As shown in figure 1 there are many possible paths for airborne and structureborne sound and vibration transmission between a sound source and receiver noise control involves 1 selecting a quiet source 2 optimizing room sound absorption and 3 designing propagation paths for minimal noise transmission. Industrial noise and vibration control industrial plant personnel frequently contact kinetics noise control for their recommendations on products to lower noise levels within their facilities kinetics engineers have successfully reduced noise levels by as much as 30 decibels by the application of products such as curtains. Kinetics noise control inc was established in 1958 as industrial consultants focused on controlling sound and vibration kinetics now produces the industrys largest selection of products and solutions that control airborne noise isolate structure borne vibration enhance room acoustics create quiet spaces and restrain non structural building systems
