โœฆ Synopsis


A recent paper 1 has reported a difference in response to aircraft noise between the community living around Hong Kong International Airport and that living around Heathrow Airport in the UK. The difference has been ascribed to a different sensitivity of" Chinese in Hong Kong to aircraJt noise. This paper questions whether any such difference exists and suggests that the result is more likely a function of the techniques of survey and analysis adopted in the Hong Kong study. This is" based on a statistical comparison of the regression lines and on an examination of the problems associated with transferring an annoyance scale developed in one environment to another.

Finally it is pointed out that a number of additional problems relating to numerical displays are in need of investigation. 1.3.53(54004) Smith, F., Lott

A method is developed for finding response statistics and reliability for a non-linear system subjected to Poisson white noise. The Poisson white noise can be viewed as a sequence of independent identically distributed pulses arriving in time according to a Poisson counting process. The method is ba
