Provides systematic methodology for investigating, evaluating, and designing controls for noise emanating from internal combustion engines, or from the addition of necessary components, with emphasis on control at the source of the noise. Deals with noise control on a component-by-component basis. Discusses control along the path of propagation, the effects of operating parameters on the noise level that an engine can produce, and silencers as a means of noise control. Assesses damping and isolation treatments, and sets forth a noise and vibration monitoring methodology to meet design goals and quality standards consistently.
