Review: Active control of sound and vibration has become an important area of development in recent years. The variations in the type and nature of the source and disturbance have led to the exploration of different control structures and design criteria. This book, in addition to providing the fundamentals of active sound and vibration control, presents new knowledge in the area, including theoretical developments, algorithmic developments and practical applications. Topics covered include: multichannel activity noise control, adaptive harmonic control, model-free iterative tuning, model-based control design for active vibration control, ASVC using neural networks, genetic algorithms for ASVC systems, and active noise control around the human head. The authors also discuss active control of microvibrators, vibration control of manipulators, and techniques of real-time processing.
