In order to investigate the vortex body frame interaction around the side mirror of a passenger car, velocity vector fields in the wake, pressure distributions and boundary layer flows over both the mirror surface and the mirror housing, have been measured by several experimental tools. It was resulted that only within an half downstream distance of the mirror span there appears the recirculation zone, and also found that vortex trail towards to the driver side window between A and B pillars, making the acoustic noise and vibration. Wake vortex rolls up after this recirculating zone and makes the trail of the vortex center towards the driver side window, which was also confirmed by measurements of wake velocity vectors in the vertical sections of the trail and visualization over the side mirror surfaces as well. It was also observed that total pressure distribution over the mirror surface has the minimum peak near the lower tip region which can be considered as the origin of the vortex center. It can be concluded that the geometrical modification of the lower tip and the upper root area of the mirror housing is the key to control the wake vortex.

Praat is a useful analysis tool for linguists, engineers, doctors, speech-language pathologits, music majors, and natural scientists. Basic parameters including duration, pitch, energy and perturbation parameters such as jitter and shimmer can be easily measured and manipulated in the sound editor. When a more in-depth analysis is needed, it is recommended to understand the advanced menus of the object window and learn how to use them. Among the object window menus, vowel formant analysis, spectrum analysis, and cepstrum analysis can be cited as useful ones in the clinical field. The spectrum object can be usefully used for voice quality measurement and diagnosis of patients with voice disorders by showing the energy distribution according to frequency axis (domain). A cepstrum object is useful for speech analysis when periodicity of the sound object is not measurable. The low to high ratio obtained from the spectral object and the CPPs measured from the cepstrum object have attracted many researchers, and it has been proven that the CPPs measured in Praat are relatively excellent.

We developed a surface acoustic wave (SAW) computer aided design (CAD) for mobile communication using Kaier window function. The systems are composed of modules for designing apodization weighted IDT-uniform IDT, withdrawal weighted IDT-withdrawal weighted IDT, and resonator type. The design of SAW bandpass with center frequencies from 222MHz to 343MHz were simulated by the developed CAD system. Although the method proposed in this paper is formulated primarily for SAW filters, it is equally applicable to finite impulse response (FIR) digital filter design.

The role of the window length of time-frequency transformation is important for the audio data hiding methods utilizing phase information. In this paper, the experiments for our audio data hiding method were conducted in order to evaluate the audio quality and robustness against reverberant environment. The experimental results showed the tendency that the worse audio quality but better robustness were obtained when the lengthy window was applied. The important reason for quality degradation was pre-echo which flatters the percussive sound. The results also indicated that the wireless communication theory related to the length of time-frequency transform can be applied in the field of audio data hiding and acoustic data transmission.

A low frequency, high power hydroacoustic transducer with 7 tonpilz piston elements assembled in a circular array suitable for marine application, such as the transmission of underwater information and the development of new fisheries resources in the deep sea zone was designed. A modified Mason's model was applied to monitor and to simulate the transducer behavior at each step during the fabrication. The in air, and in water constructed tonpilz transducer was tested experimentally and numerically by changing the size and the type of the material for head, tail and acoustic window. Also, the developed transducer was excited by pulse signals and the received waveform was analyzed. The resonance peaks in the transmitting voltage response(TVR) of a single tonpilz element without housing were observed at 11.33kHz in air and 10.93kHz in air and 10.93 kHz in water, respectively, with the overall electrical-acoustic efficiency of 43.7%. The value of TVR of single tonpilz element with aluminum housing in water was 129.87dB re 1 $\mu$Pa/V at 12.25 kHz with the frequency bandwith of 2.15 kHz and half beam angle of 30.2$^{\circ}$at -3dB.The resonance peaks in the transmitting voltage response of the 7 element circular transducer were observed at 11.50 kHz in air and 11.45 kHz in water, respectively. The value of TVR in water 144.84 dB re 1$\mu$Pa/V at 11.5kHz with the frequency bandwith of 4.25 kHz and the half beam angle of $22.3^{\circ} $ at -3dB.Reasonable agreement between the experimental measurements and the theoretical predictions for the directivity patterns, TVRs and the impedance characteristics of the designed transducer was achieved.

