For noise and vibration order-analysis on rotating machinery, it is compulsory to measure the RPM of the rotating part of the machine. Normally the RPM is measured using dedicated tacho-probes. In this paper we describe a new method that in real-time synthesizes a tacho signal from the measured noise or vibration signal thus eliminating the tacho probe. The method strengths and weaknesses are evaluated on practical signals.

Prediction method of floor impact noise for light and heavy weight impact is described. Sound pressure level is predicted based on the impedance method. For floating floor system, noise reduction is studied assuming 1-D mass-spring system. It is found that comparisons of predictions and measurements show good agreements. However, certain correction factor is needed to predict noise reduction of floating floor system.

Apartment and large residence buildings are necessary to ensure a comfortable noise/vibration environment. So. it must be performed a anti-vibration/noise evaluation at early design stage, such as utility room arrangement, machinery installation method and so on. In this paper. environment noise status on problem areas, which was issued by resident. was investigated to understand the noise transmission property generated from underground machinery room and to device a optimized countermeasure in order to enhance noise environment. Also, the measured noise levels before and after modification works are compared to confirm the effectiveness of proposed countermeasure.

Purpose: Recently, environmental pollution and safety problems in agricultural production have become important issues. Initially, bio-production machines focused on high production efficiency rather than workers' safety and comfort, but this trend slowly has changed as time went on. Methods: This study was carried out to identify sound efficiently and reliably for noise reduction by using a combine cabin model. Ethylene propylene diene monomer (M-class) rubber (EPDM) was applied to improve noise reduction performance from parts connected directly to the front, rear, left side, and bottom side of the cabin. Results: As a result, an average noise reduction of 1.85 dB was achieved in the normal hearing range between 500 Hz to 2 kHz. Conclusions: Reducing the cabin noise levels can reduce a worker's fatigue, improve working environment, and contribute to future low-noise and high-quality cabin environment.

In this paper, noise and vibration reduction for floating-floored ship cabin is studied. A mock-up is built by using 6 mm steel plate, and two identical cabins are made for simulation of ship cabins. When a speaker is used as a sound and vibration sources, it is shown that floating floor is more effective in isolating sound than bare deck by 2-5 dB. It is also shown that structure-borne noise of the bare deck is greater than that of floating-floored deck by 3-10 dB. For tapping machine excitation, it is found that the effect of floating floor in airborne noise and structure-borne noise reduction reaches up to 40-50 dB for high frequency ranges.

In this study, the test results obtained from the performance tests for CA (Korea Association of Cleaning Air) certificated air cleaners which had been commercially available in Korea from 2003 to 2015 were analyzed. Among the test parameters such as flow rate, particle collection efficiency, clean air delivery rate (CADR), ozone emission, odor removal efficiency and noise level, noise level and CADR were correlated with flow rates. Collection and odor removal efficiencies were 20% higher than the limit of the CA certification. The ozone emissions from the air cleaners were negligible because all the air cleaners were equipped with only HEPA filters, not electrostatic precipitation method which produces ozone.

A severe noise in industrial field can be sometimes generated from unexpected installation error and misunderstanding of industrial machinery. To solve the noise problem, the diagnostic tool is generally applied to identify the noise source and to detect the fault of machinery. And then, the suitable control countermeasure corresponding to the diagnostic results is presented. In this paper, two control cases an noise problem of the Incineration Plant and the Pump are introduced.

The necessity of diagnosis of the rotating machinery which is widely used in the industry is increasing. If rotating machinery has fault, we can detect fault using vibration or noise. But, in diagnosing rotating machinery, the end user who doesn't have expert knowledge needs the help of vibration diagnosis expert. However, vibration diagnosis experts who well satisfy the demand of end user are rare. So, this paper propose a development of the case-based reasoning system for abnormal vibration diagnosis of rotating machinery we construct the past experiences of vibration diagnosis expert into case base and shear the experiences of diagnosis expert with the end user. In this paper, we describe that process of structured system and adapting result of abnormal vibration diagnosis of electric motor.

Sound insulation performance of a unit cabin mock-up is studied, where two identical rooms simulating cruise ship cabin are installed. STL (Sound Transmission Loss) measurement in the mock-up shows that STL of the partition between rooms is degraded by imperfect door ceiling and gap between wall and floor. It is also observed that gap around lighting and electrical outlet slightly affect the STL in high frequency ranges, since lighting and electrical outlet are supported by mineral wool in the back side due to fire-resistance requirement. Even after all possible gaps are sealed, STL of the partition is found to be lower than that measured in the laboratory by 9 dB. Measurement of SBN (Structure-Borne Noise) reveals that flanking transmission of SBN along the steel deck floor can severely deteriorate STL of the partition. Statistical energy analysis (SEA) of the mock-up confirms importance of the floor SBN control, in which increasing damping is essential to ensure high STL.
