  • In this paper, the resonance characteristics of ZnO-based film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices with high-quality multi-layer reflectors are proposed. The ultrathin Cr film $(300\;\AA-thick)$ between $SiO_2$ film and W film is formed by a sputtering-deposition in order to enhance the adherence at their interfaces. The resonance frequency was observed to vary with the number of the reflectors. This seems to be attributed to the change in the effective thickness of the ZnO film. Also, increasing the number of layers has led to a significant improvement of the series/parallel quality factor.

  • 본 논문에서는 0.05Pb(Sn$_{1}$2/Sb$_{1}$2/)-0.35PbTiO$_{3}$-0.60PbZrO $_{3}$+0.4[wt%] MnO$_{2}$ 조성을 갖는 3성분계 압전세라믹스에 Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ 의 첨가량을 변화시켜서 지연선을 제작하고 탄성표면파를 여기시켜 전파속도를 측정하였으며 EMMAS 기준에 따라 각 시편의 재료정수를 측정하고 이를 압전방정식에 적용하여 매질에 따라 여기되는 탄성표면파의 계산속도를 이론적으로 산출한 후 이를 지연선에서 측정된 실험속도와 비교하여 재료의 특성이 탄성표면파의 전파특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 SAW 지연선에서 측정된 탄성표면파는 Generalized Rayleigh Wave였으며 재료의 특성이 우수한 시편일 수록 계산속도와 측정속도와의 차가 적었던 것으로 나타났고 오차한도는 평균 99.39[%]였으므로 실험속도 측정방법이 feed through 현상없이 우수한 측정방법이었음을 알 수 있었다.

  • In order to detect the partial discharge with the metallic particle in GIS the AE(Acoustic Emission) sensor was designed and simulated by ANSYS 5.5 and manufactured as the coupled vibration mode. The measured resonant frequency and the maximum sensitivity frequency of three coupled AE sensors were as follows ; 147.88 kHz in 8.1mm $\Phi$$\times$8.1mm 128.82 kHz and 58.8 kHz in 9.5 mm$\Phi$$\times$9.5mm, 85.22 kHz and 32.6 kHz in 14.3 mm$\Phi$$\times$14.3 mm, resonant frequency of the AE sensor. The AE sensor of 9.5 mm$\Phi$$\times$9.5mm responded higher than the other coupled vibration mode AE sensor at the partial discharge detection in GIS.

  • The purpose of the paper is to numerically investigate the acoustic noise characteristics of cylindrical roller bearings under radial load. For the sake of simplifying of the analysis, it was assumed that the cylindrical roller bearings are infinitely long. Furthermore, the effects of following on the noise of the bearing were also examined: the radial clearance of the bearing, the viscosity of the lubricant, and the number of the rollers. The results and discussions of the present paper could aid in the design of low-noise cylindrical roller bearings.

  • The objective evaluation of velopharyngeal closure function is the key to diagnosis and therapy control of velopharyngeal incompetency. The aim of this study is to evaluate the aerodynamic and acoustic characteristics of the velopharyngeal closure function of patients who have developed velopharyngeal incompetency after management with speech aids. The test words were composed of sustained vowels /a/, /i/, /e/, /u/, /ja/, /je/, /wi/ and polysyllabic words /p'ap'i/, /siso/, /mami/ for measuring nasalance, The data was collected before the placement of the speech aids and one to three months after. The results were as follows: The nasalance score of the velopharyngeal incompetency speakers was higher than that of the normal control group, except for nasal sounds, and was decreased after placement of the speech aids, especially in high vowels /i/ (P<.01) and /wi/ (P<.05).

  • This paper describes the design of a 2-phase stepping motor driver using CPLD(Complex Programmable Logic Device). The driver IC such as L297(SGS-Thomson Microelectronics), which is mostly used has some difficulties in PWM control because of the switching noise of power MOSFETs. It causes current ripple and acoustic noise. To improve theses characteristics, we proposed a new current control method that the output PWM frequency is almost constant using a digital filter. Also we proposed constant current method for 1-2 phase(half step) excitation. The proposed method is implemented with CPLD(Xilinx, XC9572-PC44). Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • The AE measurement is one of the most convenient methods for detecting contacts between slider disk. The AE method has been widely used in the investigation of the tribology of sliding interfaces due to the convenience of using AE sensor. In this study, we examined the relationship between the AE signal and the flying height of a slider. We tried to know the influence of the disk velocity on the AE rms signal by using the AE measurement system. The experiment also gives the relationship between the take-off velocity and the disk surface state. To investigate the behavior of the slider further, the variances of the AE signal are analyzed. The results about a subambient pressure slider indicate that the increase in the magnitude of AE rms signal does not necessarily mean the slider/disk contacts.

  • An acoustic emission(AE) technique has been used to monitor and diagnose quenching phenomenon in racetrack shaped superconducting magnets at cryogenic environment of 4.2K. The ultimate goal is to ensure the safety and reliability of large superconducting magnet systems by being able to identity and locate the sources of quench in superconducting magnets. The characteristics of AE parameters have been analyzed by correlating with quench number, winding tension of superconducting coil and charge rate by transport current. It was found in this study stat there was good correlation between quench current and AE parameters. The source location of quenching in superconducting magnet was also discussed on the correlation between magnet voltage and AE energy.

  • This paper compares the syllable structure of French and Korean analyzing the speech data of these two languages recorded during the actual speech. Reference to the syllable structure of French is made from F. Wioland's research data. As for the Korean data, the primary data are drawn from the 30-minute radio interview in which two male TV anchors in their early 60s talk to each other. The secondary source of the data is collected by having the primary data replicated by the two male announcers in their early 20's broadcasting in the university ra야o station of KAIST. With reference to the data collected in French and Korean, this paper provides the statistical frequency of each type of syllable structure in each language through the acoustic analysis of the spectrograms and renders a phonetic account of the characteristics of each syllable type in the two languages. Also discussed in this paper is the distributional condition in which each syllable structure is laid out in the speech context.

  • This study was an attempt to determine acoustic characteristics in myna bird's notes. Two myna birds' sounds imitating a normal male voice in his late 20's were sampled and analyzed. The analyses included the mean values of F1, F2, F3 and pitch contours. The results were as follows; First, there was a significan difference in the mean values of F1, F2, and F3 in isolatd vowel /a/ and /i/ between the myna birds' sounds and the human voice. However, there was no apparent difference in pitch contour of their formants. Second, there was a difference in pitch contour of their formants in their sentence ('hn-nyung-ha-se-yo?' meaning 'How are you?') production. Namely, the myna birds' pitch contour was located higher than that of the human's.
