Caspar Henderson: A Book of Noises

A Book of Noises

Notes on the Auraculous

Manchester Physics Series

Accessible, student-friendly textbook on a core subject in undergraduate physics courses, updated with more worked examples, exercises, and everyday problems Emphasizing physical principles rather than mathematics, Vibrations and Waves, 2nd edition delivers a comprehensive and logical overview of the subject. Each topic begins with a discussion of the physical characteristics of the motion or system. The mathematics is kept as clear as possible and includes elegant mathematical descriptions where appropriate. This book features many worked examples, frequently drawn from everyday life (e.g., why microwave ovens typically have rotating turntables), along with more cutting-edge ones. Each chapter includes problems ranging in difficulty from simple to challenging and provides hints for solving problems. This new edition has been updated with even more worked examples, exercises, and relations to everyday problems. Vibrations and Waves discusses sample topics including: Simple harmonic motion, covering displacement, velocity, acceleration, and the physics of small vibrationsThe damped harmonic oscillator, covering light, leavy, and critical damping in its equation of motionTraveling waves, covering the transport of energy by a wave, waves at discontinuities, and waves in two and three dimensionsThe dispersion of waves, covering phase and group velocities and the superposition of waves in non-dispersive mediaInterference and diffraction of waves, covering Young's double-slit experiment and the Michelonson spectral interferometer Vibrations and Waves is an essential textbook for all readers learning about waves and vibrations for the first time, either on their own or through an undergraduate or advanced undergraduate course.

This graduate textbook provides an introduction to quantum gravity, when spacetime is two-dimensional.

Elementary Introduction to Quantum Geometry

This unique outline of the basic principles and methods for prediction and control of noise and vibration from ventilation systems includes developments on flow-generated noise prediction, assessment methods for the performance of vibration isolation, noise control using periodic Helmholtz resonators, and psychoacoustic assessment.

"A well-written, keenly observed, theoretically rich, and historically unique account of life in Hanoi during the first year of the pandemic. It provides a significant expansion of our knowledge of the local-level workings of state power during the pandemic and a theoretically robust exploration of the acoustics of disaster governance."--Tine Mette Gammeltoft, author of Haunting Images: A Cultural Account of Selective Reproduction in Vietnam "This is a fascinating and ambitious text that brings together the experiences of COVID, still ongoing and not quite over, across multiple temporalities and localities. Sonic Socialism does tremendous work in being one of the first ethnographic accounts coming out of the COVID era."--Jennifer Hsieh, Assistant Professor of Anthropology, University of Michigan "Christina Schwenkel's turn toward 'sensory attunement' and sonic relations is breathtaking. She fled the US for lockdown in Hanoi and placed her trust in Vietnamese care campaigns. Her autoethnographic soundwalks through her neighborhood and into the nation opened my ears. And how she listens! Schwenkel is already the go-to scholar on postsocialist aesthetics, humanitarian practices, and infrastructural theory. Her deep knowledge of Vietnam comes together powerfully in this book as she takes a giant step into sound studies, offering new insights into Vietnam, the pandemic, and a noisy public sphere."--Deborah Wong, Professor Emerita of Music, University of California, Riverside

Transformations: Studies in the History of Science and Technology

The transformation of acoustics into electro-acoustics, a field at the intersection of science and technology, guided by electrical engineering, industry, and the military. At the end of the nineteenth century, acoustics was a science of musical sounds; the musically trained ear was the ultimate reference. Just a few decades into the twentieth century, acoustics had undergone a transformation from a scientific field based on the understanding of classical music to one guided by electrical engineering, with industrial and military applications. In this book, Roland Wittje traces this transition, from the late nineteenth-century work of Hermann Helmholtz to the militarized research of World War I and media technology in the 1930s. Wittje shows that physics in the early twentieth century was not only about relativity and atomic structure but encompassed a range of experimental, applied, and industrial research fields. The emergence of technical acoustics and electroacoustics illustrates a scientific field at the intersection of science and technology. Wittje starts with Helmholtz's and Rayleigh's work and its intersection with telegraphy and early wireless, and continues with the industrialization of acoustics during World War I, when sound measurement was automated and electrical engineering and radio took over the concept of noise. Researchers no longer appealed to the musically trained ear to understand sound but to the thinking and practices of electrical engineering. Finally, Wittje covers the demilitarization of acoustics during the Weimar Republic and its remilitarization at the beginning of the Third Reich. He shows how technical acoustics fit well with the Nazi dismissal of pure science, representing everything that "German Physics" under National Socialism should be: experimental, applied, and relevant to the military.

Transforming Science and Sound

The Age of Electroacoustics

Elastic Wave Propagation in Structures and Materials initiates with fundamentals covering spectral analysis, computation of wave parameters, wave propagation in 1-D isotropic waveguides, wave dispersion in 2-D waveguides. Wave propagation in different media including non-local elasticity models is addressed backed by codes and homework problems.

Elastic Wave Propagation in Structures and Materials

Based on years of teaching experience, this book provides a clearly structured and accessible introduction to the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, tailored for undergraduate students.The text builds a strong conceptual and mathematical foundation while promoting intuitive understanding and critical thinking. Students progress from basic concepts such as wave mechanics to more advanced topics within matrix mechanics. Complex concepts are presented in a diligent and understandable way, achieving a balance between conceptual insight and mathematical rigor without oversimplifying the subject.Thoroughly class-tested, this book is designed to support both classroom instruction and independent study. It will serve as a great tool for undergraduates studying introductory and intermediate quantum mechanics, as well as modern physics and quantum systems for engineers.
