The basic theory of vibrations and waves underlying acoustical phenomena and instrumentation provides the basis for all practical work with room acoustics, environmental noise and sound reproduction systems. Various wave phenomena and their mathematical descriptions are logically developed to enhance student understanding. Also included is a simplified approach to sound and measurement. Provides knowledge of the latest developments in the field through references to the latest equipment and concepts.
