Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the effect of atmospheric conditions on the acoustic detection of low-flying aircraft. For a given position at ground level, the problem is to determine the sound intensity resulting from a sound source of known acoustical power at specified altitude, range, and direction relative to the observer. A stratified atmosphere is assumed in which the temperature, wind velocity, and humidity are dependent on the altitude only. Specification of a refraction law for the sound ray emanating from the elevated source is followed by development of a three-dimensional ray-tracing program to determine the ground-level sound intensity due to a source at an altitude of 500 ft radiating 100 kW (134 HP) of acoustical power. The analysis reveals that the detection range of an elevated source is extremely sensitive to azimuth of propagation as well as to source altitude, power, and frequency. (Author).

Download or read book Predicting Outdoor Sound written by Keith Attenborough and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-03-07 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Predicting Outdoor Sound is an up-to-date reference on the propagation of sound close to the ground and its prediction. New content includes comparisons between predictions and data for road traffic, railway and wind turbine noise; descriptions of source characteristics in the HARMONOISE model; propagation over rough seas, parallel low walls, and lattices; outlines of numerical methods; gabion (caged stones) and sonic crystal noise barriers; meteorological effects on noise barrier performance; and the prediction requirements for auralization. The book brings together relevant theories, prediction schemes, and data, thereby providing a basis for determining what model or scheme might be applicable for any situation. It also offers a background on useful analytical approximations and the restrictions, as well as difficulties and limitations associated with engineering prediction schemes. The text should be of considerable interest to researchers in outdoor sound propagation and, more generally, it should provide a comprehensive primer on the topic for lecturers, consultants and students in acoustics and noise control.

This new edition of the Handbook features over 11 revised and expanded chapters, new illustrations and two new chapters covering microphone arrays, acoustic metamaterials and acoustic emission. These improvements will make the handbook even more useful as a reference and a guide for researchers and students in every branch of acoustics. Praise for the first edition: "This treatise is a successful attempt to cover in one book the diverse field of acoustics, which ranges from physics to music and from formal mathematics to technological applications. ... It is this reviewer's opinion that a handbook like Rossing's, which covers the whole field of acoustics, serves a real purpose because it not only gives one a chance to see how one's specialty is covered but it also permits one to make a quick survey of other acoustical areas." (Leo Beranek, American Journal of Physics, Vol. 77 (12), December, 2009) "The Springer Handbook of Acoustics falls into that exceptional list. ...every physics department should have a copy available." (John L. Hubisz, The Physics Teacher, Vol. 48, March, 2010) "This handbook is an excellent addition to the acoustics literature. ... The handbook nicely covers both basics and advances in several areas of acoustics. Several chapters provide good mathematical depth, making the handbook useful as a research and technical resource. ...Overall, a very useful educational and research resource. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals." (M. G. Prasad, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (5), January, 2008) "This book covers a wide range of topics and the inclusion of musical acoustics, computer and electronic music appeal to me (singer, song-writer, performer and recording studio co-owner). This handbook is probably well suited for an undergraduate-level introduction to an acoustics course. ... The wide range of topics, inclusion of music-related chapters, eye-pleasing presentations and other useful features make this a very good book to have on your shelf." (Tim Casey, International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 13 (1), 2008) "The Springer Handbook of Acoustics comprises 28 chapters written by 33 authors. The Handbook of Acoustics is useful as a source book for anyone who needs or wants to become familiar with the jargon and issues related to a specific subfield of acoustics ... ." (Robert I. Odom, Siam Review, Vol. 50 (3), 2008) The Springer Handbook of Acoustics reviews the most important areas of acoustics, with emphasis on current research. The authors of the various chapters are all experts in their fields. Each chapter is richly illustrated with figures and tables. The latest research and applications are incorporated throughout, e.g. computer recognition and synthesis of speech, physiological acoustics, psychological acoustics, thermoacoustics, diagnostic imaging and therapeutic applications and acoustical oceanography. This new edition of the Handbook features over 13 revised and expanded chapters, new illustrations and 3 new chapters covering microphone arrays, acoustic metamaterials and acoustic emission.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Propagation of sound waves close to the ground is a complex problem involving many interesting mechanisms. In addition to geometrical spreading and molecular absorption, which are reasonably well understood, the three main mechanisms which influence the acoustic field are reflection with phase change due to the finite impedence of the ground, refraction by wind and temperature gradients, and scattering by atmospheric turbulence. Outdoor sound propagation in a turbulent medium is not a well understood process and has only recently begun to receive serious attention. This report is the first of a series of reports on sound propagation through a turbulent atmosphere. It documents the experimental configuration and describes data analysis. The data analysis includes plots of the real and imaginary parts of the acoustic pressure as a function of time (scatter plots), probability of observing a particular amplitude, and the more familiar structure functions. A preliminary analysis of data suggests reasonable agreement in structure functions at frequencies of 500 Hz and above. At lower frequencies, phase and log amplitude structure functions are both larger than predicted from theory. A tentative explanation for this difference is under development and will be presented in the third of the three volume series. The second volume will be devoted to refractive effects. Keywords: Computer programs; Outdoor sound.

Book excerpt: This classic and authoritative student textbook contains information that is not over simplified and can be used to solve the real world problems encountered by noise and vibration consultants as well as the more straightforward ones handled by engineers and occupational hygienists in industry. The book covers the fundamentals of acoustics, theoretical concepts and practical application of current noise control technology. It aims to be as comprehensive as possible while still covering important concepts in sufficient detail to engender a deep understanding of the foundations upon which noise control technology is built. Topics which are extensively developed or overhauled from the fourth edition include sound propagation outdoors, amplitude modulation, hearing protection, frequency analysis, muffling devices (including 4-pole analysis and self noise), sound transmission through partitions, finite element analysis, statistical energy analysis and transportation noise. For those who are already well versed in the art and science of noise control, the book will provide an extremely useful reference. A wide range of example problems that are linked to noise control practice are available on www.causalsystems.com for free download.
