Acoustics
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-0-415-38680-7 (ISBN)
This definitive textbook provides students with a comprehensive introduction to acoustics. Beginning with the basic physical ideas, Acoustics balances the fundamentals with engineering aspects, applications and electroacoustics, also covering music, speech and the properties of human hearing. The concepts of acoustics are exposed and applied in:
room acoustics
sound insulation in buildings
noise control
underwater sound and ultrasound
Scientifically thorough, but with mathematics kept to a minimum, Acoustics is the perfect introduction to acoustics for students at any level of mechanical, electrical or civil engineering courses and an accessible resource for architects, musicians or sound engineers requiring a technical understanding of acoustics and their applications.
Heinrich Kuttruff is Emeritus Professor at the Institute of Technical Acoustics at Aachen University in Germany. He is the author of Room Acoustics, also published by Taylor & Francis and now in its fourth edition.
