The present work addresses an experimental study on sound attenuation characteristics of silencer by live firing test. When a gun fires, there exists excessive noise which propagates as a form of blast wave. As muzzle energy of the weapon systems increases, the level of impulsive noise also increases. It is well known that the impulsive noise from a gun gives a serious damage to human bodies and structures. The adverse effects of impulsive sound also cause both social and military problems. So it is very important to study the characteristics of the impulsive sound attenuation. The live firing test is performed to evaluate the effect of four different silencers. The test result is compared with the case of bare muzzle which is not installed the silencer. The frequency characteristics are also analyzed to investigate the diminution of sound pressure level. The results of this study will be helpful to the designing silencer for large caliber weapon systems.

DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) is one of the most widely used method to estimate the phasor of a relaying signal. The harmonics are eliminated by the DFT. However, high frequency components, except for harmonics, are not removed and cause an error in DFT-based phasor estimation process. This paper suggests high frequency noise reduction method by using a newly designed low-pass filter to estimate a signal phasor. When selecting a stop-band cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter, high frequency components generated by faults are considered. To reduce the phasor estimation delay caused by a low-pass filter, this paper proposes a low-pass filter whose settling time is reduced. An adverse effect of high frequency noise on DFT-based phasor estimation is reduced. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, signals which are collected under a fault condition at a 345[kV] transmission system modeled by EMTP-RV are used.

A computer-generated hologram(CGH) is made for three-dimensional image reconstruction of a virtual object which is a difficult to irradiate the laser light directly. One of the adverse effect factors is quantization of wave front computed by program when a computer-generated hologram is made. Amplitude element is not considered in Kinoform, it needs processing to reduce noise or false image. So several investigation was reported that the improvement of reconstructed image of Kinoform. Means to calculate the most suitable complex amplitude distribution are iterative algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm and genetic Algorithm. Error diffusion method reconstructed to separate the object as for the noise that originated in the quantization error. So it is efficient method to obtain high quality image with not many processing.

As the micro-technologies in the high precision manufacturing processes are developed, the demand for micro actuating device is increasing. But, it is difficult to achieve high resolution and wide operating range simultaneously with the conventional actuating systems which are contacting and type of dual servo system. So, the contact-free surface actuators whose movers are suspended or levitated were proposed. These systems can be applied to high precision stages and alignment apparatuses. The suspended mover can be assumed to be rigid body, but the mover is a structure in this study, therefore the vibration caused during the operating process has a serious adverse effect on the performance and it is very important to identify the vibrational characteristics. In this paper, a contact-free surface actuator is modeled in finite element method and updated by using the experimental modal data. Finally, the static and dynamic characteristics of the finite element model are predicted and then discussed.

발파작업시 발생하는 진동 소음은 주변에 존재하는 보안물건에 손상을 입힐 수 있다. 또한, 사람 및 가축에게 정신적으로 피해를 줄 수 있다. 그래서 피해가 예상되는 보안물건의 특성을 고려하여 허용 진동 소음 기준을 설정하여 관리하고 있다. 특히, 어패류는 수중에서 생활하기 때문에 지표면에서 사육되는 동물보다 더욱 진동에 대하여 민감하게 작용하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문의 현장에서는 발파지점으로부터 약 840m정도 떨어진 지점에 대규모 장어 양식장(이하 양만장)이 존재하고 있다. 그래서, 현장 발파작업시 진동 소음으로 인한 피해가 우려된다. 본 논문에서는 발파 작업을 수행하기 전 설계단계에서 실규모 시험발파를 수행하여 양만장의 발파진동 소음을 측정하였다. 그 결과 발파소음은 설정한 허용기준 이내로 나타났다. 그러나 발파진동이 허용기준을 초과하였다. 따라서, 발파진동에 대해서는 기존의 경험적 방법을 통해 영향검토를 수행하였다. 그리고 새로운 3차원 수치해석방법을 통해검증하였다. 이 검토과정을 간략히 서술하였다. 그리고 양만장과 같이 발파진동 소음에 민감한 보안물건 주변 발파설계시의 발파진동 영향검토 방법을 제안하였다. 또한 발파진동 소음제어 설계방법을 소개하고자 한다.

