Terms for subject Environment (5576 entries)
støvfjerning dust removal (The removal of dust from air by ventilation or exhaust systems)
støvinntak dust immission
støy noise pollutant (Noise in the environment which can be harmful to human beings, animals and plants)
støy noise (Sound which is unwanted, either because of its effects on humans, its effect on fatigue or malfunction of physical equipment, or its interference with the perception or detection of other sounds)
støy fra dyr animal noise (Noise caused by animals such as dogs kept in kennels or in private homes as pets)
støy fra næringsaktivitet commercial noise (Noise emitted from commercial activities)
støyanalyse noise analysis (Determination of the frequency components that make up a particular noise being studied)
støyavgift noise emission levy (A mandatory sum of money levied by government upon producers of disturbing, harmful or unwanted sounds, frequently in the transportation or construction industries, to encourage reduction of sound levels)
støybekjemping noise control (The process to control the audible sound to an acceptable level)
støybekjemping noise abatement (Measures to reduce noise at the source, to encourage quieter technologies or equipment or to prevent or reduce the propagation of sound. Measures may include the isolation and damping of vibration sources; the replacement of components with quieter parts and material; the enclosure of particularly noisy components; the provision of noise barriers, etc.)
støyemisjon noise emission (The release of noise into the environment from various sources that can be grouped in: transportation activities, industrial activities and daily normal activities)
støyforstyrrelse noise disturbance (Noise interferes with communication and interferes with thought processes. Noise interferes with sleep, it causes anger and frustration, and has been implicated as a contributor to various psychological and physiological problems. Noise detracts from the quality of life and the environment)
støyforurensning noise pollution (Harmful or unwanted sounds in the environment, which in specific locals, can be measured and averaged over a period of time)
støyfri teknologi noise-free technology (Sound is radiated both as air-borne and as structure-borne; most sources produce both, thus various noise attenuation principles must be employed. Measures include: the replacement of components with quieter parts and material; the enclosure of particularly noisy components; the selection of quieter types of fan; the replacement of noisy compressed-air nozzles with quieter types; the choice of quieter transmission and cooling systems)
støyimmisjon noise immission (Immission in the environment of acoustic vibrations that negatively affect human beings, animals, plants or other objects)
støylovgivning noise legislation (Legislation introduced by many governments to prevent or restrict the emission of noise from industrial, commercial and domestic premises; from motor vehicles and aircraft; and from consumer appliances and equipment)
støymåling noise measurement (The process of quantitatively determining one or more properties of acoustic noise)
støynivå noise level (Physical quantity of unwanted sound measured, usually expressed in decibels)
støyovervåking noise monitoring (The systematic deployment of monitoring equipment for the purpose of detecting or measuring quantitatively or qualitatively the presence, effect, or level of noise)
støyreduksjon noise reduction (The reduction in the sound pressure level of a noise, or the attenuation of unwanted sound by any means)
