More information about English language requirements SelectionSelection BCourse Aim After the course the student should have acquired the capabilities necessary to: • Choose appropriate measurement and analysis methods to evaluate the risk and disturbance that the noise and/or vibration causes (according to legislation) • Analyse sound and vibration signals to produce basic data for decision-making of suitable measures to reduce the disturbance • Calculate appropriate measures to reduce noise and vibration and calculate the effect of the measuresContents • Fundamental acoustics • Legislation (sound and vibration) • Measurement techniques • Hearing • Structural acoustics • Room and building acoustics • Sound insulation • Effects of noise and vibration • Vibration isolation • Sound designRealization The course content is presented and covered by lectures, demonstrations, problem solving, mathematical modelling and laboratory experiments. Laboratory experiments and mathematical modelling are compulsory and solved in groups.Examination Written examination based on the theoretical content and its applications. Written reports regarding laboratory experiments and mathematical modelling tasks are compulsory.ExaminerRoger JohnssonLiterature.
