Jens Holger Rindel is currently senior consultant at Multiconsult in Norway and senior researcher at Odeon A/S in Denmark. Until 2007 he was Professor in acoustics at the Technical University of Denmark. He is also past President of the Nordic Acoustical Association, and past Chairman of the Technical Committee for Building and Room Acoustics of the European Association of Acoustical Societies. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Acoustics and of the Acoustical Society of America.
"This book deserves a place on the book shelves of any acoustical
consultant, acoustical academic or acoustical researcher who works
on sound insulation."-- John Davy, RMIT University, Australia"Mr.
Rindel is a very renowned person in the field of Building
Acoustics, with an extremely rich life time of experience, which
allows the readers and users - be them technicians, engineers or
practitioners - an overall set of scientific and technical
information that certainly will contribute for the development of
better professionals and acoustic quality of buildings."-- Jorge
Parício, National Laboratory for Civil Engineering, Portugal"The
author has an extensive background in the subject of building
acoustics and he draws upon his lecture materials, his publications
and his experience as a consultant to present subject matter and
examples that will be useful to both students and consultants." --
Jeffrey Mahn, National Research Council Canada"Statistical energy
analysis and flanking calculations were not a part of my acoustics
education. I have had to learn these 'on the fly' and I anticipate
that this book will be very valuable." -- Wayland Dong, Veneklasen
Associates"The book has plenty of informative illustrations, and
the presentation style and composition are suited for beginners and
advanced users."-- Marius Mickaitis, Vilnius Gediminas Technical
University, Lithuania
