The AHAAH model has been modified and validated against human injury data from impulse noise exposures.
The new AHAAH's dose-response curve established using large weapon noise data is independently validated by rifle noise data.
The integrated cochlear energy is identified as the best damage risk correlate for impulse noise injury.
The acoustical test fixture method developed to collect eardrum pressure data correctly accounts for the effects of HPDs.
The new AHAAH model can be used as the model-based medical standard against impulse noise injury.
