"acoustic impact" is a correct and usable phrase in written English.
You could use it to refer to the effect of sound on the environment. For example: "The acoustic impact of the city's constant traffic can be quite overwhelming."
Today, visual impact is studied through photomontages and virtual environments while acoustic impact is rather evaluated through technical studies.
This study aimed to investigate the role of false vocal folds (FVFs) medialization in phonation and the acoustic impact of ventricular hypertrophy by establishing an FVF hypertrophy model.
The study is motivated by the need to assess environmental impact of tidal devices, in terms of their acoustic impact on marine species.
Although refinements are required to improve the modelling of noise sources and propagation for finer scale projections in this complex nearshore environment, this agent-based modelling paradigm of 3MTSim proved informative for underwater acoustic impact assessments.
The acoustic impact testing can be performed simply using a basic vibration test kit and an impedance tube, which is commonly used on the investigation of material acoustic impedance.
The method is based on the steady-state power injection method, which is a non-destructive acoustic impact testing for the in situ determination of dissipation and coupling loss factors of subsystems representing the physical system.
Wind turbines (WT) are socially controversial because of their visual and acoustic impacts.
"Lacour Energy has worked closely with the department to assess acoustic impacts of the windfarm as well as impacts on fauna and vegetation," Lynham said.
The study of two different paths – corresponding to the immediate and the intermediate distance area of the WT park – reveals the influence of the environment (physical factors, space shapes) and of the observer (geographical origin, motion) on the visual and acoustic impacts.
The device presented herein allows to optimize the hydrodynamic and acoustic pulse impact on the milieu of these microorganisms.
Visual-acoustic landscape simulations of wind parks offer a potential instrument for public participation, allowing experiencing the visual and the acoustic landscape impact.
