Review
'The list of contributing authors reads like a veritable Who's Who' of UK acoustics.' - Acoustics Bulletin
'This represents an excellent introductory text book on noise and vibration for a postgraduate student or a specialist engineer with little or no previous acoustic knowledge.' - Acoustics Bulletin
The book is also an excellent starting point for engineers seeking to acquaint themselves with these fields as well as a valuable reference for practising scientists. This is not only interesting reading; it is a useful reference for those working in or planning to work in the field of practical acoustics. - Acustica

Product Description
The principal purpose of Fundamentals of Noise and Vibration is to provide an understanding of the physical phenomena of sound and vibration, their effects on human beings, their mathematical representations and theoretical and experimental means for their analysis and measurement. No prior formal education in the specific subject is assumed, but a training in mechanics, fluid dynamics and applied mathematics is a pre-requisite. The material forms the basis of the first semester ISVR M.Sc. course in Sound and Vibration Studies.
