The impact of the neighbourhood environment on health and behaviour amongst older adults has received less attention, despite this age group being potentially more vulnerable to barriers in their surrounding social and physical environment.
Hence, both acoustic and landscape issues need to be taken into consideration to design effective noise barriers in urban environments.
The behavior of the films as corrosion protection barriers in aggressive environments was evaluated by immersion tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements.
