본 연구에서는 Class IV Flextensional 트랜스듀서의 구조를 설정하고, 여러 형상 및 물성 변수들이 공진 트랜스듀서의 주파수에 미치는 영향을 유한 요소법을 이용하여 해석하였다. 그 결과 공진 주파수에 영향을 가장 많이 미치는 것은 장축 길이, 단축 길이, 쉘의 두께,쉘의 물성 변수이다. 반면에 Insert의 부피, 세라믹 적층의 물성과 두께는 상대적으로 적은 영향을 미치고, Nodal-plate의 두께는 공진 주파수와 무관한 경향을 나타내었다. 다음으로 위 연구결과를 바탕으로 수중에서 중심 주파수 1 kHz를 가지는 트랜스듀서를 유한 요소 모델로 제작하여 음압을 측정하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는, 다양한 중심 주파수를 가지는 Class IV Flextensional 트랜스듀서를 구현함에 있어 유용한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 논문에서는 외부방사 문제에 널리 사용되는 음향경계 요소 법(Acoustic Boundary Element Method)을 확장하여 저주파수 대역은 기존의 방법을 이용하고 고주파수 대역에서는 경계요소의 특성길이에 의한 고주파수 상한을 극복할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 밴드를 대표하는 음압 레벨을 직접 계산하도록 상호상관도 가정을 통하여 간략화 하였다. 간단한 음향방사 모델인 배플이 있는 빔과 평판에 대하여 Rayleigh 적분식의 계산결과와 제안된 방법을 비교하여 적용효능성을 검토하였다. 적용을 위한 조건으로는 방사면 진동의 상호상관도가 작아야 하므로, 이를 만족시키기 위한 일반적인 조건식을 제시하여 이로부터 경계요소의 특성길이를 정하는 기준을 제시하였다.

The acoustic characteristics of a direct radiator type loudspeaker has been studied in this paper. The natural modes of the speaker cone vibration analyzed numerically by the finite element method have been verified by comparing them with experimental results. The so-ap-proved finite-element model has been used to calculate the vibration response of the cone excited by the voice coil. The vibration displacement of the speaker cone paper has been converted into the vibration velocity and used as a boundary condition for the acoustic analysis. The frequency characteristics, directivity, and sound pressure distribution of the loudspeaker have been calculated by the boundary element method. The numerical results have been verified by the experiments carried out in an anechoic chamber. The variations of the acoustic characteristics due to the changes of some design parameter values can be examined using the numerical model.

In establishing silent environment such as automobile and industrial instrument, the roles of the insulating materials are critical. The proper and effective positioning of insulating materials is essential in the field of noise as well as in designing silent automobile. In this paper, we proposed the systematic and efficient scheme for optimizing complete automotive interiors for noise control. In order to attain this purpose, following analysis has been carried out: First, measuring the Biot parameters of insulating materials and the transmission loss with reflecting the appropriate arrangement of insulating materials has been experimented. In addition, we made comparison among transmission loss by the tools of analysis and verification, experimental value under consideration of various situations of automobile and analysis by the SEA.

