Simulation of acoustic behaviour is essential for the design of a wide range of products and living spaces and the prediction of noise in the environment. Computers provide a unique tool for the analysis and design of these problems and have become instrumental in achieving optimum solutions.

This book contains the proceedings of the Second International Conference on Computational Acoustics and its Environmental Applications. The papers, which come from leading experts in both academic research and industry, are divided under the following headings: Numerical and Computational Techniques; Aero-Acoustics; Building Acoustics; Wave Propagation; Sound Systems Design and Experiment.
