Overview

This book provides the material for an introductory course in engineering acoustics for students with basic knowledge in mathematics. It is based on extensive teaching experience at the university level. Under the guidance of an academic teacher it is sufficient as the sole textbook for the subject. Each chapter deals with a well defined topic and represents the material for a two-hour lecture. The 15 chapters alternate between more theoretical and more application-oriented concepts.

Aus den Rezensionen: Das ... Buch stellt eine erfreuliche Bereicherung der englischsprachigen Literatur uber Technische Akustik dar. ! In allen Kapiteln werden die Zusammenhange anschaulich diskutiert und ... im Rahmen einer anspruchsvollen Vorlesung sinnvoll, auch mathematisch formuliert. ... Didaktisch wird der Stoff hervorragend dargeboten. Besonders erwahnenswert sind die durchweg sehr illustrativen und gut gelungenen Abbildungen. ! dem ... im Beruf stehenden ... Akustiker kann der Band warmstens empfohlen werden. Er gehort eigentlich auf den Schreibtisch jedes angewandten Akustikers. ... die ausfuhrliche Aufgabensammlung ! zu allen Kapiteln ... stellt ... eine Fundgrube fur Lehrende dar ... (Gerhard M. Sessler, in: DEGA Sprachrohr, 2008, Vol. 47, S.29)