This study was performed to construct sound performance DB of royal palace buildings and to examine the special quality more scientifically. Research target of royal palace were Changdeokgung and Gyeongbokgung. Sound insulation performance between the adjacent room and facade, room acoustics of Pyeonjeon and Chimjeon which is representative building in royal palace were examined through field measurement. Measured values of RT($T_{mf}$) at Pyeonjeon were 0.78 sec. and 1.03 sec. in Seonjeongjoen and Sajeongjoen, respectively. The RTs of both Pyeonjeon buildings were estimated suitable for speech and lecture considering their volume. The RT($T_{mf}$)s at Chimjeon were measured in range of 0.29~0.55 sec. This meant that the acoustic energy in rooms was decreased by sound transmission through mulberry paper(Hanji) of traditional windows and doors. As a sound insulation performance, the single-number quantities($D_{ls,2m,nT,w}$) of the building facades in Pyeonjeon and Chimjeon were measured 4~20 dB. Also the single-number quantities($D_{p,w}$) between the adjacent rooms in Chimjeon were measured 3~18 dB. Sound insulation performance of traditional building elements such as window and door depended strongly on their layers and area.

소음방사의 이해 및 효과적인 소음제어를 위해서는 소음원의 특성, 음장의 공간상 방사 특성 등을 아는 것이 중요하며, 이를 위해 많은 연구가 진행되 어 왔다. 특히 다수의 마이크로폰 어레이를 이용한 음향 홀로그래피 방법에 의한 실험적 음장 예측 방법이 소개되었고 연구가 진행됨에 따라 많은 실용 가능성을 보여 주었다. 음향 홀로그래피 방법에는 측정상 제한이 필연적으로 존재할 수밖에 없는데, 이에 따른 오차가 존재하며 결국 예측음장의 신뢰도 를 떨어뜨리는 요인이 된다. 본 연구의 목적은 측정조건에 따른 오차의 요인 을 고찰하고 이를 정량적으로 표현함으로써 음향 홀로그래피 방법의 적용에 도움을 주고자 한다. 평면 음향 홀로그래피에 나타나는 오차는 둘러 싸기 오 차(wraparound error), 앨리애싱(aliasing), 창문영향(window effect)으로 나 눌 수 있는데, 오차는 측정구경의 크기와 마이크로폰 사이의 간격등의 측정 조건 뿐만 아니라 음원의 특성, 홀로그램 평면의 위치 등에 직접적인 영향을 받게 된다. 본 연구에서는 오차해석을 위한 기본 연구로써 점음원(monopole) 과 쌍극자(dipole)음장의 파수 스펙트럼을 해석적으로 구하고 이를 기본으로 평면 음향 홀로그래피 적용시 존재하는 앨리애싱에 대해 고찰하고 전산기 모의 실험 (computer simulation)을 통해 오차를 최소화하는 측정조건을 제 시하고자 한다.

Optimal transducer positions are important as much as the control algorithms and hardware performance in the active noise control system. This study is similar to the past researches on the optimal transducer locations but with a far field noise source having a plane wave characteristic and the noise coming through an opening such as a window in an enclosure. Optimization techniques are used to find sets of optimal loudspeaker positions from a larger possible loudspeaker positions. Loudspeakers are placed on the surface of opening at the wall and inside of the enclosure. Using the measured acoustic transfer impedances and numerical simulations with the optimization technique, optimal positions are identified and compared. When a small number of loudspeakers are used. loudspeaker positions on the opening near the center seems to be the best place, but when a larger number of loudspeakers are used it was difficult to find simple patterns in the optimal positions. With the optimally positioned loudspeakers, optimal microphone positions are also studied.

This study is similar to the past researches on the optimal transducer locations but with a far field noise source having a plane wave characteristic and the noise coming through an opening such as a window in the enclosure. An optimization technique called simulated annealing algorithm is used to find a set of optimal loudspeaker positions from a larger possible loudspeaker positions. Loudspeakers are placed on the surface of opening at the wail. Using the measured acoustic transfer impedances and numerical simulations with the optimization technique, optimal positions we identified and compared. When a small number of loudspeakers are used, loudspeaker positions on the opening near the center seems to be the best place, but when a larger number of loudspeakers are used it was difficult to find simple patterns Un the optimal positions.
