Acoustics: An introduction to its physical principles and applications (McGraw-Hill series in mechanical engineering)

McGraw-Hill Book Co.

Important frontiers in physical and underwater acoustics are the radiation and scattering of sound by structures of nonstandard shape and whose dimensions are neither small or large compared with the waavelengths of the acoustic fields. This volume presents an in-depth discussion starting from the basic fundamentals of the most promising computational and theoretical approaches that are currently under active research to advance these frontiers. The book should interest not only researchers in underwater acoustics but also researchers concerned with computational acoustics, noise control, nondestructive acoustic examination, and design issues that involve the radiation of sound by complex structures.

Acoustical Society of Amer

This corrected version of the landmark 1981 textbook introduces the physical principles and theoretical basis of acoustics with deep mathematical rigor, concentrating on concepts and points of view that have proven useful in applications such as noise control, underwater sound, architectural acoustics, audio engineering, nondestructive testing, remote sensing, and medical ultrasonics. Since its publication, this text has been used as part of numerous acoustics-related courses across the world, and continues to be used widely today. During its writing, the book was fine-tuned according to insights gleaned from a broad range of classroom settings. Its careful design supports students in their pursuit of a firm foundation while allowing flexibility in course structure. The book can easily be used in single-term or full-year graduate courses and includes problems and answers. This rigorous and essential text is a must-have for any practicing or aspiring acoustician.
