Aluminum extruded panels are widely used instead of corrugated steel panels for weight reduction in high-speed trains. Of the layers in the train body, it makes the largest contribution to the sound insulation. However, compared with that of a flat panel with the same weight, the TL of the aluminum extruded panel is remarkably lower in the local resonance frequency band. We study aluminum extruded panels for next-generation 400-km/h trains. We investigate the problem of sound insulation and propose a practical method to improve the sound-insulation performance. The local resonance frequency region is increased by a modification of the core structure, and urethane foam is placed in the core. The effect on the sound insulation is verified by experiments. Finally, the improvement for the entire sound-transmission loss is estimated for the layered floor panels of express trains.

스크류 채널 내에 주기적을 배리어를 설치함으로써 단축 스크류 압출 공정에서의 혼합 성능이 높여질수 있음이 S.J. Kim과 T.H. Kwom에 의해 밝혀진 바있다. 그들은 이새 로운 스크류를 통한 혼합이 카오틱하는 점으로부터 이 새로운 스크류를 카오스 스크류라고 명명했다. 우리는 카오스 스크류가 장착된 단축 압출공정에서 역학계 이론과 혼합운동학을 연계하여 연구를 수행하였다. 포인카레 단면을 통한 연구로부터 우리는 배리어의 배열이 islan의 크기에 대단히 밀접하게 관련되어 있음을 발견하였다. 연속적인 쉘 변형은 카오틱 유동에서 유체 요소를 지수 함수 형태로 늘이는 늘임과 접힘으로 이루어진 카오틱 혼합 메 카니즘을보여준다. 유체요소의 국부 늘임은 원리상으로는 계산되어질수 있으나 수치 해석상 의 어려운 점이 있다. 정규 유동에서와 달리 카오틱 유동에서는 입자 추적이 Runge-Kutta 적분중의 시간간격에 대단히 민감하다. 그래서 실제 사용될수 있는 시간 간격에 의해 계산 된 국부 늘임율 및 혼합효율의 정확도가 보장되어지지 않는다. 이러한 점들을 고려하여 우 리는 새로운 혼합 척도로 $\sigma$z를 제안하는데 이값은 비교적 긴 유체선분이 채널방향을 따라 늘어나는 비에 관련된 값이다. 배리어 영역의 길이가 짧을수록 $\sigma$z는 큰값으로 나타나지만 포인카레 단면에 의한 연구에 따르면 배리어의 주기가 너무 짧다면 두 개의 거대한 island 가 존재하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 그리고 이러한 사실은 유체요소의 늘임비가 크다는 것이 항 상 좋은 혼합성능을 뜻하는 것은 아니라는 점을 보여준다. 이러한 관점에서 볼 때 혼합 스 크류를 설계하는데 있어서는 포인카레 단면을 병행하여 ${\sigma}_z$의 값을 사용하는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

A process map has been developed, which can identify the process conditions for weak mechanical bonding at the contact surface during the direct extrusion of a Cu-Ti bimetal bar. Bonding mechanism between Cu and Ti was assumed as a cold pressure welding. Then, the plastic deformation at the contact zone causes mechanical bonding and a new bonding criterion for pressure welding was developed as a function of the principal stretch ratio and normal pressure at the contact surface by analyzing micro local extrusion at the contact zone. Finite element analyses for extrusion of Cu-Ti bimetal bars were performed for various process conditions. The deformation history at the contact surface was traced and the proposed new bonding criterion was applied to predict whether the mechanical bonding at the Cu-Ti contact surface happens. Finally, a process map for the extrusion of Cu-Ti bimetal bar is suggested.

Sound transmission characteristics are investigated on the aluminium extruded panels used for railway vehicles. An equivalent orthotropic plate model and mass law are applied to predict the sound transmission loss. An extruded panel specimen used in the floor of railway vehicles is manufactured and is tested to measure sound transmission loss by two reverberant chamber method. Predicted transmission loss I compared with measured values and the effect of local resonance on the transmission characteristics is identified. The results are applied to design the extruded panel having better sound insulation performance.

The aluminum extruded panel used for a high speed train shows the largest contribution to sound insulation performance of the train body. However, comparing with the flat panel having the same weight, the transmission loss falls sharply in the local resonance frequency band. Such fall of transmission loss can be improved by increasing the damping of local resonance. This study examines the charging effect of an urethane foam on the aluminum extruded panel of a high speed train. We charged the urethane foam with different mass density and in different way in the core part of the extruded panel. We measure the transmission loss and compare the sound insulation performance according to the density and charging method. Finally, Improvement effect of the transmission loss is compared and analysed in aspect of weight increment.

Characteristics of the local vibration modes of an aluminium extruded panel are investigated by the finite element analysis and modal testing. Practical methods to increase the damping of the local resonances are proposed. Effects by filling urethan foam in the core cavity and by coating tar on the panel surface are compared by experiments. Modified panel structures to shift the local resonance frequency band are proposed. The results of the study are utilized to predict the severe local resonances in the aluminium extruded panels and prevent their undesirable effect on the sound insulation.
