AcousticsFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Acoustics is the interdisciplinary science that deals with the study of all mechanical
waves in gases, liquids, and solids including vibration, sound, ultrasound and
infrasound. A scientist who works in the field of acoustics is an acoustician while
someone working in the field of acoustics technology may be called an acoustical
engineer. The application of acoustics can be seen in almost all aspects of modern
society with the most obvious being the audio and noise control industries.
Hearing is one of the most crucial means of survival in the animal world, and speech
is one of the most distinctive characteristics of human development and culture.
Accordingly, the science of acoustics spreads across many facets of human society
—music, medicine, architecture, industrial production, warfare and more. Art, craft,
science and technology have provoked one another to advance the whole, as in many other fields of knowledge. Robert Bruce
Lindsay's 'Wheel of Acoustics' is a well accepted overview of the various fields in acoustics.[1]
The word "acoustic" is derived from the Greek word ακουστικός (akoustikos), meaning "of or for hearing, ready to hear"[2]
and that from ἀκουστός (akoustos), "heard, audible",[3] which in turn derives from the verb ἀκούω (akouo), "I hear".[4]
The Latin synonym is "sonic", after which the term sonics used to be a synonym for acoustics[5] and later a branch of
acoustics.[6] Frequencies above and below the audible range are called "ultrasonic" and "infrasonic", respectively.

The fundamental and the first 6
overtones of a vibrating string. The
earliest records of the study of this
phenomenon are attributed to the
philosopher Pythagoras in the 6th
century BC.
Principles of acoustics were applied
since ancient times : Roman theatre in
the city of Amman.
History of acoustics
Early research in acoustics
In the 6th century BC, the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras wanted to know
why some musical intervals seemed more beautiful than others, and he found
answers in terms of numerical ratios representing the harmonic overtone series on a
string. He is reputed to have observed that when the lengths of vibrating strings are
expressible as ratios of integers (e.g. 2 to 3, 3 to 4), the tones produced will be
harmonious. If, for example, a string sounds the note C when plucked, a string twice
as long will sound the same note an octave lower. The tones in between are then
given by 16:9 for D, 8:5 for E, 3:2 for F, 4:3 for G, 6:5 for A, and 16:15 for B, in
ascending order.[7] Aristotle (384-322 BC) understood that sound consisted of
contractions and expansions of the air "falling upon and striking the air which is next
to it...", a very good expression of the nature of wave motion. In about 20 BC, the
Roman architect and engineer Vitruvius wrote a treatise on the acoustic properties of
theatres including discussion of interference, echoes, and reverberation—the
beginnings of architectural acoustics.[8]
The physical understanding of acoustical
processes advanced rapidly during and
after the Scientific Revolution. Mainly
Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) but also
Marin Mersenne (1588–1648), independently, discovered the complete laws of
vibrating strings (completing what Pythagoras and Pythagoreans had started 2000
years earlier). Galileo wrote "Waves are produced by the vibrations of a sonorous
body, which spread through the air, bringing to the tympanum of the ear a stimulus
which the mind interprets as sound", a remarkable statement that points to the
beginnings of physiological and psychological acoustics. Experimental measurements
of the speed of sound in air were carried out successfully between 1630 and 1680
by a number of investigators, prominently Mersenne. Meanwhile Newton (1642–
1727) derived the relationship for wave velocity in solids, a cornerstone of physical
acoustics (Principia, 1687).
Age of Enlightenment and onward
The eighteenth century saw major advances in acoustics as mathematicians applied the new techniques of calculus to elaborate
theories of sound wave propagation. In the nineteenth century the major figures of mathematical acoustics were Helmholtz in
Germany, who consolidated the field of physiological acoustics, and Lord Rayleigh in England, who combined the previous
knowledge with his own copious contributions to the field in his monumental work The Theory of Sound (1877). Also in the
19th century, Wheatstone, Ohm, and Henry developed the analogy between electricity and acoustics.
The twentieth century saw a burgeoning of technological applications of the large body of scientific knowledge that was by then
in place. The first such application was Sabine’s groundbreaking work in architectural acoustics, and many others followed.
Underwater acoustics was used for detecting submarines in the first World War. Sound recording and the telephone played
important roles in a global transformation of society. Sound measurement and analysis reached new levels of accuracy and
sophistication through the use of electronics and computing. The ultrasonic frequency range enabled wholly new kinds of
application in medicine and industry. New kinds of transducers (generators and receivers of acoustic energy) were invented
and put to use.
Fundamental concepts of acoustics
The study of acoustics revolves around the generation, propagation and reception of mechanical waves and vibrations.

