| Abstract | The purpose of this research is to establish a relationship between subjects exposed to noise generated by military aircraft, with potential changes observed in cognitive abilities. The sample of 65 subjects in two layers pilots and maintenance personnel. Data were collected between 2006 and 2009. For the study of noise, were considered FAA Standards and ISO, and the evaluation psychoacoustics, the technical survey results indicate that in the work area of low frequency noise between 16 and 250 Hz, is higher than 100 dB, at all stages of the airplane. The launch represents the phase at higher pressure. Ground operations, reached values of 125 dB. No significant changes were observed in attention and memory. In conclusion, it is assumed that noise is transformed into an electrical signal the brain by altering the Betha and Delta brain waves, giving responses of irritability, fatigue, malaise and drowsiness. |
