This book is the first of its kind. It provides the reader with a logical and highly quantitative means of including noise as a parameter in the early design stages of a machine or structure. The unique and unified methodology builds upon the familiar disciplines of acoustics, structural dynamics and optimization. It also exemplifies the art of simplification - the essence of all good engineering design.
Strategies for designing quiet structures require extensive analytical and experimental tools. For computing the sound power from complex structures the authors recommend a new 3-D, lumped parameter formulation. This fully developed, user-friendly program can be applied generally to noise-control-by-design problems. Detailed instructions for running the application are given in the appendix as well as several sample problems to help the user get started.
The authors also describe a new instrument: a specially developed resistance probe used to measure a structure=92s acoustic surface resistance. As an example, the procedure is outlined for measuring the valve cover of an internal combustion engine. Indeed, throughout the book the reader is presented with actual experiments, numerical and physical that they can replicate in their own laboratory.
This is a must-have book for engineers working in industries that include noise control in the design of a product. Its practical and didactic approach also makes it ideally suited to graduate students.

Professor Gary Koopmann is the Director of the Center for Acoustics and Vibration at Pennsylvania State University, PA, USA. He is also a consultant to industry and government in the area of noise and vibration control.
Dr. John Fahnline publishes extensively in the area of numerical methods in acoustics and is presently a Research Associate at Pennsylvania State's Applied Research Laboratory.
This book is the first of its kind. Building on fundamental concepts, it introduces the reader to a unique method of modeling acoustics that allows noise to be treated as a parameter in the early design stages of a machine or structure. This unified methodology builds upon the familiar disciplines of acoustics, structural dynamics and optimization.
For computing sound power, the authors have developed a new 3-D, lumped parameter, numerical acoustics program (POWER). This user-friendly program can be applied to any noise-control-by-design problem in the most general sense. Detailed instructions for running POWER are given in the appendix along with several sample problems to help the user get started.
The authors also describe a new instrument - a specially developed probe used to measure a structure's surface acoustic resistance. The measurement procedure is carefully explained and several example cases (e.g., an expansion chamber)are documented with enough detail for the reader to replicate. Throughout the book the reader is presented with actual experiments, both numerical and physical, that they can expect to reproduce in their own laboratory.
This is a must-have book for engineers working in industries that include noise control in the design of a product. Its practical and didactic approach also makes it ideally suited for graduate students.
