Engineering noise control [5th ed.]

By: Bies, David A.
Contributor(s): Hansen, Colin H | Howard, Carl Q.
Publisher: Boca Raton CRC Press 2018Edition: 5th ed.Description: xxvi, 826p.ISBN: 9781498724050.Subject(s): Noise control | Machinery -- Noise | SoundproofingDDC classification: 620.23 | B478e5 Summary: This classic and authoritative student textbook contains information that is not oversimplified and can be used to solve the real-world problems encountered by noise and vibration consultants as well as the more straightforward ones handled by engineers and occupational hygienists in the industry. The book covers the fundamentals of acoustics, theoretical concepts, and practical application of current noise control technology. It aims to be as comprehensive as possible while still covering important concepts in sufficient detail to engender a deep understanding of the foundations upon which noise control technology is built. Topics that are extensively developed or overhauled from the fourth edition include sound propagation outdoors, amplitude modulation, hearing protection, frequency analysis, muffling devices (including 4-pole analysis and self-noise), sound transmission through partitions, finite element analysis, statistical energy analysis, and transportation noise. For those who are already well-versed in the art and science of noise control, the book will provide an extremely useful reference. A wide range of example problems that are linked to noise control practice is available on www.causalsystems.com for free download.
