The important source of noise from railways is rolling noise caused by wheel and rail vibrations induced by acoustic roughness at the wheel-rail contact. The main contributors for rolling noise are the sleepers, rail and wheels. In order to analyze and predict rolling noise, it is necessary to understand the vibrating behaviors of railway tracks, as well as the wheels. In the present paper, theoretical modelings of the railway track are reviewed in terms of the rolling noise, and they are applied for the three representative types of domestic railway tracks operated: the conventional ballasted track, KTX ballasted track and KTX concrete track. The characteristics of waves propagating along rails were investigated and compared between the tracks. The tracks were modeled as discretely supported Timoshenko beams and compared in terms of the averaged squared amplitude of velocity which is directly related to the sound radiation from the rails.

Currently domestic criteria for the aircraft noise is being adapted WECPNL(weighted equivalent continuous perceived noise level), while internationally preferred method is which is originated from $L_{eq}$ and can evaluate even environmental noise. WECPNL used in domestic as a evaluation method is only for the aircraft noise. It is, therefore, not adequate for the evaluation of residents' injury, moreover, it is very difficult to measure the aircraft noise with WECPNL due to the complicated calculating procedures as long as automatic measuring system is not used. Accordingly, this study aims to propose alternative evaluation method for the aircraft noise. To achieve this purpose, the data measured by automatic measuring system were gathered and calculated with three evaluation methods： WECPNL, $L_{eq}$ and $L_{dn}$ and the results calculated from different methods were compared and analyzed.

The noise and vibration diagnostic of the industrial robot reducer is ultimately the purpose. We evaluated a noise and vibration tendency of the industrial robot reducer to be made in the outside (RV reducer) through the experiment. Also, we compared the RV reducer to the industrial robot reducer (RD reducer) in the domestic. We measured the noise level with the sound level meter and analyzed the vibration tendency with the waterfall plot. Through the comparison of RV reducer and RD reducer diagnose the industrial robot reducer. We guessed the improvement direction of RD reducer. (The domestic's industrial robot reducer).

Noise mapping covers the whole mapping process from the collection of raw data, storage and retrieval of the data for computation/modeling, to the presentation of information related to outdoor sound levels, sound exposure, noise effects or numbers of affected person. This presentation can be in either a graphical or numerical form. In Europe, the Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise is now being implemented in the EU Member States. Here, The first maps for major areas are required by mid 2007, and action plans required one year later. These activities are repeated at five yearly intervals and all defined areas are incorporated in the following round of deadlines starting in 2012. The above are minimum requirements and some countries are expected to go further and faster. In this study, present status of domestic and international noise maps has been introduced to implemente the Korean noise map standard. This will help to get more convenient and, more fair result, and produce correct map at domestic level.

Passengers are much interested in ineroir noise caused speed-up and mass reduction of railway vehicles. Generally, the major noise source for passenger cars are rolling noise and aerodynamic noise. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the noise level and to analyze the noise sources for domestic and KTX trains. We also measured the interior noise and the rolling noise for passenger cars. In result, the noise level is below 65dBA for Seamaeul coachs, and below 66dBA for KTX coachs.

Many residential areas are situated near to railroad tracks so that a railroad noise has been one of the major environmental issues. In this paper two important aspects have been investigated in order to properly evaluate the railroad vehicle noise : sound power levels for different types and sound propagation characteristics of the railroad vehicles. For noise source characteristics of railroad vehicles, sound power values for various types of trains that are in active service have been measured. In this paper, domestic railroad vehicles are measured and compared with high speed train(TGV). Based on sound power information of railway vehicles, prediction on the sound pressure level and equivalent noise level near to railway areas have been evaluated.

The concrete track system on domestic urban transit has being constructed since 1974. Because a maintenance and repair of concrete track system is convenient, a construction is increased. The concrete track system on domestic urban transit is constructed 71.8% of total track system length and constructed variously, for example STEDEF, LVT, ALT and so on. Recently, railway noise is issued as environment problem. The method for mitigation of urban transit noise is required. In this study to study noise characteristics on concrete tracks we measured noise by concrete track types and analysis the result.

In this paper, we perform a study on the directionality of broadband ship radiation noise, mainly resulting from propeller cavitation. By examining a few foreign studies for ship radiation noise and domestic data measured in Korean waters, it is reconfirmed that the asymmetric directionality of the ship radiation noise at bow and stern aspect is observed commonly. In order to explore the reason of this asymmetric directionality, a numerical analysis, based on the acoustic boundary element method, is applied into the geometric form equal to the commercial ship used in the domestic experiment. The numerical result demonstrates that the diffraction of the propeller cavitation noise by ship is a primary cause of the bow-stern asymmetry in the directionality of ship radiation noise.
