Solving Problems in Theoretical Acoustics: Need Book Suggestions

[FredGarvin]

Does anyone happen to know of a book or other resource that has solved problems in theoretical acoustics? I am particularily interested in the basics like pressure fields from monopoles, dipoles and pulsating spheres in both the near and far fields. The book I currently own has plenty of equations, but absolutely no worked examples. I know that the numbers I am getting for certain things I am looking at are way too low. I must be doing something wrong, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what.

Any book/web site suggestions?

Thanks!

Foundations of Engineering Acoustics (Hardcover) <- click on link
by Frank J. Fahy

Check the TOC - chapters 5 and 6 (monopoles, dipoles and vibrating shpere)

There are also other book mentioned one can browse.

One book that I would highly recommend is "Acoustics: An Introduction" by Heinrich Kuttruff. It has a great balance of theoretical explanations and worked examples, including those related to pressure fields from monopoles, dipoles, and pulsating spheres in both near and far fields. It also covers a wide range of topics in acoustics, making it a comprehensive resource for solving problems in theoretical acoustics. Additionally, the book includes exercises and solutions, which can be helpful in identifying and correcting any mistakes in your calculations. I hope this suggestion helps and good luck with your studies!
