There have been significant changes in noise and vibration control engineering in the last 10 years. This classic guide acts as a concise reference that supplies practical design information to all facets of a noise and vibration engineer`s job. The increased emphasis and interest in engineering control of noise has driven the growth in attendance and membership rates at meetings of the Acoustical Society and at Noise-Con and this book should be the essential desk reference for this market.
