  2. Acoustical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustical_engineering

    Acoustical engineering (also known as acoustic engineering) is the branch of engineering dealing with sound and vibration. It includes the application of acoustics, the science of sound and vibration, in technology. Acoustical engineers are typically concerned with the design, analysis and control of sound.

  3. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    A scientist who works in the field of acoustics is an acoustician while someone working in the field of acoustics technology may be called an acoustical engineer. The application of acoustics is present in almost all aspects of modern society with the most obvious being the audio and noise control industries.

  4. Acoustic quieting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_quieting

    Sound reflections: by limiting the reflection using many methods, e.g. by using acoustic absorption (deadening) materials, trapping the sound, opening a "window" to let sound out, etc. By analyzing the entire sequence of events, from the source to the observer, an acoustic engineer can provide many ways to quieten the machine.

  5. Architectural acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_acoustics

    Architectural acoustics (also known as building acoustics) is the science and engineering of achieving a good sound within a building and is a branch of acoustical engineering. [1] The first application of modern scientific methods to architectural acoustics was carried out by the American physicist Wallace Sabine in the Fogg Museum lecture room.

  6. Outline of acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_acoustics

    This typically involves studying the acoustics of archaeological sites and artefacts. [1] Aeroacoustics – study of noise generated by air movement, for instance via turbulence, and the movement of sound through the fluid air. This knowledge is applied in acoustical engineering to study how to quieten aircraft.

    Acoustics is a branch of continuum mechanics and is the study of sound, mechanical waves in gases, liquids, and solids. ... Acoustic wayfinding; Acoustical engineering;

  8. Acoustical measurements and instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustical_measurements...

    Analysis of sound and acoustics plays a role in such engineering tasks as product design, production test, machine performance, and process control. For instance, product design can require modification of sound level or noise for compliance with standards from ANSI, IEC, and ISO. The work might also involve design fine-tuning to meet market ...

  9. Loudspeaker acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker_acoustics

    Loudspeaker acoustics is a subfield of acoustical engineering concerned with the design of loudspeakers. [1] It focuses on the reproduction of sound and the parameters involved in doing so in actual equipment.