본 논문에서는 디지털 보청기의 자동보정법을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 구현한 보정시스템에 대하여 기술한다. 일반적으로 난청환자의 청각 손실은 전 주파수를 걸쳐 일정하게 발생하는 것이 아니라, 고음 또는 저음 등 일부 특정 주파수 대역의 청각특성의 이득이 다른 주파수에 비해 상대적으로 낮아져서 생기는 현상이다. 그러나 현재까지의 보청기는 이와 같은 청각 손실을 가지고 있는 환자들에 대하여 전 주파수 대역의 음압을 동일 비율로 높여주는 문제가 있다. 이와 같은 보청기로 보정하게 되면, 주파수 대역별 균형이 맞지 않기 때문에 소리가 변형되어 들리게 되고, 명료도 또한 떨어지게 된다. 또한, 기존의 아날로그보청기는 생산공정 중에 잡음 피크 제거, 리미터 조정, 이득 조정(GC) 등의 작업을 수동으로 수행하게 되는데, 이는 작업공정이 복잡하고 개개인에 청각특성에 맞는 정확한 보정이 불가능한 문제점을 안고있다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 제안한 자동보정 시스템은 각 주파수 대역별 최적화된 파라미터를 자동적으로 찾아서 입력하므로 보다 정확하고 신속한 보정이 가능하게 된다. 이 시스템은 외부 IC 콘트를 장치인 Hl-PRO를 이용하여 PC 환경 하에서Visual Basic으로 구현하였으며 시스템의 출력값을 측정하여 검토한 결과 구현한 자동보정법이 유효함을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents a the method for estimating the noise source contribution on the road noise of the vehicle in a multiple input system where the input sources may be coherent with each other. By coherence function method, it is found that the biggest part of the noise source in the road noise is generated by structural vibration on the mechanical-acoustic transfer functions of vehicles. This analysis is modeled as four input/single output system because the noise is generated with four wheels that mechanism of the road noise is very complicated. The coherence function method is proved to be useful tool for identifying of noise source. The overall levels of the interior noise be coherence function method are compared with those measured and calculated by the frequency response function approach using mechanical excitation test. The experimental results have shown a good agreement with the results calculated by the coherence function method when the input sources are coherent strongly each other. The estimation of the road noise indicates that significant coherent can be achieved in the vehicle interior noise.

A method of measuring impulse response of acoustic system, two kinds of cross-correlation methods (the direct correlation method and the M-sequence modulation correlation method) were applied. According to the direct correlation method, by using stationary random noise source and by calculating the cross-correlation function between the sourece and the output signal, equivalent impulse response can be obtained not being influenced by the back ground noises. By applying this method, the measurement of echo-time patterns in rooms and oblique incident sound absorption characteristics of sound absorbing materials was carried out. In the case of the M-sequence modulation correlation method which was contrived by Aoshima, an intermittent random nosie modulated by M-sequence signal is used as the source signal, and the cross-correlation function between the M-sequence signal and the squared output signal is calculated. According to this method, equivalent energy impulse response (squared impulse response) of te propagation system can be obtained without being influenced by the back ground noises and the air fluctuation caused by wind. As the applcaition of this measuring method to the architectural acoustics, the meaurements of echo-time patterns, reverberation decays and sound pressure lev디 distributions in rooms and sound insulation efficiencies in buildings were carried out. From these experimental studies, it has been found that this M-sequence modulation correlation method is markedly useful especially for the field masurement of sound insulation under high back ground noise condition.

A patient failed to use conventional complete dentures due to severe mandibular bone resorption and soft tissue hyperplasia on lips, tongue and oral vestibule from vascular malformation. The treatment of choice would be an implant-retained overdenture, however, he refused owing to high cost. The closed mouth impression technique using BPS principle, CR record registration with gothic arch tracing and monoplane occlusion using non-anatomic teeth were used to fabricate complete dentures for this patient. Patient satisfaction, the retention and the stability of complete dentures were highly improved as a result.

The first case of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) was reported in Korea in 2015, after a Korean man from Bahrain tested positive for the infection. After first eruption, there were numbers of secondary infectees and whole country were frightened. At the time, isolated ambulances were available but few, and there was no specific way to prevent contamination during transfer. Therefore, Seoul National University Hospital and the University of Seoul developed isolation units and air filters. Four years after the MERS outbreak, this study measured the differential pressure inside and outside the small isolation units based on the differential pressure and air flow derived from simulation and testing, and proposed minimum values for virus leakage and internal sealing. A performance evaluation and testing method for the transfer equipment is proposed. The critical function of the small isolated transport equipment was defined and selected as an evaluation item; performance evaluation was carried out by simulating a real-world case. The results provide the proper pressure configuration of positive and negative pressure inside the segregation feeder; the clear criteria for the HEPA filter; and the performance criteria for the segregation feeder and air purifier.
