This paper investigates the underwater acoustic radiation from a periodically stiffened cylindrical shell excited resiliently mounted machinery. Underwater acoustic radiation is important to a submarine. Generally, submarine structure can be modeled as stiffened cylindrical shell immersed in water. Analytical model is derived for the far-field acoustic radiation from machinery installed inside cylindrical shell. The analytical model includes the effect of fluid loading and interactions between periodic ring stiffeners. Transmitted force from machine to a shell through isolator can be different by the impedance of shell. In this paper the effect of a shell impedance for acoustic radiation is investigated. Impedance of a shell should be considered if thickness of a shell is thin.

We have investigated on the development of 2-2 mode piezocomposites that have better piezoelectric activity and lower acoustic impedance than those of conventional piezoceramics. In this study, we have investigated the electrical properties and acoustic impedance of 2-2 mode piezocomposite which were fabricated using the dice-and-fill technique for the different volume fractions of PZT The volume shrinkage of polymer is an important factor in 2-2 mode piezocomposites fabrication. The thickness mode electromechanical coupling factor($\kappa_t$) of PZT was compared with that of piezocomposites. It was shown that the 2-2 mode piezocomposites were much better than the PZT only. The acoustic impedance of 2-2 mode piezocomposites decreased linearly when PZT volume fraction was decreased.

In this study, we have tried to find the optimized design variables of the matching layer which is important part of thickness mode ultrasonic transducer and finally reach the conclusion that the electrical property of piezo-element must be under consideration when the optimized acoustic impedance is estimated. Proper expression of the effective impedance of front load at free resonant frequency(: $Z_{f}$ $^{(0)}$ /) has been induced by introducing the principle of binomial multilayer transformer and gradient based numerical method is utilized to find the most acceptable value of $Z_{ f}$/$^{(0)}$ . Optimized point of acoustic impedance can be calculated directly from $Z_{f}$ $^{(0)}$ using some simple formula which we propose. We also verify our result by both numerical and experimental method and get a good enhancement especially it concern to the bandwidth of ultrasonic transducer.

Epoxy coating and sealing used in nuclear plants for the protection of radiation degrades with aging and hazardous atmosphere. In order to evaluate the degradation of the epoxy, dependence of the acoustic impedance on the change of mechanical properties has been used. Unlike metals, the surface of the epoxy coating on a concrete liner is so wavy that the acoustic impedance is difficult to measure by using the reflectivity of the ultrasound on the interface surface because of the irregular reflection and propagation from the epoxy surface. SA(simulated annealing) algorithm is applied to calculate the acoustic impedance using a reflection wave from the rough epoxy surface. The surface waviness and acoustic impedance are taken into account and determined by SA method to evaluate the state of degradation quantitatively.

A porous tube, comprised of a resin-coated woven fabric has recently been used as an effective component for use in intake systems of internal combustion engines to reduce the intake roaring. For the prediction of the acoustic performance of an engine intake system with a porous woven hose, the acoustic wall impedance of the hose must be known. Because of its peculiar acoustical and structural characteristics, the accurate measurement of the wall impedance ofa porous woven hose is not easy. A new measurement technique is proposed herein, that is valid over the low to mid frequency ranges. The acoustics impedance is inversely estimated from an overdetermined set of measured pressure transmission coefficients for specimens of different lengths and the reflection coefficient of end termination. The method involves only one measurement, and, as a result, it is very simple. The measured TL for samples with arbitrary conditions, arbitrary porous frequency, arbitrary length, and arbitrary mean flow condition, are in reasonably good agreement with values predicted from curve-fitted impedance data.

시료의 흡음률 측정을 위해서는 비용이 많이 드는 잔향실 혹은 저주파수에서의 측정에 한계가 있는 임피던스 튜브를 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로폰을 사용하지 않고 단지 스피커 임피던스와 이로부터 도출된 Thiele/Small 변수만을 사용하여 시료의 음향임피던스와 흡음률을 구하는 기법을 제안하였다. 스피커의 등가회로를 이용하여 이 방법의 이론을 설명하였으며, 시료의 측정을 통하여 본 방법의 유효성을 증명하였다. 본 방법은 기존에 신뢰하기 어려웠던 저주파 대역에서의 흡음률을 매우 쉽게 측정할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 방법의 장점과 제한사항, 그리고 응용 분야에 대해서 검토하였다.

In this paper, horn loudspeaker modeling was suggested, investigated and verified through comparison of test results and simulation ones based on input electrical impedance curves and acoustic sensitivity ones. First, Thiele Small parameters of horn driver were identified by using pseudo loudspeaker model concept and verified in case of both closed and open horndriver. Second, cone-shaped horn models were investigated and compared with input acoustic impedance curves for real horn(cone angle $6.6^{\circ}$) and short horn(cone angle $27.9^{\circ}$). It showed that Leach model for cone horn was well described to test results, which were electrical impedance and acoustic sensitivity, compared to Lemaitre one. To represent horn system model good approximation in wide frequency range, mass correction filter and lowpass filter were adopted and consequently showed good fitted to test results.

In this paper, we investigated the electric and acoustic properties of piezoelectric composites, which were fabricated using polymer and piezoelectric ceramics, when the volume fraction of PZT varies. Practically, the shrinkage rate of polymer is an important factor in ultrasonic transducer fabrication. When 10 wt% filler A was added into polymer(Epofix), the lowest shrinkage was resulted. The electromechanical coupling factor($k_t$) of the fabricated piezoelectric composites showed its highest when the volume fraction PZT was 0.6. It decreased if the volume fraction was higher than the value. The relative permittivity and acoustic impedance of piezoelectric composites decreased linearly when PZT volume fraction was decreased. The lowest acoustic impedance was 3.2 when the volume fraction of PZT was 0.2.

As a basic study to develop a high sensitive biosensor using film bulk acoustic resonator, the mathematical model for analyzing the resonance characteristics of bulk acoustic resonator with acoustic Bragg reflectors was investigated. The simulation results due to the number of acoustic Bragg reflectors with low and high acoustic impedance materials were compared with the experimental results for 1, 2.25 and 5 MHz of PZT based bulk acoustic resonators with various acoustic Bragg reflectors. At the fabricated bulk acoustic resonator with an odd number of acoustic Bragg reflectors, low and high acoustic impedance materials in sequence under the bottom electrode showed better resonance characteristics than even number of acoustic Bragg reflectors. The changes of resonance frequencies due to the increase of number of acoustic Bragg reflectors by simulation and experiment, respectively showed approximately similar tendency but some differences in input impedance between the experiment and simulation were found. The derived mathematical model for describing the resonance characteristics of the bulk acoustic resonator with acoustic Bragg reflector will be available for analyzing the design parameters for development of biosensor using bulk acoustic resonator.
