Sound and Mathematics

Technical Reference Document

Overview

This technical reference explores the mathematical foundations of acoustics, focusing on three interconnected concepts: power spectral density, Fourier transforms, and periodicities. The document provides both theoretical understanding and practical applications for audio professionals and students of sound.

Topics covered include how sound energy distributes across frequencies, the mathematical machinery for converting between time and frequency domains, and the detection of hidden rhythmic patterns in acoustic phenomena.
