Acoustic and pressure type seabed installed wave sensors have advantage in observing long period infra-gravity wave and tsunami, while buoy type wave gauges which measure acceleration of the moored buoy motion are not able to detect long period waves. That's why most of the Japanese coastal wave observation sensors are seabed installed typed ones. Nationwide Japanese coastal wave observation systems with seabed installed sensors are gradually clarifying long-period tsunami profiles and infra-gravity wave characteristics (Nagai.et.al., 1996, 1997,2000,2002a,2002b).

Conventional method for designing and installing anechoic chambers is to utilize porous wedges for the sound absorbers. As cutoff frequency lowers down such as 63Hz or 50Hz, the corresponding long wedges diminish the free field area of the chamber. In this study, a new broadband compact absorber(BCA) is introduced which absorbs acoustic energy down to 50Hz. Most prominent is that it measures only 250mm thick. A freely vibrating panel between the non-fibrous absorbers allows tuned absorption at the low frequency region in addition to the high frequency absorption resulted from the conventional absorber installed at the front. Standing waves at low frequency range are suppressed as the BCA modules which are tuned to the corresponding modes absorb sound energy effectively, resulting in anechoic condition. Not only the low frequency performances, but the high frequency absorption is measured to meet adequate conditions for the anechoic chamber. Realized BCA chambers are presented.

This paper proposes the practical echo-signal synthesis models - UTAHID (Underwater TArget by Highlight Distribution) & M-UTAHID(Modified UTAHID) - of underwater target for active sonar engineering At high frequencies all the echo components that are the specular reflected waves and various elastic scattering wave scan be regarded the summation of individual echo from some equivalent scattering centers, so the underwater target is characterized by highlights distributed in spatial target structure. Proposed models are compared with characteristics of random distributed model & equivalent interval highlight model, and analyzed target strength, echo-elongation effect, target time spread loss and so on. Thus these can be efficiently used in various real systems related to underwater target echo-signal synthesis on active sonar and acoustic countermeasure.

An optical microphone was developed using a dual-core multi-mode fiber block and a membrane type micromirror. The fiber block serves as a compact optical head, and the micromirror as a reflective diaphragm. The micromirror is designed to be suspended through a silicon bar connected t a frame, allowing for displacement induced by acoustic waves. The optical head is implemented by integrating two multi-mode fibers in a single block, and used to transfer light signals between it and the diaphragm. For the assembled microphone, its static characteristics were observed to reveal the operating point defined as the optimum distance between the optical head and the diaphragm. And its dynamic response was tested to exhibit a frequency bandwidth of 3 kHz with the variation of $\sim5dB$.

The thermomagnetic effect on plane wave propagation at the liquid-solid interface with nonclassical thermoelasticity is investigated. It is assumed that liquid-solid half-space is under initial stress. Numerical computations are performed for the developed amplitude ratios of P, SV and thermal waves under Cattaneo-Lord-Shulman theory, Green-Lindsay theory and classical thermoelasticity. The system of developed equations is solved by the application of the MATLAB software at different angles of incidence for Green and Lindsay model. The effect of initial stress and magnetic field in the lower half-space are discussed and comparison is made in LS, GL and CT models of thermoelasticity. In the absence of magnetic field, the obtained results are in agreement with the same results obtained by the relevant authors. This study would be useful for magneto-thermoelastic acoustic device field.

최근의 연구를 통해 해양의 내부파가 음파전달에 영향을 주어 비정상적인 손실을 일으키는 것을 밝혀졌다. 한국 동해세서도 강한 수온약층을 중심으로 내부파가 존재할 것으로 여겨져 왔으며, 이를 규명하고자 '98년 6월 각종 장비를 동원한 해양 관측을 동해항 근해에서 실시하였다. 또한 내부파에 의한 음파의 전파 특성을 추정학자 음원과 수신기를 고정한 상태에서 음향 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과 전형적인 내부파는 주기가 약 5-12분이고 최대 진폭은 15m 정도임이 밝혀졌다. 특히 10여개의 내부파 묶음이 약 36cm/sec 의 속도로 이동하고 있음도 확인하였다. 15개의 음향센서로 이뤄진 수직선배열 수신기와 음원을 이용한 음향 실험결과 역시 4-12분 주기에서 부분적으로 스펙트럼이 높게 나타났으며, 특히 주파수 1kHz 인 경우에는 4, 6분 주기에서 15개의 센서에 대해 일관되게 높은 스펙트럼 준위가 나타났다. 내부파에 의한 이러한 음파의 특성은 음파의 모든간 결함으로 나타나는 일종의 간섭 현상으로 설명될 수 있다.

The PZT(lead, zirconium, titanium) based ceramics which, are reported to be ferroelectric materials have their important applications in the areas of surface acoustic waves (SAW), filters, infrared detectors, actuators, ferroelectric random acess memory, speakers, electronic switches etc. Moreover, these PZT materials possess the large electromechanical coupling factor, large spontaneous polarization, low dielectric loss and low internal stress etc. Hence, keeping in view the unique properties of PZT piezoelectric ceramics we also tried to synthesize indigenously the small sized PZT ceramic powder in the laboratory by using the modified sol-gel approach. In this paper, Propyl alcohol based sol-gel method was used for preparation of PZT piezoelectric ceramic. The powder obtained by this sol-gel process was calcined and sintering to reach a pyrochlore-free crystal phase. The characterization of synthesized material was carried out by the XRD analysis and the surface morphology was determined by high resolution scanning electron microscopy.

This paper investigates the statistical properties of waves in the sea area of Uljin, which is located in the East Sea area of Korea. The wave data were measured using AWAC (Acoustic Wave and Current Meter), which was installed at a 16-m water depth from November 2010 to March 2011. The wave data acquisition rate, Hmax, monthly mean Hs, Tz, Tp, and wave direction are summarized. The distributions of Hs and Tz were analyzed using the Hs-Tz scatter diagrams. The measurement wave data were analyzed to investigate freak wave characteristics. By comparing the wave spectrum using the measurement wave data with the wave spectrum obtained by varying the JONSWAP wave spectrum, it was possible to approximate the wave spectrum shape at the Uljin Sea area.

Using Shear-free Ship wake theory it was predicted the detectable submarine's turbulent wake on the sea surface was about 12km long when there was no breaking waves on the sea surface. It means that there are sufficient detectable turbulent kinetic energies on the sea surface as well as in the water. In this paper, we have proposed some concepts of non acoustic anti-submarine surveillance systems; SAR for sea surface surveillance, LIDAR for sub-surface surveillance and propelled gliders for under -water surveillance.
