Produktbeschreibung
Written by world leaders in vibroacoustics and porous media, the long-awaited second edition of this respected text covers the state of the art with an unrivaled depth of treatment. It offers a logical and progressive approach to porous material modeling. The coverage also includes new practical prediction methods and industrial applications, as well as new chapters on numerical modeling in both low (finite element/boundary element) and high frequencies (Transfer Matrix Method, SEA). This is an essential text for graduate students, academics and researchers in mechanical and civil engineering acoustics and noise control.
"The first edition of this book is considered the bible of this topic... Suffice it to say that there is no other published treatise that approaches the depth of treatment offered by this book. The coverage is the state of the published art, while the added contents cover the new known developments in the field." Haisam Osman; Technology Development Manager, United Launch Alliance This long-awaited second edition of a respected text from world leaders in the field of acoustic materials covers the state of the art with a depth of treatment unrivalled elsewhere. Allard and Atalla employ a logical and progressive approach that leads to a thorough understanding of porous material modelling. The first edition of Propagation of Sound in Porous Media introduced the basic theory of acoustics and the related techniques. Research and development in sound absorption has however progressed significantly since the first edition, and the models and methods described, at the time highly technical and specialized, have since become main stream. In this second edition, several original topics have been revisited and practical prediction methods and industrial applications have been added that increase the breadth of its appeal to both academics and practising engineers. New chapters have also been added on numerical modeling in both low (finite element) and high frequency (Transfer Matrix Method). Collating 'must-have' information for engineers working in sound and vibration, Propagation of Sound in Porous Media, 2nd edition offers an indisputable reference to a diverse audience; including graduate students and academics in mechanical & civil engineering, acoustics and noise control, as well as practising mechanical, chemical and materials engineers in the automotive, rail, aerospace, building and civil industries.

Autorenporträt
Jean-Francois Allard, Université le Mans, France and Noureddine Atalla, Université de Sherbrooke, QC, Canada Jean-Francois Allard was a full professor at the university of Le Mans (France) since 1979, where he is now an emeritus professor. In 2008 he was awarded the M. A. Biot medal of Poromechanics from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) for his outstanding research contributions in extending Biot theory to the acoustics of air filled sound absorbing porous materials by providing models and measuring techniques for the industry. He is currently working in collaboration with the ATF laboratory (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium) on the metrology of anisotropic porous media. He has been responsible for many contracts with car manufacturers, aircraft manufacturers, and motor manufacturers. Noureddine Atalla is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Université de Sherbrooke, QC, Canada. He is internationally recognized as an expert in the field of computational vibroacoustics and acoustic materials and has published over 55 papers in peer-reviewed journals spanning different domains, including coupled fluid-structure problems, the acoustic and dynamic response of sandwich and composite structures, poroelastic and viscoelastic materials, and modeling methods for industrial structures. He has been involved in several international projects dealing with computational vibroacoustics and design of acoustic materials, working in collaboration with the US Air Force and Boeing, amongst others. He has recently been awarded an industrial chair in Aviation Acoustics in partnership with Pratt & Witney Canada, Bombardier Aerospace and Bell Helicopters Textron.
Rezensionen
All in all this is an impressive book which will serve as an excellent reference for those working in the acoustics of porous media, and as a perfect introduction to the subject for novices. (Journal of Sound & Vibration, 2010)
