From the Preface to the Second Edition of the
“Taschenbuch der Technischen Akustik”
TheHandbookofTechnicalAcousticsaimstoprovideabroadaudiencewithaquick
and reliable source of information on engineering questions. It is directed not only
towardspecialistsandstudentsofTechnicalAcoustics,butrathertowardengineers
inalldomains,e.g.,mechanicalengineering,processengineering,trafficsystemsor
civilengineering,whodealwiththetopicofnoisereduction.
In light of the increasing significance of environmental protection, a number of
articlescoverthegeneration,transmission,insulation,measurementandassessment
of air, and structure borne noise; at the same time, questions pertaining to electro-
acoustics,roomacousticsandaudio-physiologyarediscussedindetail.
Just as in the first edition, in addition to the basics of technical acoustics and
associateddomains,greatemphasishasbeenplacedonincludingasmuchinforma-
tion as possible on material data, empirical values, important measurement results,
testedapproximationformulas,usefulreferencevalues,etc.Thiswillhelpthereader
understandthegeneralcontext,whileatthesametimeprovidingdatarequiredforthe
solutionofpracticalproblems–withouthavingtoengageintime-consumingstudies
of the literature. The editors extend their sincere thanks, especially to all of the
authors who, alongside their professional work, have committed themselves to the

Description:This book examines the physical background of engineering acoustics, focusing on empirically obtained engineering experience as well as on measurement techniques and engineering methods for prognostics. Its goal is not only to describe the state of art of engineering acoustics but also to give pract
