Samenvatting:

This book is for practitioners in the measurement, prediction, assessment and mitigation of groundborne noise, as well as acoustics engineering students. It explains the sources of groundborne noise, how they transmit into the medium supporting them (or in which they are embedded), the range of wave types that result, how they are propagated through all the different forms of soil, rock or building structures that connect them to receptors, and how the vibration that is groundborne noise is transmitted into receiving structures, to be re-radiated as an acoustical phenomenon in rooms and other spaces. It is clear, readable and logical, with enough technical detail for an engineer without being needlessly complex.
