Passive noise control design for residential building near highways / Nafisah Mahussin

Noise is derived from the Latin word “nausea” implying ‘unwanted sound’ or ‘sound that is loud, unpleasant or unexpected’. The noise originates from human activities, especially the urbanization and the development of transport and industry. The passive method is a simple approach which includes th...
