This practical book presents the scientific principles of noise control and their application to real problems. Through numerous worked examples, the reader can develop an understanding of noise control in a variety of social and industrial settings.
Noise Control: From Concept to Application presents the basic principles of noise control and their practical application to real problems. Numerous examples are worked out in detail and are used to illustrate the concepts in the book. There are few derivations of equations, but reference is made to texts from which these are derived. An excellent learning tool for students and practitioners, this guide to noise control will enable readers to use their knowledge to solve a wide range of industrial noise control problems. Working from basic scientific principles, the author shows how an understanding of sound can be applied to real-world settings.

Colin Hansen is Professor and head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at The University of Adelaide, Australia and past-President of the International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration. He has had extensive industrial experience as a noise and vibration consultant and is also author "Understanding Active Noise Cancellation" and co-author "Engineering Noise Control, which are both also published by Spon Press.
