| Title | Acoustics, Information, and Communication : Memorial Volume in Honor of Manfred R. Schroeder |
| Author(s) | Xiang, Ning;Sessler, Gerhard M |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
| Description | XVIII, 461 p. 226 illus., 91 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book explores the life and scientific legacy of Manfred Schroeder through personal reflections, scientific essays, and Schroeder???s own memoirs. Reflecting the wide range of Schroeder???s activities, the first part of the book contains thirteen articles written by his colleagues and former students. Topics discussed include his early, pioneering contributions to the understanding of statistical room acoustics and to the measurement of reverberation time; his introduction of digital signal processing methods into acoustics; his use of ray tracing methods to study sound decay in rooms; and his achievements in echo and feedback suppression and in noise reduction. Other chapters cover his seminal research in speech processing including the use of predictive coding to reduce audio bandwidth which led to various code-excited linear prediction schemes, today used extensively for speech coding. Several chapters discuss Schroeder???s work in low-peak factor signals, number theory, and maximum-length sequences with key applications in hearing research, diffraction gratings, artificial reverberators, and de-correlation techniques for enhancing subjective envelopment in surround sound. In style, the articles range from truly scientific to conversationally personal. In all contributions, the relationship between the current research presented and Manfred Schroeder???s own fields of interest is, in general, evident. The second part of the book consists of Schroeder???s own memoirs, written over the final decade of his life. These recollections shed light on many aspects not only of Schroeder???s life but also on that of many of his colleagues, friends, and contemporaries. They portray political, social, and scientific events over a period that extends from pre-war to the present. These memoirs, written in an inimitable and witty style, are full of information, entertaining, and fun to read, providing key insight into the life and work of one of the greatest acousticians of the 20th century. Reflects on the life, work, and legacy of one of the greatest acousticians of the 20th century Features articles by leading researchers on the implications of Schroeder???s research today Covers a wide range of topics, from room acoustics, noise reduction, physical acoustics, and underwater acoustics to transducers, speech signal processing, and number-theory applications |

| Title | Principles of Musical Acoustics |
| Author(s) | Hartmann, William M |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2013. |
| Description | XIV, 348 p. 180 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Principles of Musical Acoustics focuses on the basic principles in the science and technology of music. Musical examples and specific musical instruments demonstrate the principles. The book begins with a study of vibrations and waves, in that order. These topics constitute the basic physical properties of sound, one of two pillars supporting the science of musical acoustics. The second pillar is the human element, the physiological and psychological aspects of acoustical science. The perceptual topics include loudness, pitch, tone color, and localization of sound. With these two pillars in place, it is possible to go in a variety of directions. The book treats in turn, the topics of room acoustics, audio both analog and digital, broadcasting, and speech. It ends with chapters on the traditional musical instruments, organized by family. The mathematical level of this book assumes that the reader is familiar with elementary algebra. Trigonometric functions, logarithms and powers also appear in the book, but computational techniques are included as these concepts are introduced, and there is further technical help in appendices |

| Title | The Science of String Instruments |
| Author(s) | Rossing, Thomas D |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2010. |
| Description | VIII, 470 p. 202 illus., 56 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Many performing musicians, as well as instrument builders, are coming to realize the importance of understanding the science of musical instruments. This book explains how string instruments produce sound. It presents basic ideas in simple language, and it also translates some more sophisticated ideas in non-technical language. It should be of interest to performers, researchers, and instrument makers alike |

| Title | Acoustical Holography : Volume 1 Proceedings of the First International Symposium on Acoustical Holography, held at the Douglas Advanced Research Laboratories, Huntington Beach, California December 14???15, 1967 |
| Author(s) | Metherell, A |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer US, 1969. |
| Description | XVIII, 294 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Only a space limitation of 115 seats prevented this First International Symposium on Acoustical Holography from having an attendance of over 250. Unfortunately, the size of the auditorium of the Douglas Advanced Research Laboratories required that attendance be by invitation only, and many deserving and interested scientists could not be present. This volume presents the proceedings of the symposium, and hopefully will help compen?? sate those individuals who were unable to attend. The symposium itself consisted of sixteen formal papers. The seven?? teenth, by Dr. P. Greguss, was not received in time to be read but is included in these proceedings. The presence of Professor Dennis Gabor considerably enhanced the informal sessions, which frequently became as spirited as one might expect in a new field. Dr. H. M. A. El-Sum, a consultant to the Douglas Advanced Research Laboratories and a pioneer in the field of holography, set the stage with the first paper. He provided a general introduction to the physical principles and practical methods involved in optical and acoustical holography. His paper also included a summary of various specific techniques currently used in sound holography, with the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations involved for each approach |
