This technical book focuses on the acoustic analysis of weak points in a comprehensible manner. This reliably helps the designer and acoustician to understand the noise development of machines and systems and to develop suitable primary and secondary noise reduction measures. Selected application examples from practice support the user in developing his own ideas for the implementation of product-related noise reductions.

Professor Dr.-Ing. Gh. Reza Sinambari taught, among other things, the subjects of sound and vibration protection, emission technology acoustics and construction acoustics at the FH Bingen. He was managing director of the company IBS, Ingenieurbüro für Schall- und Schwingungstechnik GmbH, Frankenthal, for approx. 27 years, where he currently works as a consultant.
