A room's acoustic character seems at once the most technical and the most mystical of concerns. Since the early Enlightenment, European architects have systematically endeavored to represent and control the propagation of sound in large interior spaces. Their work has been informed by the science of sound but has also been entangled with debates on style, visualization techniques, performance practices, and the expansion of the listening public. Echo's Chambers explores how architectural experimentation from the seventeenth through the mid-twentieth centuries laid the groundwork for concepts of acoustic space that are widely embraced in contemporary culture. It focuses on the role of echo and reverberation in the architecture of Pierre Patte, Claude-Nicolas Ledoux, Carl Ferdinand Langhans, and Le Corbusier, as well as the influential acoustic ideas of Athanasius Kircher, Richard Wagner, and Marshall McLuhan. Drawing on interdisciplinary theories of media and auditory culture, Joseph L. Clarke reveals how architecture has impacted the ways we continue to listen to, talk about, and creatively manipulate sound in the physical environment.

Het Conservatorium van Amsterdam verhuisde in april 2008 naar een prachtig nieuw gebouw ontworpen door Frits van Dongen op het Oosterdokseiland in Amsterdam. Na een lang proces is de ideale combinatie van een opleidingsinstituut en een kunstgebouw in één gerealiseerd; een gebouw met naast les- en studiekamers maar liefst vier zalen waar op professioneel niveau concerten en uitvoeringen kunnen worden gegeven. Architectuurjournalist Hilde de Haan beschrijft de architectonische hoogstandjes van het nieuwe gebouw en schetst een portret van het CvA als een goed geoutilleerd onderwijsinstituut, uitnodigende ontmoetingsplek en broeinest van muzikale mogelijkheden.

Welche Geräusche prägten einst den Alltag der Großstadt? Wie wurde die zunehmende Vielfalt der urbanen Lautsphäre von den Menschen wahrgenommen und beurteilt? Am Beispiel der Stadt Wien wird erstmals die auditive Kultur einer der wichtigsten europäischen Metropolen der Zeit um 1900 vorgestellt. Im Zentrum steht jene historische Periode, in der Wien sich zur modernen Großstadt entwickelte. Die ungeheure Dynamik dieser Zeit veränderte nicht nur das Stadtbild nachhaltig, sie ließ auch eine neuen Hör-Diskurs entstehen. Immer intensiver wandte sich die öffentliche und private Aufmerksamkeit dem Lärm zu. Und dies durchaus mit Ambivalenz. Denn der Lärm stellt sich als komplexes Phänomen dar, an dem -- paradigmatisch und bis heute -- Fragen der Stadtentwicklung, der Kultur- und Zivilisationskritik, aber auch ökonomische Konflikte abgehandelt werden.

In-operation vibration monitoring for complex mechanical structures and rotating machines is of key importance in many industrial areas such as aeronautics (wings and other structures subject to strength), automobile (gearbox mounting with a sports car body), rail transportation, power engineering (rotating machines, core and pipes of nuclear power plants), and civil engineering (large buildings subject to hurricanes or earthquakes, bridges, dams, offshore structures). Tools for the detection and the diagnosis of small changes in vibratory characteristics are particularly useful to set up a preventive maintenance policy based on the actual evolution of the state of the monitored machine or structure, as opposed to systematic a priori planning. Ambient Vibration Monitoring is the backbone of such structural assessment monitoring and control. It provides the possibility to gain useful data under ambient conditions for the assessment of structures and components. Written by a widely respected authority in this area, Ambient Vibration Monitoring describes the current practice of ambient vibration methodologies illustrated by a number of practical examples._ Designed to aid the practical engineer with their understanding of the topic, it is the culmination of many years of practical research and includes numerous & real world' examples._ It also provides information on applicable solutions. This book will enable not only_practitioners (in civil, mechanical and aerospace engineering), but also researchers and students,_to learn more about the theory and practical applications of this subject.
