Structure-Borne Sound is a thorough introduction to structural vibrations with emphasis on
audio frequencies and the associated radiation of sound. The book presents in-depth discussions
of fundamental principles and basic problems in order to enable the reader to understand and
solve his own problems. It includes chapters dealing with measurement and generation of
vibrations and sound various types of structural wave motion structural damping and its
effects impedances and vibration responses of the important types of structures as well as
with attenuation of vibrations and sound radiation from structures. For the third edition the
author fundamentally revised and newly organized the contents of the work. Nevertheless the
intention has been to preserve the style of the previous editions namely to focus on the
fundamentals enabling the reader to analyse further problems.
