Zusatztext "Finally a modern alternative to the classical books on electroacoustics. The powerful technique of electrical analogous circuits is used for the analysis of microphones! loudspeakers and headphones. Theory as well as practical aspects are covered in this book by an author with decades of experience in teaching! research and practical applications. The inclusion of exercises makes this a great textbook for university teachers. Electroacoustics is a great topic for attracting students to acoustics! and this modern textbook will serve well in that role."-Peter Svensson! Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)"This book includes comprehensive coverage pertinent to fundamentals of electroacoustics! the latest knowledge pertaining to electroacoustics. Logically divided subtopics are arranged in separate chapters. Each chapter also features review questions and detailed! individual problems at the end of the chapter! suitable for university-level (both under- and graduate) course teaching or even self-study. Many basic theoretical concepts are explained with the help of a minimal amount of math! accessible to many students or audio engineers."-Ning Xiang! Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute! New York! USA"I found Electroacoustics to be a very readable and informative book. ? provides an excellent summary of electroacoustic principles and applications. It will serve as an excellent textbook for an electroacoustics class or a resource for product designers."-Noise Control Engineering Journal! September-October 2013"Mendel Kleiner! the author of this book! is a Fellow of the Acoustical Society of America and a former Associate Editor of the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America. He is a widely recognized expert on architectural acoustics and electroacoustics."-Acoustics Today! October 2013"It is very thorough in its approach and it covers nearly all transducer types! discussing the key scientific and engineering principles of loudspeaker and microphone transducers. A number of chapters include homework and problem sections."-Sound & Communications Magazine! November 2018 Issue Informationen zum Autor Mendel Kleiner is Professor Emeritus at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden, and head of the Chalmers Room Acoustics Group. Before his retirement, Dr. Kleiner taught room acoustics, audio, electroacoustics, and ultrasonics in the Chalmers Master Program on Sound and Vibration in the Division of Applied Acoustics. After retiring, he continues his research in acoustics, as well as teaching and consulting. He has authored or coauthored more than 55 publications and 110 papers, including two books. He has presented many keynote lectures, led courses at international conferences on acoustics and noise control, and organized an international conference on acoustics. His main research areas include electroacoustics and audio, computer simulation of room acoustics, electroacoustic room acoustics enhancement, room acoustics of auditoria and small rooms, sound and vibration measurement technology, product sound quality, psychoacoustics, and musical acoustics. He is a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America, serves on the Audio Engineering Society’s Standards Committee on Acoustics, and was chair of its Technical Committee on Acoustics and Sound Reinforcement for 20 years. Klappentext A key part of the modern communication society, electroacoustic devices such as microphones and loudspeakers are used everywhere from cars and mobile phones to homes and sports arenas. This modern, accessible text explains the key scientific and engineering principles behind their design. It also examines the compromises that are necessary when designing transducers for use in the real world. The book covers both traditional audio and ultrasonic transducers and includes up-to-date material on arrays, radiation impedance, loudspeaker enclosure design,...
