자동차 및 유체기계의 흡기계나 배기계에 사용되는 소음기의 음향성능은 전달손실로 기계성능은 배압으로 표현된다. 유체가 흐르는 관 사이의 임피던스 부정합을 이용하는 반사형 소음기의 경우, 내부 유로에 천공을 주어 음향감쇠를 시키거나 유동을 안정시키는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 동심관형 공명기의 내부 관에 존재하는 천공의 분포 양상이 소음기의 전달손실과 배압에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통하여 고찰하였다. 내부관의 평균 천공율은 일정하지만 길이 방향을 따라서 천공율이 변하는 다섯가지의 공명기에 대한 실험을 수행하고, 성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 전달손실은 천공요소의 임피던스 모델을 고려하여 예측한 결과와 비교하였고, 측정된 배압은 모의 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 천공율이 점점 작아지는 분포나, 작았다가 커진후 다시 작아지는 형태의 분포를 가질 경우, 배압 측면에서 매우 유리하고, 음향 전달손실도 큰 차이가 없음을 밝혔다.

This paper introduces noise masking algorithm for 64 channel digital hearing aid. 125 Hz spectral resolution is maintained for 64 channels from 125 Hz to 8000 Hz. The same spectral masking processing effects as the cochlea are considered and applied for the present hearing aid noise reduction processing algorithm. Theoretical algorithm has been ported into assembler language program software and been embedded into a DSP IC chip for the digital hearing aid. Some parts of noise masking software program code are explained, and the results of the real-time noise reduction are verified by electro-acoustic measurements.

스트레인 게이지 브리지와 한개의 진동변위 탐촉자를 이용하여 평판의 근접장에서 음향 인텐시티를 측정하는 방법에 대하여 설명하였다. 또한 구조감쇠의 모델링을 통하여 음향방사파워에 대한 내부손실파워의 비를 나타내는 계수를 정의하여 내부손실파워의 정도를 평가하는 척도로 사용할 수 있음을 설명하였다. 임의의 경계조건을 가지는 평판에서 2개의 마이크로폰과 1개의 가속계를 이용하여 근사적으로 측정된 음향 인텐시티와 본고에서 제시한 방법으로 측정한 음향 인텐시티가 거의 일치함을 보이므로써 제시된 측정방법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 실험에 사용된 계(system)는 일반적인 해석에서 유체부하를 무시할 수 있는 계로 평판내부의 에너지 흐름에 비하여 외부로 방사되는 소음의 에너지 흐름이 매우 작기 때문에 평판내부의 에너지 흐름으로부터 방사되는 소음의 에너지 흐름을 알아내는 것이 매우 어려울 것으로 예상되었으나 본고에 제시된 방법으로 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 앞으로 본 방법의 측정 오차에 대한 면밀한 고찰이 있어야 할 것이다. 그리고 평판의 내부손실이 비교적 큰 경우에 본 방법의 실험적으로 검증이 필요할 것이다. 또한 실질적인 문제에 응용되어 얼마만큼 유용한 정보를 제공할 것인가를 살펴보아야 할 것이다.

This paper presents a design of a tuned liquid mass damper(TLMD) for controlling bi-directional response of high-rise building structure subjected to windload. The proposed damper behaves as a tuned mass damper(TMD) of which mass is regarded as the mass of a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) and the case wall of the TLCD itself in one direction and the TLCD in the other direction. Because the proposed device has coupled design parameter along two orthogonal directions, it is very important to select designing components by optimal fine tuning. In the designing TLMD, for easy maintenance, the rubber-bearing with small springs was applied in TMD direction. In this study, the Songdo New City Tower 1A in Korea, which has been designed and constructed two TLCDs in order to control bi-directional response, was chosen as the model building structure. The results of rotation test proved the effectiveness of bi-directional behavior of TLMD.

