This is the first book to offer a complete and rigorous study of sound propagation and scattering in moving media which have regular and random inhomogeneities in adiabatic sound speed, density and medium velocity. It applies to outdoor noise control, acoustical detection and ranging in the atmosphere, and acoustal remote sensing of the atmosphere and oceans.

Modern concert halls and opera houses are now very specialized buildings with special acoustical characteristics.This is an important resource for architects, engineers and auditorium technicians.

Covering all aspects of sound and vibration in buildings, this book explores room acoustics, sound insulation, and noise and vibration problems connected to service equipment and external sources.

Globally there is much interest in environmental vibrations, as caused by all other man-made sources. This book contains the proceedings of the International Symposium on Environmental Vibrations: Prediction, Monitoring and Evaluation (ISVE2005, Okayama, Japan 20-22 September, 2005).
