ANTI-NOISE BARRIERS

Specialty Definition: ANTI-NOISE BARRIERS

DomainDefinition

Medicine

A generic term to imply either partial enclosures or acoustic screens, canopies or baffles. Since they cannot provide encapsulation of a sound field, barriers can only be expected to provide relatively low values of sound attenuation in certain directions by wave screening effects or by sound dissipation at acoustically absorbent linings.
