xxxi, 595 p. ; 24 cm. "Based on twenty years of teaching, this text covers electric acoustic transducers such as microphones and loudspeakers, with additional material on array, radiation impedance, acoustic center, and modern loudspeaker enclosures. It include appendices on basic filter theory, electrical circuit theory, and homework problems in each chapter. Students can easily grasp the key scientific and engineering principles necessary to understand the practical design methods. It also contains information on how the rooms in which these transducers are used influence their acoustical behavior and how the properties of such transducers is assessed"-- Introduction Introduction to Electroacoustic Systems Sound and Its Properties Waves in Membranes and Plates Circuits and Circuit Components Electromechanical Analogies Electroacoustical Analogies Conversion between Analogies Transducer Operating Principles Radiation and Impedance Sound Source and Acoustic Environment Directivity Microphone and Sound Field Microphones Electrodynamic Loudspeaker Drivers Baffle and Box Vented Box Loudspeakers Transmission Line Loudspeakers Horns Gradient Loudspeakers Drivers Using Flexible Diaphragms Multiway Loudspeakers Active Loudspeakers Headphones and Earphones High-Frequency Transducers Appendix A: Introduction to Electric Components and Classic Circuit Theory Appendix B: Filters and Filter Functions Appendix C: Magnetic Fields and Forces Appendix D: Time-Domain Approach to Directivity Appendix E: Sound-Absorbing Materials Appendix F: Resonance in Boxes and Rooms Appendix G: Level Definitions Index Mendel Kleiner.
