Electroacoustic transducers (EAT) are devices, which transform electric energy to energy of acoustic fluctuations. Principles of action, design of transducers for work in air and water as well as for non-destructive control are described in the book. New technologies of designing EAT, not only expanding designing possibilities, are described. They also allow to create transducers with improved characteristics. In particular, methods to increase target capacity (sound pressure), decrease working (resonant) frequency of transducers and expand frequencies of projectors and sound receivers are developed. Methods and control units of transducers in batch production of transducers are described, too.

Presents the latest and most comprehensive information about electro-acoustic transducers Describes new methods of electro-acoustic transducer design Includes new methods of measuring physical sizes and new constructions of electro-acoustic transducers Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
