Wirtschaftsinformatik ist heute im Berufsleben fur alle Studierenden und alle Fach - und Fuhrungskrafte wichtig. AEhnlich wie Kenntnisse der englischen Sprache ist Wissen in diesem Bereich unerlasslich, wenn man im Beruf erfolgreich sein will. Ein Thema, dem sich Manager nicht entziehen koennen, weil es eine gestalterische Aufgabe von zentraler Bedeutung ist.

Noise pollution around airports, trains, and industries increasingly attracts environmental concern and regulation. Designers and researchers have intensified the use of large-eddy simulation (LES) for noise reduced industrial design and acoustical research. This book, written by 30 experts, presents the theoretical background of acoustics and of LES, followed by details about numerical methods, e.g. discretization schemes, boundary conditions, coupling aspects. Industrially relevant, hybrid RANS/LES techniques for acoustic source predictions are presented in detail. Many applications are featured ranging from simple geometries for mixing layers and jet flows to complex wing and car geometries. Selected applications include recent scientific investigations at industrial and university research institutions. Presently one can't offer perfect solution methodologies that address all relevant applications, however the book presents a state of the art collection of methods, tools and evaluation methodologies. The advantages and weaknesses of both the commercial and the research methodologies are carefully presented.
