high-impulse sound Explanation: High-impulse sounds such as blasting, sonic booms, and artillery fire are more likely to cause damage than continuous sounds such as aircraft noise. http://tinyurl.com/38zsauw -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2010-09-26 21:10:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hałas impulsowy jest dźwiękiem o dużym natężeniu i bardzo małym czasie trwania. Hałasy impulsowe mogą powstać w wyniku eksplozji lub zderzenia obiektów. W przemyśle powstają we wszystkich procesach technologicznych, w których zachodzą gwałtowne zmiany objętości gazu (wybuchy, rozprężanie powietrza uwalnianego w urządzeniach sterowanych pneumatycznie itp.) i występują uderzenia (kucie, młotkowanie, uderzenia pras i obcinarek, stemplowanie, numerowanie). http://www.wypadek.pl/body/bibl/inne/art2/art2.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2010-09-26 21:16:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The two types of noise, high steady (continuous) noise generated by vehicles or aircraft and high impulse noise generated by weapons or explosions are equally damaging in different ways. http://www.sovereign-publications.com/nacre.htm |
