Engineering Noise Control Theory and Practice Tapa dura - 2003 - 3rd Edición

de David A. Bies


Información de la editorial

The third edition of Engineering Noise Control has been thoroughly revised, updated and extended. Each chapter contains new material, much of which is not available elsewhere. The result is a comprehensive discussion of the theoretical principles and concepts of acoustics and noise control, a detailed discussion of the hearing mechanism, noise measuring instrumentation and techniques, noise criteria, sound source characterization and emission, outdoor sound propagation, sound in rooms, sound transmission through partitions, enclosure design, dissipative and reactive mufflers, vibration isolation, equipment sound power emission calculations and active noise cancellation.
The book is an excellent text for advanced undergraduate or graduate students of acoustic and noise control, and it also contains essential information and prediction techniques that make it an invaluable resource for the practitioner.

Primera línea

The recognition of noise as a source of annoyance began in antiquity, but the relationship, sometimes subtle, that may exist between noise and money seems to be a development of more recent times.
