• Abstract:
  High levels of low frequency noise are created by aircraft during take-off and landing. A by-product of low frequency sound incident on a building façade is the excitation of structures within the building into vibrations. Such acoustically-induced structural vibrations may be imperceptible, but they may cause rattle. Rattle is caused by the intermittent loss of contact between two bodies due to vibration 1. Rattle causes secondary noise emissions, which are often perceived as annoying 2. Investigation of the mechanisms leading to rattle onset and the development of rattle mitigation strategies are needed to reduce rattle emissions, and the associated annoyance.
