Vos, J. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author)In a laboratory study, the indoor annoyance caused by the sound produced by aircraft during the takeoff on the runway is investigated. This aircraft sound is dominated by relatively high sound levels in the 16 and 31.5 Hz octave bands. Road-traffic and passenger railway sounds, which lack high sound levels in these octave bands, are included as...article 2022

(author)The dodo Raphus cucullatus Linnaeus, 1758, an extinct and flightless, giant pigeon endemic to Mauritius, has fascinated people since its discovery, yet has remained surprisingly poorly known. Until the mid-19th century, almost all that was known about the dodo was based on illustrations and written accounts by 17th century mariners, often of...article 2015

Vos, J. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author), TNO Technische Menskunde (author)In the present study relations between the level of impulse sounds and the observed proportion of behaviorally confirmed awakening reactions were determined. The sounds (shooting sounds, bangs produced by door slamming or by container transshipment, aircraft landings) were presented by means of loudspeakers in the bedrooms of 50 volunteers. The...article 2013

Vos, J. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author)Er bestaat al jaren behoefte aan meer inzicht in de slaapverstoring die omwonenden ondervinden van impulsachtige geluiden ten gevolge van containeroverslag in havengebieden en het laden en lossen in winkelcentra. Ter bepaling van de kans op ontwaakreacties als functie van het geluidniveau werden 22 proefpersonen gedurende 15 nachten thuis in hun...conference paper 2012

Vos, J. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author), Vercammen, M.L.S. (author)About two decades ago, Vercammen proposed a rating procedure for low frequency sounds. To enable refinements of this procedure, the present study addressed a few spectral and temporal issues. The investigation was carried out in the laboratory with 56 subjects ranging between 20 and 60 years of age. To increase our insight into the spectral...article 2010

Vos, J. (author), Houben, M.M.J. (author), van der Ploeg, F. (author), Buikema, E. (author)The objective of the present laboratory studies was to enable refinements of the current rating procedure for low frequency sounds. To increase our insight into a relevant spectral issue, groups of adjacent frequency bands around 40, 50, and 63 Hz were presented at various sound level combinations. It was concluded that an energy-based summation...conference paper 2010

Vos, J. (author)The annoyance caused by environmental sounds is only in part related to the noise dose. Nonacoustic factors have systematic effects on annoyance also. In the present literature study we explored what nonacoustic factors may be considered as potential tools to reduce the annoyance. Studies designed to test the effect of the nonacoustic factors in...conference paper 2010

One of the objectives is to investigate...conference paper 2010

Vos, J. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)In the Netherlands mopeds are rated to be the most annoying sound source. In spite of the fact that so many residents are annoyed by the moped passby sounds, a dose-response relationship has, to the knowledge of the author, never been reported. In the interest of an adequate prevention or reduction of the community response to moped sounds, it...conference paper 2006

Vos, J. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)We reviewed the literature on the availability of auditory tests that determine, prior to being affected by significant hearing loss, to what extent an individual is susceptible to noise. The predictive power of tests that determine the acoustic reflex responsivity, and both temporal integration and non-linearities of the hearing system, may be...conference paper 2005

Vos, J. (author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid (author)In the present study a previously developed weighted summation model is tested both for simultaneously and for successively presented sounds from a main battle tank (Leopard-2), gunfire (pistols and rifles), and civil road traffic. For the simultaneous presentation mode, the results obtained both with the help of a rating scale and with the...conference paper 2005

TNO Technische Menskunde (author), Vos, J. (author)In a laboratory study, the annoyance caused by the passby sounds from a magnetic levitation (maglev) train was investigated. The listeners were presented with various sound fragments. The task of the listeners was to respond after each presentation to the question: "How annoying would you find the sound in the preceding period if you were...article 2004

Vos, J. (author), TNO Technische Menskunde (author)In a previous study on the annoyance caused by a great variety of shooting sounds [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 109, 244-253 (2001)], it was shown that the annoyance, as rated indoors with the windows closed, could be adequately predicted from the outdoor A-weighted and C-weighted sound-exposure levels [ASEL (L(AE)) and CSEL (L(CE))] of the impulse...article 2003

Vos, J. (author), Geurtsen, F.W.M. (author)As an alternative to the A-weighted sound exposure level (ASEL) Schomer et al. [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 110, 2390-2397 (2001)] used the equal-loudness level contours as a dynamic filter to determine the loudness-level-weighted sound exposure level (LLSEL). From their analyses they concluded that the LLSEL better orders and assesses traffic and...article 2003
