Produktbeschreibung

Blauert's and Xiang's Acoustics for Engineers provides the material for an introductory course in engineering acoustics for students with basic knowledge in mathematics. In the second, enlarged edition, the teaching aspects of the book have been substantially improved. Carefully selected examples illustrate the application of acoustic principles and problems are provided for training.

Acoustics for Engineers is designed for extensive teaching 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.

Rezensionen

"The book is systematic but concise, covering the acoustic basics required for engineering applications, as well as electroacoustic transducers, room acoustics, noise control, and more aspects of the fundamentals. ... it is also beneficial to engineers and technicians engaged in the development of related technologies, so it is hereby recommended." (ACTA ACUSTICA, Vol. 48 (4), 2023)

"As its title suggests, the book takes a structured, engineering approach. ... It also serves as a reference book to delve deeper into individual topics or to revisit buried knowledge. ... Acoustics for Engineers is convincing in its brevity and structure and is consequently recommended to all readers who, in addition to a well-illustrated presentation of the fundamentals of acoustics and electro-acoustics, are interested in their derivations, correlations, and analogies, as well as in the calculation of typical problems." (Martin Schneider, vdt Magazin, Issue (2), 2022)
