SHIPBOARD AIRBORNE NOISE CONTROL

This paper discusses selected examples of airborne noise control aboard ships. It is divided into three distinct parts with a question-and-answer period between each part. In the first section, the author discusses criteria, i.e., the goals or guarantees that we strive to achieve onboard the vessel. In the second part, he examines some of the newer or perhaps more innovative noise control techniques that are used today on various vessels. Finally, in the last part, he relates the types of noise control discussed in the second part to specific installations and, where appropriate, the results that were achieved.