Wind power is one of the most reliable renewable energy sources and the installed wind turbine capacities are increasing radically every year. Although wind power has been favored by the public in general, the problem with the impact of wind turbine noise on people living in the vicinity of the turbines has been increased. Low noise wind turbine design is becoming more important as noise is spreading more adverse effect of wind turbine to public. This paper demonstrates the design of 10 kW class wind turbines, each of three blades, a rotor diameter 6.4m, a rated rotating speed 200 rpm and a rated wind speed 10 m/s. The optimized airfoil is dedicated for the 75% spanwise position because the dominant source of a wind turbine blade has been known as trailing edge noise from the outer 25% of the blade. Numerical computations are performed for incompressible flow and for Mach number at 0.145 and for Reynolds numbers at $1.02{\times}10^6$ with a lift performance, which is resistant to surface contamination and turbulence intensity. The objective in the low design process is to reduce noise emission, while sustaining high aerodynamic efficiency. Dominant broadband noise sources are predicted by semi-empirical formulas composed of the groundwork by Brooks et al. and Lowson associated with typical wind turbine operation conditions. During the airfoil redesign process, the aerodynamic performance is analyzed to minimize the wind turbine power loss. The results obtained from the design process show that the design method is capable of designing airfoils with reduced noise using a commercial 10 kW class wind turbine blade airfoil as a basis. The new optimized airfoil clearly indicates reduction of total SPL about 3 dB and higher aerodynamic performance.

A review study was conducted to examine the adverse effects of styrene, styrene mixtures, or styrene and/or styrene mixtures and noise on the auditory system in humans employed in occupational settings. The search included peer-reviewed articles published in English language involving human volunteers spanning a 25-year period (1990-2015). Studies included peer review journals, caseecontrol studies, and case reports. Animal studies were excluded. An initial search identified 40 studies. After screening for inclusion, 13 studies were retrieved for full journal detail examination and review. As a whole, the results range from no to mild associations between styrene exposure and auditory dysfunction, noting relatively small sample sizes. However, four studies investigating styrene with other organic solvent mixtures and noise suggested combined exposures to both styrene organic solvent mixtures may be more ototoxic than exposure to noise alone. There is little literature examining the effect of styrene on auditory functioning in humans. Nonetheless, findings suggest public health professionals and policy makers should be made aware of the future research needs pertaining to hearing impairment and ototoxicity from styrene. It is recommended that chronic styrene-exposed individuals be routinely evaluated with a comprehensive audiological test battery to detect early signs of auditory dysfunction.

Cell-phone becomes a necessary communication device in modern society. However, a paging signal by a sound transducer often acts as an unpleasant noise, thus necessitating a paging signal by a vibration motor. The conventional flat type vibration motor uses three-phase windings with three phase coils. In this article, a new design of a vibration motor using a V connection with two phase coils is presented, increasing mass productivity. For electromagnetic field analysis, due to the motor symmetry, two-dimensional modeling can be implemented for fast computation, and performance is predicted by the finite element method. The winding distribution angle turns out to be the most important design parameter for the elimination of dead points, and a new coil configuration is suggested which has no adverse effect on motor size and weight. Experimental tests of vibration confirm the validity of the proposed design.

Barium suspension, oral iodine contrast medium and water were applied in eight dogs to evaluate (1) distension of gastrointestinal tract, (2) the effect of the oral contrast media on the identification of the pancreas from surrounding organs, and (3) image quality and the presence of artifacts in canine pancreas computed tomography (CT) images. Oral iodine contrast medium, gastrografin, produced significant artifacts that deteriorated the CT images of the pancreas. The use of water did not provide the fullness of the gastrointestinal lumens. Barium suspension was effective for the identification of the pancreas from the surrounding gastrointestinal tract, without significantly increasing image noise. Barium suspension can be used as an optimal contrast medium that will not cause an adverse effect on the pancreatic density and image quality.
