Acoustics of Small Rooms (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The acoustics of small spaces are quite different to those of large spaces. Tackling the specific aspects of physics, sound perception, and applications for small spaces, this book brings together the important themes of small room acoustics. It covers sound propagation the effects of boundaries, sound absorbers and time conditions, physiology and psychoacoustics, methods and techniques of room and sound field optimization, examples of how these principles apply in real situations, and measurement and modeling techniques.

Rezensionen

"This book is definitely a great textbook for engineering students who are in particular interested in music and sound reproduction in small rooms. I could easily imagine a course around this book. Obviously, such a course has been the source material for the book. Moreover, it is a great reference for all researchers in the field. I recommend that all acoustics labs around Europe should have this book available in their libraries for faculty and students.

"... a comprehensive review of the state of the art on many important topics in small-room acoustics, presented by authors with much knowledge and practical experience. It discusses small rooms from both objective and subjective points of view..."
-Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, March 2015

"... this book presents the mathematical physics, material analysis, human factors and audio engineering, and computer and measurement techniques necessary for understanding sound fields and their perception in small rooms. ...Each chapter has a list of the references noted in the text and shows the depth of research by the authors. Acoustics of Small Rooms is a useful reference, tutorial and guide for the designer, builder and end-user of small rooms."
-Noise Control Engineering Journal, July-August 2014

"This is not a crusty tome only to be glanced at once and then put on a shelf, never again to see the light of day. It is thorough in its approach, as might be expected given that it was written by two experienced academics...

This book covers a lot more than just the acoustics of small spaces. There is an excellent chapter on psychoacoustics...

A "must have" for almost anyone involved with acoustics, recording or sound reproduction.
