Loudspeaker Modelling and Design: A Practical Introduction

In this book, Geoff Hill demonstrates modern software and hardware being applied to the processes behind loudspeaker design and modelling. Modern computing power has progressed to the point that such analyses are now practical for any interested individual or small company. Loudspeaker Modelling and Design: A Practical Introduction examines the process from initial concept through specifications and theoretical simulations and onto detailed design. It demonstrates the processes of design and specification, by using detailed simulations of a loudspeaker driver; sufficient to give re-assurance that a design is practical and will perform as expected.This book brings together many different strands of modelling from electro-magnetic through to mechanical and acoustic, without getting bogged down in theoretical discussions and arguments. This practice-based book shows the techniques used in designing modern loudspeakers and transducers.

A Belfast travel writer and his Scottish sidekick take a lighthearted ride up the 16,500-mile Pan-American Highway. Hill proves an amiable, witty guide as he jaunts north through desert, mountain and woodlands. That's not to say he and traveling companion Clifford Paterson don't encounter some bumps in the road. These include a fairly serious crash along a remote stretch of road near Cali, Colombia; endless red tape at a half-dozen Latin-American border crossings; and a ban on beer throughout Central America during Easter Week. . . Hill's breezy, humorous narrative contains just enough dollops of history and local culture to satisfy travel fans. An easy, entertaining read, perfect for plane rides and road trips."" -Kirkus Reviews, 10/15/2007

‘Cliffs, sudden death and sharks on the right; poisonous snakes, spiders, lethal kangaroos, dingoes and, of course, thekiller wombats on the left.’ These are just some of the challenges that face Geoff Hill and Colin O’Carroll as they set off on their Triumph motorcycles for an epic adventure around Australia’s legendary Highway One. Over fifteen thousand miles long, the road circumnavigates the country, taking Geoff and Colin through major cities, busy holiday resorts, dramatic coastlines, tropical forests, scrublands and across the Nullabor Desert, to come full circle and end up in Adelaide … exactly where they started. But this is not just the story of their inspiring and hilarious journey, this is the extraordinary story of Australia itself, told through a motley cast that includes Captain James Cook, Crocodile Dundee, folk hero Ned Kelly, legendary explorers Robert Burke and William Wills, countless immigrants and settlers and an unreliable camper van called Matilda.

This is an unmissable travel book for anyone who loves motorcycles and adventure. In 1912, Carl Stearns Clancy undertook the longest, most difficult, and most perilous journey ever attempted on a motorcycle. By June 1913 he had made history, becoming the first person ever to circumnavigate the globe on a motorbike. One hundred years on, bestselling author and motorcycle adventurer Geoff Hill recreates Clancy's historic journey. Following the same route, and with Clancy's account of the journey echoing in his head, Geoff travels through Europe and North Africa, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Hong Kong, China, and Japan, all the way to America and Clancy's home town of New York.

Travel with them to the big sky plains of Mongolia, African Deserts, the majesty of Pamir Highway, the far reaches of Alaska, the breath-taking drama of Andean backroads and the rugged Trans-Labrador Highway. Delve into the intriguing world of the Sinai, meet surfers in Mexico and be hosted by Iron Angels in Russia.

Along with over 70 illustrations and 20 photographs The Moment Collectors brings the magic of long distance motorcycle travel vividly to life. 
This book of international travel retains the clear identity of each contributor. From seven countries, be they published authors of books, magazine articles, blogs, or first-time writers, their styles, spelling, slang and the quirks of their nationalities are alive within the chapters. Several ride two up, some ride in pairs and there are solo riders too. Some are hugely experienced globe-riders, and others are relatively new to wandering and exploring on two wheels. This is how things are on the open road—the full mix.

Max Edwards was eighteen when he saw the woman he loved and the man he wanted to kill. Those words open the new novel from critically acclaimed author Geoff Hill: the gripping, dramatic and uplifting story of Max, the self-educated son of the butler at a grand estate in rural Ireland who, weeks before the First World War, falls in love with the Japanese bride of the Major who owns the estate. Max's impossible dream is soon torn to shreds by the horror of the Battle of the Somme. After those terrible days, a chance meeting with RFC commander Hugh "Boom" Trenchard in the hospital leads to his transfer to the Royal Flying Corps. He finds his place in the air over the war torn battlefields as a pilot in the RFC. Amid the constant danger of falling to death in flames or being ripped apart by the Germans' Spandau machine guns, he tussles with legends like Baron von Richthofen - and forms the strangest of alliances with German ace Werner Voss. Stand by for a rollercoaster ride, with love, disaster, action, humor, death in the air, spies, a beautiful French nurse and Max's best friend, Bentley Priory, who's as devoted to his conquests in the bedroom as to those in the air. You'll laugh, cry and eventually applaud the unquenchable nature of the human spirit as Max's transition from boy to man is forged in the searing crucible of war.
