Symposium
The SCIENCE OF ACOUSTICS
serving the Food, the Nutrition and the Environment
From protection system to innovative technologies for agriculture and fisheries
Auditorium Cascina Triulza, EXPO
Milan (Italy), Friday 25 September 2015
The science of acoustics range in very large fields. Referring
to the theme of the Symposium, they care not only of the
relationship, often in conflict, between noise and environment, but also of the protection and promotion of the territory, of the prevention of hydro-geological disasters and of
risks for worker’s health, of the management of natural reTime Table
