Reseña del libro "Handbook of Acoustics (en Inglés)"
Acoustical engineers, researchers, architects, and designers need acomprehensive, single-volume reference that provides quick andconvenient access to important information, answers and questionson a broad spectrum of topics, and helps solve the toughestproblems in acoustical design and engineering. The Handbook ofAcoustics meets that need. It offers concise coverage of thescience and engineering of acoustics and vibration.In more than 100 clearly written chapters, experts from around theworld share their knowledge and expertise in topics ranging frombasic aerodynamics and jet noise to acoustical signal processing,and from the interaction of fluid motion and sound to infrasound,ultrasonics, and quantum acoustics. Topics covered include:* General linear acoustics* Nonlinear acoustics and cavitation* Aeroacoustics and atmospheric sound* Mechanical vibrations and shock* Statistical methods in acoustics* Architectural acoustics* Physiological acoustics* Underwater sound* Ultrasonics, quantum acoustics, and physical aspects ofsound* Noise: its effects and control* Acoustical signal processing* Psychological acoustics* Speech communication* Music and musical acoustics* Acoustical measurements and instrumentation* TransducersThe Handbook of Acoustics belongs on the reference shelf of everyengineer, architect, research scientist, or designer with aprofessional interest in the propagation, control, transmission,and effects of sound.
