Psychoacoustic evaluation of different fan designs for an urban air mobility vehicle with distributed propulsion system Open
Distributed propulsion systems are developed to power a new generation of aircraft. However, it is not known yet which noise emissions these propulsion systems produce, which psychoacoustic characteristics such systems exhibit, and how the…

Fairness perspectives of airport residents: A qualitative approach Open
Long-term exposure to aircraft noise has been linked to various negative health impacts, with annoyance playing a key role in mediating stress-related health effects. Fairness can be seen as a fundamental aspect potentially reducing annoya…

Being a Fair Neighbor—Towards a Psychometric Inventory to Assess Fairness-Related Perceptions of Airports by Residents—Development and Validation of the Aircraft Noise-Related Fairness Inventory (fAIR-In) Open
Aircraft noise causes a variety of negative health consequences, and annoyance is a central factor mediating stress-related health risks. Non-acoustic factors play an important role in the experience of annoyance where the aspect of fairne…

The role of noise annoyance for health-related effects of aircraft noise and recommendations for interventions Open
Exposure to aircraft noise has been linked to health effects, e.g. cardiovascular disease, sleep outcomes, and noise annoyance. Recent studies suggest noise annoyance to mediate the effects of aircraft noise on other health outcomes. A sim…

"The airport does what it wants to do anyways" – qualitative revisiting of the 4-factor model of fairness in the context of aviation research – first results of a focus group study Open
Annoyance due to aircraft noise is known to be highly impacted by non-acoustical factors such as attitudes , expectations and (mis-)trust towards the airport management. As exposure to noise is generally distributed unevenly, perceived fai…

Impact of Aircraft Noise on Health Open
Aircraft noise exposure is an environmental stressor and has been linked to various adverse health outcomes, such as annoyance, sleep disturbance, and cardiovascular diseases. Aircraft noise can trigger both psychological (annoyance and di…
View article: Coping with Aviation Noise: Non-Acoustic Factors Influencing Annoyance and Sleep Disturbance from Noise
Coping with Aviation Noise: Non-Acoustic Factors Influencing Annoyance and Sleep Disturbance from Noise Open
Annoyance and sleep disturbances due to aircraft noise represent a major burden of disease. They are considered as health effects as well as part of the causal pathway from exposure to long-term effects such as cardiovascular and metabolic…
View article: Considering ‘non-acoustic factors’ as social and environmental determinants of health equity and environmental justice. Reflections on research and fields of action towards a vision for environmental noise policies
Considering ‘non-acoustic factors’ as social and environmental determinants of health equity and environmental justice. Reflections on research and fields of action towards a vision for environmental noise policies Open
Despite being an overall objective of European policies, health equity and environmental justice have not yet been systematically implemented in environmental policies. Taking control over one’s environment as an element of health equity, …
View article: Aircraft Noise Distribution as a Fairness Dilemma—A Review of Aircraft Noise through the Lens of Social Justice Research
Aircraft Noise Distribution as a Fairness Dilemma—A Review of Aircraft Noise through the Lens of Social Justice Research Open
Aircraft noise exposure is a health risk and there is evidence that noise annoyance partly mediates the association between noise exposure and stress-related health risks. Thus, approaches to reduce annoyance may be beneficial for health. …
View article: Effects of Nocturnal Aircraft Noise and Non-Acoustical Factors on Short-Term Annoyance in Primary School Children
Effects of Nocturnal Aircraft Noise and Non-Acoustical Factors on Short-Term Annoyance in Primary School Children Open
Children are considered at higher risk for harmful noise effects due to their sensitive development phase. Here, we investigated the effects of nocturnal aircraft noise exposure on short-term annoyance assessed in the morning in 51 primary…

Influence of transient pressure changes on speech intelligibility: Implications for next-generation train travel Open
High-speed trains are operated in increasingly complex railway networks and continual improvement of driver assistance systems is necessary to maintain safety. Speech offers the opportunity to provide information to the driver without disr…

View article: Investigating the impact of nocturnal aircraft noise on children’s sleep, cognitive performance and annoyance: The MIDAS-study
Investigating the impact of nocturnal aircraft noise on children’s sleep, cognitive performance and annoyance: The MIDAS-study Open
Disturbances of sleep are the most serious effect of nocturnal traffic noise exposure. Studies on the influence of nocturnal aircraft noise on the sleep of children have hardly been carried out so far. In an ongoing field study, the German…

Increased Prevalence of Intermittent Rhythmic Delta or Theta Activity (IRDA/IRTA) in the Electroencephalograms (EEGs) of Patients with Borderline Personality Disorder Open
In this blinded retrospective case-control study, we were able to confirm an increased prevalence of pathological EEG findings (IRDAs/IRTAs only) in BPD patients. The major limitation of this study is that the control group was not matched…
