  • 본 연구에서는 무반향 수조의 내벽 흡음 물질로 사용되는 무반향 타일을 쐐기형으로 제작하여 쐐기의 꼭지 각 변화에 따른 음향학적인 특성을 고찰하였다. 실험에서 사용된 쐐기형 무반향 타일의 크기는 $40{\cal}cm{\times}38.5{\cal}cm$ 이며, 타일을 구성하는 각 쐐기의 길이는 $2.75{\cal}cm$로 고정하고 각각 쐐기의 꼭지각이 $30^\circ$$60^\circ$ 인 타일을 제작하였다. 수중에서 쐐기가 없는 무반향 시료와 쐐기형 무반향 타일에 음파를 수직 입사하여 반사계수를 측정하였으며, 쐐기의 유무와 무반향 타일을 구성하는 쐐기의 꼭지각 변화에 따른 반사 및 흡음 특성을 고찰하였다. 음향특성 임피던스가 $2.14\times10^6$ Pa$\cdot$s/m인 쐐기형 무반향 타일을 25kHz 에서 100kHz의 주파수 영역의 음파를 입사했을 애 쐐기의 꼭지각이 $30^\circ$ 일 때 $60^\circ$보다 압력반사계수가 작고, 반사손실이 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 그 결과로써 본 실험에서 사용된 $30^\circ$의 쐐기 꼭지각을 갖는 무반향 타일이 내벽 흡음 물질로서 성능이 더 좋다는 것을 확인하였다.

  • In this study, the effect of treating 1-dimensional diffusers on the classroom acoustics was investigated to determine if the diffuser are beneficial for performing the preferred acoustical conditions for speech. A 1/10 scale model of a classroom was used to measure the acoustical parameters, T30, $C_{50}$, STI and SNR in that room. The room acoustical conditions were varied by treating diffusers either on the front or side walls of the classroom. When the diffusers were treated on the side walls around the student's areas, a shorter reverberation time at low frequencies was obtained and resulted in performing uniform reverberation times across the frequency bands. The $C_{50}$ values at mid- and high-frequencies were increased by treating the diffusers either on front or side wall surfaces. The highest STI and SNR values were obtained when the diffuser was treated on the front wall around the teacher's areas. It is found that diffusers are beneficial to increase the intelligibility of speech for the rear seats of the rooms.

  • This research is to measure real-time temperature distribution inside a tissue-mimicking phantom for the safety and effectiveness evaluations of focused ultrasound (FUS) device capable of linear scanning stimulation. Since the focusing area of the FUS stimulation device is smaller than diameter of conventional thermal probe and keeps moving, it is impossible to monitor temperature distribution inside the phantom. By using the phantom with a thin film temperature sensor array inserted, real-time temperature change caused by the FUS device was measured. The translation of the measured temperature peak was also tracked successfully. The present phantom had been experimentally proven to be applicable to validate the performance and safety of the therapeutic ultrasound devices.

  • This paper describes the acoustical conditions of elementary school and high school classrooms as well as university classrooms in Korea and suggests a need for Korean acoustic standards and guidelines for classroom design. Current standards and guidelines of classroom acoustics in several countries were briefly introduced to understand their acoustical performance criteria for background noise levels and reverberation times, and noise isolation design requirements in various types of classrooms. The results of several acoustic survey of domestic classrooms in elementary school, high school, and university were described and compared to provide information of the acoustic characteristics of Korean school classrooms. The survey includes occupied and unoccupied data on the acoustical conditions, noise levels, and noise isolation performance in the classrooms. Acoustical parameter values for achieving 'good' speech intelligibility in active university classrooms were also presented.
