The diagram above gives some indications on the extent of acoustics and on the associated disciplines. The first ring (in yellow) starting from the center contains the traditional subdivisions of acoustics, and the external ring external (in green) contains the names of the artistic and technic fields which it covers; the angles point out the four great spheres of human activity.
