The main aim of the (36^th) International Conference „ACOUSTICS 2024 High Tatras“ is to exchange theoretical and practical knowledge from various fields of acoustics focusing mainly on the properties of special wood products, building materials and the current issues connected with noise and vibrations and their impact on humans as well as on the environment. Participants will get information concerning the current state of the art in the field in question and information about proposed or implemented solutions to problems emerging from practice in above mentioned fields. As the participants are university teachers, scientists and representatives of practice obtained knowledge will be implemented into the teaching process and will find its application while solving research problems or will be used in the practice. International aspect of the conference is a good presumption for establishing a closer cooperation in science and research.
