What Makes Different Sounds?
National Science Teachers Association 2012; US$ 8.21On their walk home from school, twins Jane and Jim explore why sounds can be startling (like sirens), soothing (like music), or mysterious (like eerie creaking in an empty house). By coming along, young readers of What Makes Different Sounds? can learn as the twins do. Theyll be introduced to the roles vibration, pitch, and volume play in how... more...

Fundamentals of Shallow Water Acoustics
Springer 2012; US$ 139.99Shallow water acoustics (SWA), the study of how low and medium frequency sound propagates and scatters on the continental shelves of the worlds oceans, has both technical interest and a large number of practical applications. Technically, shallow water poses an interesting medium for the study of acoustic scattering, inverse theory, and propagation... more...
Analytic Methods of Sound Field Synthesis
Springer 2012; US$ 99.99This book puts the focus on serving human listeners in the sound field synthesis although the approach can be also exploited in other applications such as underwater acoustics or ultrasonics. The author derives a fundamental formulation based on standard integral equations and the single-layer potential approach is identified as a useful tool in order... more...

Sounds
OUP Oxford 2007; US$ 29.99Vision dominates philosophical thinking about perception, and theorizing about experience in cognitive science has traditionally focused on a visual model. In a radical departure from established practice, Casey O'Callaghan provides a systematic treatment of sound and sound experience, and shows how thinking about audition and appreciating the... more...
Auralization
Springer 2007; US$ 139.99In acoustics, auralization, which means being analogue to the technique of "visualization", takes place when acoustic effects, primary sound signals or means of sound reinforcement, are processed to be presented by using electro-acoustic equipment. This book presents the basics, methodology and strategies of acoustic simulation and auralization. more...
