Course Overview

Acoustical and vibration measurements with the example of a
loudspeaker as a mass-spring-damper system. Signal processing  (Fast
Fourier Transform) is studied through different examples. Musical
instruments (flute and clarinet) are studied with the help of
Kundt’s tube. Different sound level meters are used to manipulate dB
and dB (A).
