Features: This book is a work on several applications of military acoustics in military engineering. The book consists of eight chapters. Chapters 2 to 3 elaborate on the characteristics of special sound waves in weapons and their applications in weapon performance measurement; Chapters 4 and 5 take firearm pulse noise and shock waves as examples, focusing on the introduction of special microphones, key points in the development of testing instruments, and their calibration techniques; Chapters 6 and 7 reflect the research of domestic and international studies in acoustic non-lethal weapons, acoustic salute systems, and other fields; Chapter 8 briefly discusses several examples of the propagation and applications of sound waves generated by weapons in non-air media. This book is intended for researchers engaged in acoustics, weapon research, and weapon performance testing, and can also serve as a reference for faculty and students of relevant disciplines in higher education institutions. It will be beneficial for personnel engaged in the management of weapon equipment.
