This is a self-contained monograph on human voice. It systematically expounds a theory of voice production initiated by Leonhard Euler, through an analysis of large amount of human voice data, especially simultaneously acquired voice signals and electroglottograph signals, as well as temporal variations of pressures directly below and above the vocal folds. Its contents include the physics and physiology of human voice production, parametrical representations of voice signals, and technology applications. Background knowledge on general acoustics and mathematical tools pertinent to...

This definitive guide covers the design and application of absorbers and diffusers in acoustics. Surface diffusion is a relatively young subject area, and diffuser design, application and characterisation are often not well understood. Although there is greater knowledge of absorption, it is also informed by new research. As two of the main design tools for altering the acoustic conditions of rooms, the correct use of absorbers and diffusers is important to the creation of quality acoustics. This text details the evolution and the current state of the art in diffuser and absorber research...

Durch die Kombination verschiedener Messtechnikkonzepte im Bereich der Korperschallmessung und der Verwendung detaillierter Signalanalyseverfahren kann Daniel Hrdina ein gesamtheitliches Verstandnis der Korperschallleitung uber den Kurbeltrieb eines Verbrennungsmotors darstellen. Dabei untersucht er die Sensitivitat auf verschiedene Parameter im inneren Leitweg und in den Anregungsbedingungen. Als einflussreichsten Faktor identifiziert der Autor die Druckanstiegsrate - und damit die Einspritzparameter. Darauf aufbauend fuhrt er den Begriff des betriebspunktabhangigen...
