This paper describes the application of a coupled finite element-boundary element method (FE-BEM) to obtain the steady-state response of a piezoelectric transducer. The particular structure considered is a PZT4 disc-typed projector. The projector is three-dimensionally simulated to transduce applied electric charge on axial surfaces of the piezoelectric disc to acoustic pressure in air or in water. The directivity pattern of the acoustic field formed from the projected sound pressure is also simulated. And the displacement of the disc caused by the externally applied electric charge is shown in temporal motion. The coupled FE-BE method is described in detail.

The volume of an acoustic source is important in determining various acoustic parameters. One of the suggested techniques is the internal pressure method incorporating a loudspeaker attached to a chamber wall and a microphone inserted into the cavity. Although the method is easy to handle with a very simple measurement setup, the coupling effects between the dynamic system of the loudspeaker and acoustic field, and the effects of higher order modes introduced by the discontinuities in the acoustic field, and the effects of higher order modes introduced by the discontinuities in the acoustic field should be considered for precise result. In this study, higher order modes due to the discontinuities of loudspeaker and microphone boundaries are included and the electro-acoustic coupling effects are compensated for by using the results of two cylinders with different lengths. The volume velocity of a loudspeaker thus obtained agrees very with that measured by laser sensor.

In this study, we propose a method to improve the accuracy of acoustic odometry using optimal frame interval selection for Fourier-based image registration. The accuracy of acoustic odometry is related to the phase correlation result of image pairs obtained from the forward-looking sonar (FLS). Phase correlation failure is caused by spurious peaks and high-similarity image pairs that can be prevented by optimal frame interval selection. We proposed a method of selecting the optimal frame interval by analyzing the factors affecting phase correlation. Acoustic odometry error was reduced by selecting the optimal frame interval. The proposed method was verified using field data.

We propose a combined STBC (Space Time Block Coding) and AMC (Adaptive Modulation and Coding) in the underwater multipath communication channel. Performance of UAC (underwater acoustic communication) in shallow water is degraded by complicated multipath and reverberation. For this reason, and considering the variability of the ocean channel, we combined STBC and AMC techniques, which are the spatial diversity in a multi-sensor communication system. BER (Bit error rate) of combined STBC and AMC is improved by 5dB when we compare with the BER of a single sensor based system. The proposed system shows a 3dB improvement when we compare it with the BER of the single sensor based system applying the AMC technique only.

Currently in Japan, the use of the small wind turbine is an upward trend. There are already many well established small wind turbine generators in use and their various failures have been reported. The most commonly sighted failure is blade damage. Thus the research purpose was set to develop a simple failure diagnostic system, where an Acoustic Emission (AE) signal was produced from the failure part of a blade which was measured by AE sensor. The failure diagnostic technique was thoroughly examined. Concurrently, the damage part of the blade was imitated, the AE signal was measured, and a FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) analysis was carried out, and was compared with the output characteristic. When one sheet of a blade was damaged 40mm or more, the level was computed at which failure could be diagnosed.

In this paper we have presented a condition monitoring method of check valve using neural network. The acoustic emission sensor was used to acquire the condition signals of check valve in direct vessel injection (DVI) test loop. The acquired sensor signal pass through a signal conditioning which are consisted of steps; rejection of background noise, amplification, analogue to digital conversion, extract of feature points. The extracted feature points which represent the condition of check valve was utilized input values of fault diagnosis algorithms using pre-learned neural network. The fault diagnosis algorithm proceeds fault detection, fault isolation and fault identification within limited ranges. The developed algorithm enables timely diagnosis of failure of check valve’s degradation and service aging so that maintenance and replacement could be preformed prior to loss of the safety function. The overall process has been experimented and the results are given to show its effectiveness.

In these days, there are huge increases of concerning underwater acoustic sensor networks (UWASNs) to explore marine resources and to monitor climate change. To collect information from sensor nodes which are randomly deployed in underwater, Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) based locating methods have been recently introduced, which consider sound speed to be constant in underwater. However, underwater sound speed tends to vary depending on underwater environment factors, such as depth, temperature, and salinity. In this paper, we propose a method considering environment factors, can influence upon sound speed in underwater, and introduce experimental setup which can follow up environmental factors.

Position estimation of a sound source based on time difference of arrival at an array of three acousto-optic sensors is introduced. Each sensor consists of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer including a sensing part in one arm that is a piece of fiber surrounded by membrane in order to enhance the acousto-optic effect. Estimation error of a recorded gunshot sound signal was evaluated with the theoretically calculated values for two different locations.

단일 센서 기반 반향음 제어 시스템은 하나의 센서 신호로부터 입사음과 반향음을 분리하여 추정하고, 입사신호로부터 반대위상의 신호를 발생시킴으로써 반향음을 감소시킨다. 본 논문에서는 단일 센서 기반 반향음 제어 시스템을 위한 최적 필터 설계 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법에서는 측정된 반향음 경로와 제어 경로의 임펄스 응답을 사용하여 최적 제어 필터 설계가 가능함을 보였다. 제안된 최적 필터를 기반으로 하는 반향음 제어 알고리즘은 기존의 적응 필터 기반 알고리즘에 비해 더 우수한 제어 성능을 얻을 수 있으며, 초기 수렴시간 없이 반향음을 효과적으로 제어한다. 1차원 음향 덕트 환경에서 얻어진 신호를 사용하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과로부터 제안한 최적 필터가 잡음 환경에서도 강건한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

NDT나 의료용 영장장치에 응용되는 압전복합재는 일반적인 세라믹이나 고분자 압전재료에 비하여 많은 장점을 가진다. 이들 응용분야에서는 전기기계결합계수가 높아야 하고 음향임피던스가 낮아야 한다. 그러나, 압전복합재의 횡방향 단위 크기가 조밀하지 못할 경우 횡방향으로 진행하는 판파에 의한 불필요한 진통이 표면에 발생하게 된다. 횡방향 단위 크기와 세라믹 체적비에 따른 압전 특성을 조사하기 위하여 PMN-PZT 세라믹과 Epofix 에폭시로 에폭시의 폭의 달리하면서 1-3형 압전복합채를 제작하였다. 제작된 1-3형 압전복합재의 두께방향 진동모드의 전기기계결합계 수, 음향임피던스는 각각 $0.36{\sim}0.64,\;9.8{\sim}22.7MRayl$ MRayl로 나타났으며, 횡방향 단위크기가 줄어들수록 횡방향 모드 공진 주파수가 증가하였다.
