This important book provides an account of the linear acoustics of basic isotropic/anisotropic structures excited by time-harmonic and transient mechanical forces and acoustic sources. Many examples are given to aid physical insight and to provide benchmark computations of sound radiation and sound scattering. The theoretical methods, developed originally for naval noise control problems, should find civil application in the acoustic modelling...

Michael Faraday was one of the most important scientists of the 19th century, helping to lay the foundations of the modern electricity industry. This third volume of his letters, covering the period 1841 to 1848, includes correspondence with scientists, artists, politicians and the military.

This volume of Faraday's correspondence with such luminaries as Brunel, Babbage and Schoenbein covers such diverse topics as terrestrial and atmospheric magnetism, the electrification of lighthouses, the theory of telegraphic retardation, and advice to the government on the war with Russia.

Volume 1 of this collection of the letters of Michael Faraday reflects his importance in the world of 19th-century science. They cover the years 1811 to 1831 and span his discoveries of electro-magnetic rotations and electro-magnetic induction as well as his other researches and teaching.

This second volume covers the 1830s, a period when Faraday pursued the consequences of his discovery of electromagnetic induction and revised the theories of electrochemistry and the nature of electricity. His correspondents include scientists, artists, politicians and military men.

The sixth volume of Faraday's correspondence contains letters from the end of 1860 to his death in 1867. The dominant topic of the 1860s is Faraday's involvement with the lighthouse service relating to his advice to Trinity House and the Board of Trade on matters such as electric light and the controversial issue of fog signals.