The steps shown in the above diagram can be found in any acoustical event or process. There are many kinds of cause, both
natural and volitional. There are many kinds of transduction process that convert energy from some other form into sonic
energy, producing a sound wave. There is one fundamental equation that describes sound wave propagation, but the
phenomena that emerge from it are varied and often complex. The wave carries energy throughout the propagating medium.
Eventually this energy is transduced again into other forms, in ways that again may be natural and/or volitionally contrived. The
final effect may be purely physical or it may reach far into the biological or volitional domains. The five basic steps are found
equally well whether we are talking about an earthquake, a submarine using sonar to locate its foe, or a band playing in a rock
concert.
The central stage in the acoustical process is wave propagation. This falls within the domain of physical acoustics. In fluids,
sound propagates primarily as a pressure wave. In solids, mechanical waves can take many forms including longitudinal waves,
transverse waves and surface waves.
Acoustics looks first at the pressure levels and frequencies in the sound wave. Transduction processes are also of special
importance.
Wave propagation: pressure levels
Main article: Sound pressure
In fluids such as air and water, sound waves propagate as disturbances in the
ambient pressure level. While this disturbance is usually small, it is still noticeable to
the human ear. The smallest sound that a person can hear, known as the threshold of
hearing, is nine orders of magnitude smaller than the ambient pressure. The loudness
of these disturbances is called the sound pressure level (SPL), and is measured on a
logarithmic scale in decibels.
Wave propagation: frequency
Physicists and acoustic engineers tend to discuss sound pressure levels in terms of
frequencies, partly because this is how our ears interpret sound. What we
experience as "higher pitched" or "lower pitched" sounds are pressure vibrations having a higher or lower number of cycles per
second. In a common technique of acoustic measurement, acoustic signals are sampled in time, and then presented in more
meaningful forms such as octave bands or time frequency plots. Both these popular methods are used to analyze sound and
better understand the acoustic phenomenon.

The entire spectrum can be divided into three sections: audio, ultrasonic, and infrasonic. The audio range falls between 20 Hz
and 20,000 Hz. This range is important because its frequencies can be detected by the human ear. This range has a number of
applications, including speech communication and music. The ultrasonic range refers to the very high frequencies: 20,000 Hz
and higher. This range has shorter wavelengths which allow better resolution in imaging technologies. Medical applications such
as ultrasonography and elastography rely on the ultrasonic frequency range. On the other end of the spectrum, the lowest
frequencies are known as the infrasonic range. These frequencies can be used to study geological phenomena such as
earthquakes.
Analytic instruments such as the Spectrum analyzer facilitate visualization and measurement of acoustic signals and their
properties. The Spectrogram produced by such an instrument is a graphical display of the time varying pressure level and
frequency profiles which give a specific acoustic signal its defining character.
Transduction in acoustics
A transducer is a device for converting one form of energy into another. In an
electroacoustic context, this means converting sound energy into electrical energy (or
vice versa). Electroacoustic transducers include loudspeakers, microphones,
hydrophones and sonar projectors. These devices convert a sound pressure wave to
or from an electric signal. The most widely used transduction principles are
electromagnetism, electrostatics and piezoelectricity.
The transducers in most common loudspeakers (e.g. woofers and tweeters), are
electromagnetic devices that generate waves using a suspended diaphragm driven by
an electromagnetic voice coil, sending off pressure waves. Electret microphones and
condenser microphones employ electrostatics—as the sound wave strikes the
microphone's diaphragm, it moves and induces a voltage change. The ultrasonic
systems used in medical ultrasonography employ piezoelectric transducers. These
are made from special ceramics in which mechanical vibrations and electrical fields are interlinked through a property of the
material itself.
Acoustician
An acoustician is an expert in the science of sound.[9]
Education
There are many types of acoustician, but they usually have a Bachelor's degree or higher qualification. Some possess a degree
in acoustics, while others enter the discipline via studies in fields such as physics or engineering. Much work in acoustics
requires a good grounding in mathematics and science. Many acoustic scientists work in research and development. Some
conduct basic research to advance our knowledge of the perception (e.g. hearing, psychoacoustics or neurophysiology) of
speech, music and noise. Other acoustic scientists advance understanding of how sound is affected as it moves through
environments, e.g. Underwater acoustics, Architectural acoustics or Structural acoustics. Others areas of work are listed under
subdisciplines below. Acoustic scientists work in government, university and private industry laboratories. Many go on to work
in Acoustical Engineering. Some positions, such as Faculty (academic staff) require a Doctor of Philosophy.
