Over the past two decades there have been many major new developments in the field of urban sound environment. Jian Kang introduces and examines these key developments, including:
the development of prediction methods for urban sound propagation
establishment and application of noise-mapping software
new noise control measures and design methods.
Also covered is the new EU directive on noise and the substantial actions it has brought about across Europe.
As the importance of soundscape, acoustic comfort and sound environment design have become widely recognized, Urban Sound Environments is a thoroughly useful book for students and practitioners in a wide range of fields, from urban planning and landscape through to architecture and acoustics.
