Transducers and Arrays for Underwater Sound
Springer 2007; US$ 139.99Discusses the theory, development and design of electroacoustic transducers for underwater applications. This book includes the basics of the six major types of electroacoustic transducers and shows why piezoelectric ceramic transducers are the most suitable for underwater sound. It also presents the basic acoustic concepts. more...
Reference for Modern Instrumentation, Techniques, and Technology
Elsevier Science 1998; US$ 244.00While research on ultrasonics has been covered in earlier volumes of the Physical Acoustics series, Volumes 23 and 24 demonstrate the successful commercialization of devices and instruments arising from research in this area. These volumes will assist in the process of bringing research output into the marketplace to the benefit of customers. The... more...
Acoustic Sensing Techniques for the Shallow Water Environment
Springer 2006; US$ 169.99Acoustic techniques provide the most effective means for remote sensing of ocean and sea floor processes, and for probing the structure beneath the sea floor. Including a CD-ROM, this volume contains the collection of papers from the second workshop on Experimental Acoustic Inversion Techniques for Exploration of the Shallow Water Environment. more...
Computational Acoustics of Noise Propagation in Fluids
Springer 2008; US$ 149.99The book provides a survey of numerical methods for acoustics, namely the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). In particular, the FEM is often used for interior problems whereas BEM is quite popular for exterior problems. This book shows that both methods can be effectively used for many other cases, FEM even for open... more...
Predicting Outdoor Sound
Taylor & Francis 2006; US$ 170.00This is a highly practical reference for acoustic engineers, especially those working on major projects where noise control is a key issue, such as the design and construction of Heathrow Terminal 5. more...
Acoustics and Hearing
Springer 2008; US$ 64.99When one listens to music at home, one would like to have an acoustic impression close to that of being in the concert hall. Until recently this meant elaborate multi-channelled sound systems with 5 or more speakers. But head-related stereophony achieves the surround-sound effect in living room with only two loudspeakers. By virtue of their slight... more...
Infrasound Monitoring for Atmospheric Studies
Springer 2010; US$ 219.99Electric Arc Furnaces are being greatly improved at a fast pace. This book equips a reader with knowledge necessary for critical analysis of these innovations and helps to select the most effective ones and for their successful implementation. The book also covers general issues related to history of development, current state and prospects of steelmaking... more...
Physics and Technology for Future Presidents
Princeton University Press 2010; US$ 69.50Physics and Technology for Future Presidents contains the essential physics that students need in order to understand today's core science and technology issues, and to become the next generation of world leaders. From the physics of energy to climate change, and from spy technology to quantum computers, this is the only textbook to focus on the... more...
Head First Physics
O'Reilly Media 2008; US$ 27.99Wouldn't it be great if there were a physics book that showed you how things work instead of telling you how? Finally, with Head First Physics , there is. This comprehensive book takes the stress out of learning mechanics and practical physics by providing a fun and engaging experience, especially for students who "just don't get it." Head First... more...
