Course Description: This is a new technical elective on the emerging multidisciplinary field of acoustics.
The objectives of this course are to introduce the basic concepts of acoustical analysis and applications
of engineering practice. Topics covered will include principles of vibration, acoustic wave equations,
waves in solids and fluid media, reflection and transmission at interfaces, absorptions and dispersion,
Green’s function, waveguides, resonators and filters, noise, ultrasound, nondestructive evaluation,
acoustical imaging, selected topics in ocean acoustics, noise control, environmental and architectural
acoustics. Cr. 3. Lecture 3 hrs, lab 1hr.
Prerequisites: ELE 217, EGN248.
Topics covered:
Fundamental of vibration
Longitudinal motion
Transverse motion
Wave equation and solution
Sound impedance, energy and intensity
Sound in fluid and solid

o Psychoacoustics
o Etc.
Assignments: All homework and lab reports are due at the beginning of class on the given due date.
No late work will be accepted. Solutions should be communicated in an acceptable,
standard engineering format. Students are encouraged to work together and help each
other. However, students should never copy from another source, nor allow their work
to be copied. You will be asked to do a semester project, and give a presentation at the
end of the semester.
Grading: Quizzes and Exams 40%
Homework and lab reports 30%
Semester projects 30%
Computer Usage: Students will use a programming language and/or software package, e.g.
Matlab, MathCad, Mathematica to analysis data.
Course Goals: The goal of this course is to give students an understanding of the fundamental
concepts and principles of engineering acoustics. Students will learn the mathematical
formulations of vibration and acoustics; study different acoustic applications, able to
function effectively on teams; conduct, analysis and interpret experiments and apply
experimental results to improve process.
ABET program outcome achieved:
Ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering
Ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering programs Ability to communicate effectively Ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for
engineering practice
