Noise and Vibration Worldwide

Aims & Scope

Worldwide, increasingly stringent regulations are coming into force, limiting the exposure of workers to industrial noise and vibration.

The topic of industrial noise and vibration, and its consequences, is thus of growing importance to employers, local and central government officials, trade unions, occupational hygienists and physicians, and insurers.

Noise & Vibration Worldwide is a peer-reviewed journal, covering the effects of noise and vibration on individuals at work, the effects of vibration on machines and buildings, the impact of industrially-generated noise on the community, hearing protection, audiology, and audiometry.

The summaries of significant work presented in Noise & Vibration Worldwide are drawn from a wide range of the world's scientific and technical literature, and it is the only publication which presents such a breadth of information in such an easily accessible form.
