New York: American Institute of Physics, 1992. — 271 p. The field of optoacoustics is currently undergoing a renaissance. Although optoacoustic effects were described by Bell as early as 1880, the field was for many years neglected. Precise measurements were difficult as the state of prevailing technology, the expense of research, and the high degree of precision required made...
Springer, 2019. — 336 p. — ISBN: 3030149269. This book integrates concepts from physical acoustics with those from linear viscoelasticity and fractional linear viscoelasticity. Compressional waves and shear waves in applications such as medical ultrasound, elastography, and sediment acoustics often follow power law attenuation and dispersion laws that cannot be described with...
2nd edition. — Marcel Dekker, 1997. — 330 p. — ISBN 082479771X. Acousto-optics is an important subfield of optical science and engineering, and as such is quite properly well represented in our series on Optical Engineering. This representation includes the fundamentals and important applications including signal processing, scanning, spectrum analyzers, tuned filters, and...
CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 2010. — 358 p. Why have the basic laws of electrodynamics been disregarded in the design of loudspeaker operations? A frank exposure of the flaws of voltage drive and a thorough, groundbreaking guide to the physically reasonable way of operating electrodynamic loudspeakers - current-drive. The author argues that the sound quality of...
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2014. — 138 p. — ISBN-13 978-1107071711. Advanced Computational Vibroacoustics presents an advanced computational method for the prediction of sound and structural vibrations, in low- and medium-frequency ranges - complex structural acoustics and fluid-structure interaction systems encountered in aerospace, automotive, railway, naval, and...
The MIT Press, 2021. — 248 p. — ISBN: 9780262044783. Episodes in the transformation of our understanding of sound and space, from binaural listening in the nineteenth century to contemporary sound art. The relationship between sound and space has become central to both creative practices in music and sound art and contemporary scholarship on sound. Entire subfields have emerged...
John Wiley & Sons, 2022. — 458 p. — ISBN: 9781119849841. Vibroacoustic simulation is the discipline of modeling and predicting the acoustic waves and vibration of particular objects, systems, or structures. This is done through finite element methods (FEM) or statistical energy analysis (SEA) to cover the full frequency range. In the mid-frequency range, both methods must be...
Addison-Wesley, Cambridge, 1961. — 340 p. — ISBN-13 978-0486442518. No branch of classical physics is older in its origins yet more modern in its applications than acoustics. Courses on acoustics very naturally begin with a study of vibrations, as a preliminary to the introduction of the wave equations. Both vibrations and waves, of course, are vastly important to all branches...
New York: Pearson, 2013. — 770 p. The Science of Sound is widely recognized as the leading textbook in the field. It provides an excellent introduction to acoustics for students without college physics or a strong background in mathematics. In the Third Edition, Richard Moore and Paul Wheeler join Tom Rossing in updating The Science of Sound to include a wide range of important...
2nd Ed. — Routledge, 2018. — 699 p. — ISBN10: 1138733032, 13 978-1138733039. The use of active crossovers is increasing. They are used by almost every sound reinforcement system, and by almost every recording studio monitoring set-up. There is also a big usage of active crossovers in car audio, with the emphasis on routing the bass to enormous low-frequency loudspeakers. Active...
New York: Routledge, 2011. — 401 p. Acoustics and Noise Control provides a detailed and comprehensive introduction to the principles and practice of acoustics and noise control. Since the last edition was published in 1996 there have been many changes and additions to standards, laws, and regulations, codes of practice relating to noise, and in noise measurement techniques and...
CRC Press, 2023. — 825 p. — ISBN: 978-0-367-53345-8. Spatial sound is an enhanced and immersive set of audio techniques which provides sound in three-dimensional virtual space. This comprehensive handbook sets out the basic principles and methods with a representative group of applications: sound field and spatial hearing; principles and analytic methods of various spatial...
