As a test specimen. an aluminum extruded panel with a dimension of 640 mm$\times$740 mm$\times$40mm is considered. This plate has 9 mm thickness if mass is concerned. Based on the FEM modeling in rigidity. the specimen turns out to be 32 mm and 12 mm thickness In isotropic steel plate. Also, the characteristics of transmission loss on the honeycomb structure have been examined experimentally with reverberation chamber. A honeycomb structure follows mass law in above 800 Hz. In order to improve the noise transmission effect in lower frequency, extra damping treatment is suggested. As a conclusion. the examined honeycomb structure Is designed to Improve the bending rigidity, not for the noise reduction.

There are many theoretical investigations to analyze higher order mode of reactive type single expansion chambers with offset inlet/outlet locations. But the conventional method has the restriction that the ratio between the area of inlet(or outlet) pipe and that of chamber must be natural number. In the paper, a new method was suggested to apply the Kim's method to silencer with circular cross-section. Not only the offset location but also the magnitude of cross-section area of inlet/outlet pipe can be considered by the suggested method. The predictions by this new method also compared with those by the finite element method and Munjal's method in order to verify the accuracy of the suggested method presented here.

Helmholtz resonator is used to reduce noise of the narrow frequency band. It has high transmission loss at its resonance frequency. The silencer that combines many resonators could control broadband noise at low frequency. To convey this rather simple idea, serial and parallel arrangement of resonators have been tested to obtain high transmission loss characteristics in the band of which are selects. Theoretical and experimental results explain these characteristics in the absence of mean flow. The change of acoustic characteristics by the resonance frequencies and resonators arrangement are explained by using the equivalent Impedance analysis that is defined in this paper. It shows that the transmission loss has a maximum value when the separation distance between each resonator is λ/4 of its wavelength.

A modeling is developed to predict the isolation performance of sound barrier systems under the sound pressure radiated from excited by point impact. The predicted results are compared with the measured results obtained by using APAMAT II. This instrument provides a combination of structure-borne noise and air-borne noise, which corresponds to rolling noise, by applying the excitation system projected steel balls against the steel sheet.

This paper considers acoustic characteristics of silencer within a dry vacuum pump. The main objective is to reduce noise in dry vacuum pump using the new designed silencer. First, SPL and sound intensity are measured for noise source identification and the new model silencer is designed corresponding to noise characteristics. 4-pole parameters are used to predict the transmission loss which is one of the interest characteristics of the new silencer. The calculated transmission loss is then used to change main effective factor and optimal value is selected by using design of experiment. By conducting an experiment, it is proved that the new designed silencer has reduced noise level by 6 dB(A) more than the original one.

In this paper, it is presented that the effect of air gap insertion in testing the transmission loss of sound barrier using structural vibration system. In this study, we use the APAMAT based on the structure-borne-noise. The measured results show that air gap insertion improves transmission loss as results of test based on the air-borne-noise. The measured results are compared with the predicted transmission loss using the transfer matrix method. The predicted results were found to be in reasonable agreement with measured results.

A PC-based analysis and design system of exhaust muffler is described. It makes use of software packages such as Sysnoise and STAR-CD to calculate transmission loss(TL) and back pressure. The system is applied to redesign a main muffler of passenger car to improve its performance. The effects of design parameters on acoustic and pressure loss characteristics are examined. Taguchi method Is used to determine optimal combination of parameters which affects muffler performances such as TL and back pressure. Three models are chosen and compared in laboratory bench test and engine dynamometer test to prove their performances.

This study proposes an analysis model to simulate a noise map and estimate noise distribution for a location and its surroundings of a power plant. The noise map analysis was executed by using ENPro that is a commercial program for environmental noise prediction. Experimental evaluation for the proposed analysis model was carried out by comparing the results from noise analysis and measurement at several major points of the power plant and residential areas.

Helmholtz resonators have high transmission loss in a narrow band at the resonance frequency. The transmission loss characteristics of resonators at high sound pressure levels can change due to variations of the impedance as a result of nonlinear behavior. Different sound pressure levels are applied to each resonator when resonators were arranged along the path. Therefore, impedance variation due to incident sound pressure level should be considered in order to predict the transmission loss.

The acoustic performance of reactive type single expansion chamber can be calculated theoretically by plane wave theory. But higher order model should be considered to widen the frequency range. Mode matching method has been developed to consider higher order modes, but very complicated algebra should be used. Munjal suggested a numerical collocation method, which can overcome the shortcomings of mode matching method, using the compatibility conditions for acoustic pressure and particle velocity at the junctions of area discontinuities. But the restriction of Munjal's method is that the ratio between the area of inlet(or outlet) pipe and that of chamber must be natural number. In this paper, the new method was suggested to overcome the shortcomings of Munjal's method. The predictions by this method was also compared with those by the finite element method and Munjal's method in order to demonstrate the accuracy of the modified method presented here.
