Groundborne Noise

Autor Rupert Thornely-Taylor
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 aug 2026
This book is for practitioners in the measurement, prediction, assessment and mitigation of groundborne noise, as well as acoustics engineering students. It explains the sources of groundborne noise, how they transmit into the medium supporting them (or in which they are embedded), the range of wave types that result, how they are propagated through all the different forms of soil, rock or building structures that connect them to receptors, and how the vibration that is groundborne noise is transmitted into receiving structures, to be re-radiated as an acoustical phenomenon in rooms and other spaces. It is clear, readable and logical, with enough technical detail for an engineer without being needlessly complex.

Notă biografică

Rupert Thornely-Taylor is a Fellow of, and was a founder member of, the Institute of Acoustics, a Member of the Institute of Noise Control Engineering of the USA and a Fellow of the International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration. He has specialised exclusively in the subjects of noise, vibration and acoustics for more than 60 years. He has been an independent consultant in these subjects for the past 57 years and heads the Rupert Taylor Ltd consultancy practice. He is a past President and Honorary Member of the Association of Noise Consultants and a past Director of the International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration. He is the author of the Pelican book NOISE, and editor or co-author of many other books including the Association of Noise Consultants Guidelines “Measurement and Assessment of Groundborne Noise and Vibration”. He is a member of the Working group that produced ISO Standard 14837-1:2005 “Mechanical vibration - Ground-borne noise and vibration arising from rail systems - Part 1: General guidance” and ISO Standard 14837-32:2015 “Measurement of dynamic properties of the ground”. He has prepared reports on noise for the OECD. In 2016 the Institute of Acoustics awarded him its Rayleigh Medal for outstanding contributions to acoustics. In 2013 the Association of Noise Consultants awarded him their Outstanding Contribution Award. A high proportion of his work has been devoted to groundborne noise and vibration, which was the subject of his Rayleigh Medal lecture, and his plenary presentation at the 26th International Congress on Sound and Vibration in Montreal in 2019. He developed the FINDWAVE Finite-Difference-Time-Domain computer package which has been used for simulations of groundborne noise and vibration of many major developments including High Speed 2 and a wide range of buildings near railways and other sources of vibration in the UK, Spain, Scandinavia, Singapore and China.
