Combustion response function of a solid propellant is measured and calculated to study and model the feedback process between acoustic waves and combustion field. Standard Pulsed DB/AB method and related one-dimensional approximate analysis of T-burner are used to obtain the response function at a driving natural frequency. The problems related with simultaneous ignition of propellant samples are also mentioned and treated.

Noise can make surrounding environments inferior and deteriorates operation efficiency, and it can bring aural damage as well as give a person psychological stress. Therefore, necessity of study about noise control is increased for better labor conditions and agreeable habitat. In this paper, implementation of active mufflers using a stable IIR adaptive filters is presented. The IIR filter structure is more effective when acoustic feedback exists, but the adaptive IIR filters could be unstable when the filter algorithm is not yet converged. A stabilizing process for adaptive IIR filter is introduced in this paper. Experiments using a TMS320C32 digital signal processor have performed to show the effectiveness of a proposed algorithm.

With the improvement of standard of living, requirement for comfortable and quiet environment has been increased and, therefore, there has been a many researches for active noise reduction to overcome the limit of passive control method. In this study, active noise control is performed in a duct system using intelligent control technique which needs not decide the coefficients of high order filter and the mathematical modeling of a system. Back propagation algorithm is applied as an intelligent control technique and control system is organized to exclude the error microphone and high speed operational device which are indispensable for conventional active noise control techniques. Furthermore, learning is performed by organizing acoustic feedback model, and the effect of the proposed control technique is verified via computer simulation and experiment of active noise control in a duct system.

The unsteady turbulent flow characteristics of NACA4406 airfoil at close proximity to the pound are numerically investigated, especially focused on the noise generation mechanism near the blunt trailing edge. The unsteady two-dimensional compressible Wavier-Stokes equations with a Spalart-Allmaras turbulence closure model are solved by the 6th-order compact scheme and the 4th-order Runge-Kutta scheme. The computation shows a noise generation by a feedback mechanism at the blunt tailing edge, where the acoustic-fluidic coupling occurs between the wall-reflected sound waves and the periodically disturbed turbulent shear layer.

Burr sensing for burr size measurement and deburring process control is one of the essential elements in an automated deburring procedure. This paper presents the implementation of capacitance sensing and acoustic emission (AE) to deburring. The first application is the "on-line" measurement of burrs using a capacitance sensor. A non-contact capacitance gauging sensor is attached to an ultra precision milling machine which was used as a positioning system. The setup is used to measure burr profiles along machined workpiece edges. The proposed scheme is shown to be accurate, easy to setup, and with minor modifications, readily applicable to automatic deburring processes. As the second example, AE signals were sampled and analyzed for the sensor feedback of a precision deburring process - laser deburring -. The results, such as the sensitivity of AE signals to burr shapes and edge detection capability show a clear correlation between physical process parameters and the AE signals. A subsequent control strategy for deburring automation is also briefly discussed.

In this paper we propose a new approach for an analysis and a prediction of combustion instability of lean premixed gas turbines. Our approach is based on the Nyquist stability criterion in control theory and a transfer function representation of a one-dimensional (1D) thermoacoustic system. A key advantage of the proposed approach is that one can systematically characterize the effects of various parameters of a combustor system on combustion instability. Our analysis method was applied to a real combustion system and the analysis results were consistent with experimental data.

This study is to describe the effects of the duct termination conditions conditions upon the active noise attenuation system. The adaptive filtering algorithm using FIR filter is implemented for duct noise attenuation. To avoid the instability caused by the acoustic feedback, two methods are considered. One is to use a compensating FIR filter. The other is to utilize uni-directional detecting microphone and uni-directional control speaker. Experimental results show that the reflections of sound from duct terminations greatly reduce the performance of ANC system. The directionality of detecting microphone and control speaker is a major factor to decide ANC performance. When there are some reflections from both duct terminations, the noise attenuation using finite FIR filter is not enough to model the duct plant. Especially, the reflection from the upstream termination reduces the noise attenuation in the frequencies related to the distance between control speaker and upstream termination. The performance of the noise attenuation is found to be largely enhanced by using uni-directional coupler, both on detecting microphone and control speaker, even if the duct system has an arbitrary termination conditions.

In this paper, active control of noise in a HVAC duct is considered. Most adaptive control filters have used FIR structures based on filtered-x LMS algorithms. But, the IIR structures are more desirable for the active control of duct noise in order to remove the poles introduced by the acoustic feedback and presented an algorithm to adjust the coefficients of an IIR filter using the recursive least mean square (RLMS) algorithm. A smoothed LMS algorithm is proposed to improve a convergent speed of filter parameters when the noise is wide band and power of input is time varying. And computer simulations have performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper. a stable IIR adaptive filter for active noise control is proposed. The IIR filter structure is more effective when acoustic feedback exists, in which case an order of a FIR filter must be very large if some of the poles of the ideal control filter are near the unit circle. But the IIR filter may have stability problems especially when the adaptive algorithm is not converged. A stabilizing procedure for IIR adaptive filter is presented in this paper, and computer simulation is performed to show the effectiveness of proposed schemes.
