General objectives
On completion of the course, the student is expected to be able to do the following:

1. Name the basic knowledge of sound wave propagation ;
2. Identify the acoustic sound levels and handle these sound levels ;
3. Modeling the generation of waves by simple sources (acoustic monopole and dipole);
4. Determine the effects of containment on sound wave propagation (acoustic cavity, tubes, waveguides, etc.);
5. Identify suitable means for acoustic measurement.
Content
- Acoustic waves (linear acoustic equations, propagation equations, acoustic intensity and power, plane and spherical waves),
- Sound levels ;
- Elementary acoustic sources (monopole and dipole) and extended acoustic sources;
- Cavities and waveguides, tubes, resonators and filters, ;
- Acoustic metrology (sound levels, acoustic spectra, microphones, laboratory and in-situ measurements, measurements of intensity and acoustic power).

Assessment(s)
Nature Coefficient Observable objectives
1 To assess the ability to use the theoretical knowledge learned in class in a simple concrete context (1 to 5) 1 The written exam consists of a series of questions on the course followed by several exercises proposing a simple acoustic configuration to study.
