This manuscript work presents a comprehensive continuum model capable to investigate the effect of porosity on vibro-acoustic behaviour of functionally graded (FG) beams resting on an elastic foundation subjected to thermal and mechanical loadings. Effects of uniform temperature rise and edge compressive load on the sound radiation characteristics are studied in a comparative manner. The numerical analysis is carried out by combining finite element method with Rayleigh's integral. Detailed parametric studies are accomplished, and influences of power law index, porosity volume, porosity distribution and boundary conditions on the vibro-acoustic response characteristics are analyzed. It is found that the vibro-acoustic response under mechanical edge compression is entirely different compared to from that under the thermal load. Furthermore, nature of grading of porosity affects the sound radiation behaviour for both the loads. The proposed model can be used to obtain the suppression performance of vibration and noise FG porous beams under thermal and mechanical loads.

Recently, in accordance with increase of the desire for Sports for All(Life Sports), the swimming pools in many areas are under construction. However, since they used many of the reflexible finish-materials on account of the characteristics of hydrophilic space, most of the Indoor Swimming Pools are generating the excessive reverberation. Such reverberation is bringing about the problem that obstructs the oral communication between the coach and the player, and the Clearness of Sound, besides the sport activity. On this viewpoint, on the object of the actually built indoor swimming pool, after the conduct of an optimized acoustics design by the remodeling through a computer simulation, and by carrying out the Psycho-Acoustics Experiment utilizing of Auralization Technique which is able to experience Virtual Sound Field at the stage of designing, then this thesis has attempted to appraise on the acoustic condition after the completion of construction. It is considered that such result of the study could be utilized as the useful data that enables to improve the curtailment effect of construction cost as well as the acoustic capability, by means of the presupposition control on the acoustic problem from the stage of design, for the occasion when the similar indoor swimming pool is planning to build, henceforth.

수중에서 물과 공기 다공을 갖는 다공성 매질의 주파수 및 다공율 변화에 따른 음향특성을 고찰하였다. 다공성 매질로서 원통형 다공을 인위적으로 균일하게 배열한 판형 루사이트 (Lucite)를 사용하였다. 수중에서 음파를 다공성 매질의 원통형 다공의 축 방향과 평행하게 입사하였을 때, 빠른 파 (fast wave)는 다공 내의 매질에 영향을 받지 않으나, 느린 파 (slow wave) 및 원통형 다공을 전파하는 비평면 고차 정상 모드 파 (nonplanar higher normal mode wave)는 다공 내의 매질에 크게 영향을 받는다. 3MHz부터 4MHz까지의 주파수 영역에서 전체 파 (total wave), 빠른 파 및 느린 파의 음속 및 음압투과계수를 주파수 및 물과 공기 다공율 변화에 따라 측정하였다. 비강체 다공성 매질에서의 음파 전파특성에 대한 MBA (modified Biot-Attenborough) 모델의 이론 결과와 실험결과를 비교, 분석하였다.

임의의 매질에서 음파의 전파는 매질의 고유물성 및 구조적 특성에 영향을 받게 된다. 본 연구는 의공학에서 관심을 가지는 골다공증 진단의 기초 물리적 음향 특성을 이해함에 목적을 두고 있다. 따라서 구조적 특성의 중요한 요소인 매질의 다공성에 초점을 두고 있으며, 비강체의 다공성 물질로써 루사이트 판에 원통 형태의 관을 균일하게 배열시켰고 이 관들의 배열을 다공성 구조로 간주하였다. 다공도는 본 연구에서 의미 있는 범위, 약 $0\%-30\%$에 제한하였으며, 다공도에 따른 음향 특성 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 다공도의 차이를 두었고, 관의 직경에 따른 음향 특성 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 같은 다공도와 두 종류의 관의 크기를 갖는 다공성 루사이트를 제작하였다. 실험은 수중에서 음파의 입사각에 대한 의존도를 배제하기 위하여 수직 입사에 대하여 수행하였고 사용된 주파수는 880kHz이다. 다공도 및 관의 크기의 변화에 따른 음파의 투과 계수의 변화를 관측하여 다공도 및 관의 크기의 변화에 따른 음향특성 변화의 상관 관계를 고찰함으로써 골다공증 진단에의 응용 가능성을 연구하였다.

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 $30^\circ$ 와 $60^\circ$ 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.

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.

In case of domestic performance hall, it is real situation that the demand of multipurpose hall that accommodative a lecture, gathering activity, drama and concert than a professional performance hall such as opera house, is on increasing. Accordingly, since such multipurpose hall, in view of its characteristics, is emphasizing the clearness of sound, also it requiring the repletion or abundance of sound simultaneously, it could be said that the sufficient examination and plan with regard to the architectural acoustics design is indispensable. However, since most of multipurpose hall has ever been designed and constructed without any consideration on an acoustic factor, many problem points are generating. Standing on such viewpoint, this Research has measured the physical acoustic characteristics about the small-scaled multipurpose hall recently built without any acoustic consideration, and through the above, tried to grasp the acoustic defect and controversial point thereof. It is deemed that such study result could be utilized as an important material for improvement the acoustic performance of the multipurpose hall.

As Music Room in Art School is mainly for exercise of musical instrument rather than any lecture or music appreciation, it should be designed and constructed in consideration with Acoustic Condition on the preferential basis. However, in case of Music Room in Art School that has been built already or latest newly constructed, since it was designed and constructed without any reflection of Acoustic Characteristics, it appeared as inadequate for them to enjoy music appreciation or performance activity. On such view point, this Study has examined the physical Acoustic Characteristics for the subjects on those Music Rooms of Art Middle School, Art High School, Art College built in Cheonbuk Province, and it is deemed that the material grasped in such way could be utilized as the valuable data enables to improve Acoustic Performance at the time when designing and construction or renovation for Music Room hereafter.

Three-cup anemometers are popular devices for measuring wind speeds in automated weather stations, environmental monitoring systems, and wind turbines. Cup anemometers usually suffer from lack of long-term stability owing to the wear of the bearing systems that support the rotational parts. The bearing systems are susceptible to external pollutants, vibrations, and gusts. Therefore, these anemometers have to be calibrated regularly to maintain the desired characteristics for measuring wind speed. In the present study, a new in-situ calibration system to help reduce cost and save time by calibrating the cup anemometers at the installation site is proposed. A portable in-situ calibrator was fabricated. After the characteristics of this calibrator were verified, it was used to calibrate cup anemometers. Some of the calibration results were compared with the data obtained by wind tunnel testing.

This paper investigates stage acoustics in concert halls for ensemble performance in terms of stage support parameters. A concert hall with large stage area was selected. Objective measurements were carried out according to Gade's methods for investigating stage support (ST1). The sound field on the stage was evaluated using stage and audience acoustical parameters. According to the positions at stage, different acoustical characteristics were found. Higher ST1 and lower $IACC_{E3}$ were measured near side and rear stage walls. In case of conductor/soloist vs. orchestra player, objective measurement of acoustical parameters shows that early sound fields depend on the source-receiver distance but late sound fields depend on the location of side and rear walls. In addition, in-situ evaluation of the trio instrumentalists was carried out. Results show that ensemble is favored by higher early reflection of sounds and sound diffusion affecting ‘blending’ of their performance.
