This includes acoustic field visualization methods, field imaging techniques, wireless sensor networks, and the Internet of Things (IoT); optimization methods using genetic algorithms; acoustic quality assessment methods for rooms; and methods for measuring ultrasonic noise in the frequency range of 10-40 kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is a valuable resource for individuals and students interested in the areas of acoustic and sound engineering as it provides: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe latest techniques and methods in the field of noise reduction and improvement of acoustic comfort, \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eInnovative and advanced acoustic field visualization techniques for those with an auditory impairment, \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplains noise reduction through proper workplace design, \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses use of wireless sensor networks and the IoT for monitoring noise, and\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides acoustic quality assessment methods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"The authors' intention to expound on advanced issues in a lucid and accessible way was rewarded with success. In the book, an expert will find a number of hints helpful in solving actual problems, whereas a layperson will be able to form a view on challenges facing contemporary technology. What should also be emphasized is the book's soundness in documenting these advanced theses and postulates with diligently conducted empirical research.\u003cbr\u003e Despite a wide thematic range, the book is written consistently and under no circumstances can be considered a collection of randomly selected problems. The content corresponds fully to the title. The authors are consistent in acquainting the reader with topical scientific issues concerning assessment of acoustic hazards and the methodology of combating them.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e-Professor Zbigniew Dąbrowski, BEng, PhD, DSc, Warsaw University of Technology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dariusz Pleban\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367499258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367499259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/02\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.50w x 1.20d","brand":"Dariusz Pleban","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44126642733311,"sku":"9780367499259","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d5853995-0a5f-4991-b6cb-41871821b5e4.jpg?v=1687449328","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/occupational-noise-and-workplace-acoustics-dariusz-pleban-9780367499259","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