Design of a vegetation type sound barrier was presented as a noise barrier on the boundary of neighborhood facilities including schools, and apartments. The suggested noise barrier is made of unit blocks that are to be formed by stacking over the wall structure containing the plant and soils in the blocks. The advantage of the vegetation noise barrier is to acquire not only sound absorptive effects of plants and soils, but also sound diffusive effect caused by the irregular surface of the barrier which could eventually mitigate the noise. First, the optimum size of the units to obtain the highest noise reduction was investigated using 1/10 scaled model experiment, and sound attenuation experiments were carried out using a 1/2 mock-up model which is 2 m high and 5 m long. Total 1,137 unit blocks were made of synthetic woods with the size of $10{\times}10{\times}9cm$. These unit blocks were installed on the both side of the 1/2 mock-up steel framed noise barrier. As a result, it was revealed that the block typed vegetation noise barrier has 7 dB higher insertion loss in comparison with the general plane noise barrier. Also, it was found that the appropriate size of unit blocks is $20{\times}20cm$ which has large effect of sound insertion loss.

The performance of the energy density control algorithm for controlling a broadband noise is evaluated in a one-dimensional enclosure. To avoid noncausality problem of a control filter, which often happens in a frequency domain optimization, analyses presented in this paper are undertaken in the time domain. This approach provides the form of the causally constrained optimal controller. Numerical results are presented to predict the performance of the active noise control system, and indicate that imp개ved global attenuation of the broadband noise can be achieved by minimizing the energy density, rather than the squared pressure. It is shown that minimizing the energy density at a single location yields global attenuation results that are comparable to minimizing the potential energy. Furthermore, unlike the squared pressure control, the energy density control does not demonstrate any dependence on the error sensor location for this one-dimensional field. A practical implementation of the energy-based control algorithm is presented. Results show that the energy density control can be implemented using the two sensor technique with a tolerable margin of performance degradation.

The study was conducted to examine noise levels influenced by differences of altitudes and elevation from ground level. The results of the study indicated that when the noise (102 db) was created at the upper part of a steep slope area, the noise levels measured at the altitudes of 5 and 10 m were 70 and 62.1 db (R$^2$=0.9533), respectively, and that when the noise (102 db) was created at the lower part of the area, the noise levels levels measured at the altitudes of 5 and 10 m were 74.6 and 71.8 db (R$^2$=0.8519), respectively. When noise was created on a nat area, the noise levels at 10, 20 and 50 meter-ranges were 76.2, 65.9 and 55.3 db (R2 =0.9854), respectively, in which the longer distances from the noise source reduced the noise levels than the shorter and especially the noise was tremendously reduced within 10 meter-range.

For computer aided design and costruction of low noisy power plants, indoor and outdoor noise prediction program has been developed. The program utilizes the predefined data of noise sources and building materials and has the faculty to estimate the source level using the empirical formula in case of the measured data not being available. In the noise prediction, the mutual noise propagation between indoor and outdoor sites are considered. The outdoor noise source in the calculation of geometric divergence effects is modelled as the omni-directional finite line or planar source according to the source geometry and the receiving points. Outdoor noise prediction is carried out to consider the diffraction effect due to plant structures as well as the attenuation effect due to atmospheric absorption and soft ground. The results of indoor and outdoor noise prediction for a recently constructed diesel engine power plant show good agreement with the measured.

The purpose of this study is to obtain an effective enclosing method for noise reduction of press machine operating in a manufacturing company located in Korea. Noise level of the machine is about $90{\sim}105dB$ which is higher than legal standards by industrial safety and health law. This study has predicted the level of noise reduction according to a step by step prevention plan by considering the characteristics of the cause of noise, the permitted limit of noise levels, problems and economical efficiency attendant upon the noise prevention measures. The predicted level of noise at the plant in accordance with the first step is $71.5{\sim}89.5dB(A)$, and can satisfy the permitted limit of noise in a time period of the day. Based on these results, enclosing method adequate for the selected plant's noise characteristics were suggested.
