Fundamentals of Physical Acoustics
Blackstock, David T. (University of Texas, Austin, Texas)
Acoustics is the science that deals with the production, control, transmission, reception, and effects of sound. The study of sound and vibration is critical to the engineer designing automobiles and aircraft as well as those mapping out a concert hall or reconfiguring a stereo system. More than any other book currently available, this important text provides coverage of both the fundamentals and applications of acoustics.
