Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation, Fourth Edition continues to provide the most authoritative overview of currently available propagation, noise, reverberation, and sonar-performance models.
The rumble of thunder is a sign of a storm, and by listening we can estimate how far away that storm is. Readers explore the principles of sound energyincluding qualities of sound, sound waves, and th
Undersea acoustic applications to detect, communicate, navigate, monitor and measure within the ocean, are dependent upon a good physical understanding of sound production, propagation, and scattering
Physically interesting phenomena appear when sound amplitude is increased to be finite. For example, such a sound deforms its waveform during propagation and shock front forms finally. This means that
Noise is a widely recognized and ever-increasing problem--and a growing health concern--in the modern world. In Discord, Mike Goldsmith looks at the science and history of the long battle between peop
Manufacturing Engineering Society International Conference (MESIC 2011) continues the tasks of the three previous conferences and will accomplish one of the objectives of the Manufacturing Engineering
Long-awaited update and expansion of a widely recognised classic in the field by pioneering acoustics expert, Leo L. Beranek Builds upon Beranek’s 1954 Acoustics classic by incorporating recent deve
Written at an intermediate level in a way that is easy to understand, Fundamentals and Applications of Ultrasonic Waves, Second Edition provides an up-to-date exposition of ultrasonics and some of its
This volume contains the proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging held in Cannes, France, October 12th through the 16th, 1980. Fifty-seven papers were presented over the
A baby-sized introduction to sounds we hear every day, and a delightful companion to Baby SignsLong before they can speak, babies are listening. And with this book of fourteen everyday sounds, babies
The International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging is a unique forum for advanced research, covering new technologies, developments, methods and theories in all areas of acoustics. This interdisciplina
This acoustics handbook for mechanical and architectural applications is a translation of the German standard work on the subject. It not only describes the state of art of engineering acoustics but a
This volume contains forty-six of the papers presented at the Ninth International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging held December 3-6, 1979, in Houston, Texas. The theme of the confer- ence was the inte
Shallow water acoustics (SWA), the study of how low and medium frequency sound propagates and scatters on the continental shelves of the worlds oceans, has both technical interest and a large number o
