale modeling approach

   Författare :Johan Nygren; Susann Boij; Romain Rumpler; Ciarán J. O'Reilly; Eoin King; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Traffic simulation; sustainable transport; environmental noise; vehicle acoustics; energy efficiency; Trafiksimulering; hållbar transport; samhällsbuller; fordonsakustik; energieffektivitet; Farkostteknik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Noise emissions from transportation remain one of the greatest environmental issues of modern day. Inhabitants in urban environments are especially exposed, with almost 80 million people in the European Union exposed to noise levels exceeding the recommended limits set by the World Health Organization (WHO).

4. 13. Modelling of Dynamic Contact - Exemplified on the Tyre/Road Interaction

   Författare :Krister Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tyre dynamics; rolling noise; rolling contact; dynamic contact; tyre road noise; tyre road interaction;

   Sammanfattning : Noise is a severe problem in modern society. Road traffic noise is a substantial contributor and the tyre/road interaction is the main noise source for normal driving conditions. Despite more than 30 years of research, there is a lack of quantitative tyre/road noise prediction models. LÄS MER

5. 14. Non-Exhaust PM10 and Road Dust

   Författare :Joacim Lundberg; Sigurdur Erlingsson; Mats Gustafsson; Sara Janhäll; Göran Blomqvist; Brynhild Snilsberg; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Road Dust; Abrasion Wear; Road Surface Macro Texture; Mean Profile Depth; Mean Texture Depth; Emissions; Abrasion Wear Model; NORTRIP; PM10; Air Quality; Particles; Vägdamm; Vägslitage; Dubbslitage; Textur; Emissioner; Slitagemodell; NORTRIP; PM10; Partiklar; Luftkvalitet; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering; 15 Road: Environment;

   Sammanfattning : Non-exhaust PM10 is an issue in the urban environment linked to health issues. Emissions of non-exhaust PM10 is relatable to pavement properties. Also of importance is resuspension of road dust stored from surfaces. This depends on the traffic and metrological conditions. LÄS MER

7. 15. Air pollution and dementia in a low exposure setting : the role of noise, olfaction, and theapoe gene

   Författare :John Andersson; Maria Nordin; Anna Oudin; Anna Sundström; Tom Russ; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Air pollution; Road traffic; NOx; dementia; APOE; Alzheimer’s disease; Apolipoprotein E; olfaction; particulate matter; vascular dementia; odor identification; odor detection; Psychology; psykologi;

   Sammanfattning : Previous research indicates an association between air pollution exposure, and risk of dementia. Still, a number of factors that may play a role in this association remain to be explored. LÄS MER
