Summary

In an age increasingly concerned with environmental quality, "Noise Reduction Engineering" tackles the challenge of minimizing unwanted sound, particularly in purification devices. The book emphasizes integrating acoustic design principles from the outset, rather than treating noise control as an afterthought.

 
Readers will discover the importance of understanding acoustic measurement, including decibel testing, to quantify and characterize noise emissions effectively. Did you know noise pollution can impact not just comfort but also overall environmental quality?

 
The book showcases technologies for achieving silent operation, such as damping materials and active noise control.

 
This comprehensive guide approaches noise reduction holistically, blending theoretical concepts with practical applications. It progresses from fundamental acoustic concepts to advanced noise reduction technologies, supported by case studies and experimental data.

 
The book highlights how noise reduction connects with mechanical engineering, materials science, and environmental engineering. By focusing on purification devices, it offers a targeted approach to noise control, advocating for its incorporation throughout the entire product design process.

Making Bird-Friendly Birdhouses...

Melvin "Bird Man Mel" Toellner,...

As popular as birdhouses are, many are designed with aesthetics in mind, rather than the bird's preferences and needs. Not so for the projects in Making Bird-Friendly Birdhouses. Lifelong birder Mel "Bird Man Mel" Toellner and pro woodworker Matt Maguire walk readers step-by-step through 15+ projects for safe birdhouses that birds find conducive to their natural nesting habitats. They begin with a comprehensive introduction to why birdhouses are so important, and why the birdhouses should be created with specific birds in mind like bluebirds, wrens, chickadees, owls and even bats! With additional sections on distribution maps, detailed plans, mounting instructions, and tips on attracting birds to your yard, it has everything you need to create a successful backyard haven for your winged friends.
