Numerical analysis was performed to investigate the heavy-weight impact noise of apartment houses. The FEM is practical method for prediction of low-frequency indoor noise. The results of numerical analysis, the shape of the acoustic modes in room-2 are similar to that of acoustic pressure field at the fundamental frequency of acoustic modes. And the acoustic pressure was amplified at the natural frequency of the acoustic modes and structural modes. The numerical analysis result of sound pressure level at 63 Hz and 125 Hz octave-band center frequency are similar to the test results, but at 250 Hz and 500 Hz have some errors. Considering most of bang-machine force spectrum exists below 100 Hz, the noise at 250 Hz and 500 Hz are not important for heavy-weight impact noise. Thus, the FEM numerical analysis method for heavy-weight impact noise can apply to estimate heavy-weight impact noise for various building systems.

The structure has several types of noise and booming noise of a vehicle is usually caused by the vibration of the vehicle's body transmitted from the engine through the mounting system. Vector synthesis analysis is performed to predict the booming noise when the characteristic of the engine mounting system is changed., i.e., when magnitudes and phases of vibratory forces after the mounts are altered. To use this method effectively, the concept of Multi-dimensional-analysis and Experimental Design are introduced to identify the contributions of each vibration sources and transmission paths to interior noise. It was used 3inputs/1output system and found the magnitudes and phases of the forces for minimizing the noise. Finally, the synthesized interior booming noise level is predicted by the vector synthesis diagram. It is shown that the vector synthesis method can be used to obtain the optimum design characteristic of the mounting system to control the interior booming noise of a vehicle.

In this paper, an alternative method was introduced to conduct a transfer path analysis for airborne noise. The method used the transfer function matrix composed of acoustic transfer functions that are referenced by the input voltage of a calibration source. A calibration factor which is converting a virtual voltage to source strength was deduced by vibro-acoustical reciprocity theorem. The calibration factor is then multiplied to the virtual input voltage to estimate the operational source strength. Three loudspeakers were used to noise sources of acrylic half car model. The method was applied to airborne noise transfer path analysis of the half car. The estimated source strength by transfer path analysis was compared the deduced source strength by vibro-acoustical reciprocity to verify the method.

With the urbanization in recent years, the power line interference noise in electromagnetic signal is increasing day by day, and has gradually become an unavoidable component of noises in magnetotelluric signal detection. Therefore, a kind of power line interference noise elimination method based on independent component analysis in wavelet domain for magnetotelluric signal is put forward in this paper. The method first uses wavelet decomposition to change single-channel signal into multi-channel signal, and then takes advantage of blind source separation principle of independent component analysis to eliminate power line interference noise. There is no need to choose the layer number of wavelet decomposition and the wavelet base of wavelet decomposition according to the observed signal. On the treatment effect, it is better than the previous power line interference removal method based on independent component analysis. Through the de-noising processing to actual magnetotelluric measuring data, it is shown that this method makes both the apparent resistivity curve near 50 Hz and the phase curve near 50 Hz become smoother and steadier than before processing, i.e., it effectively eliminates the power line interference noise.

This paper presents the static analysis, the modal analysis and the forced vibration analysis on engine structures to find out the structure-borne noise sources by finite element method. The deformation of engine structures under the maximum combu- stion gas force was calculated through the static analysis, and the resonance possibilities were predicted by the modal analysis which ascertains mode shapes and the corresponding frequencies of engine global and its major noise sources in engine surfaces were investigated with the forced vibration analysis by means of finding the transfer mobilities on engine surfaces due to the piston impact and the velocity levels due to the combustion in consideration of oil film stiffness and damping coefficients. Finally, the direction of engine structure-borne noise reduction can be estabilished by the above-mentioned analysis procedure and the reduction effect of cost on proto-type engine build-up is expected.

As the exterior noise emitted by a vehicle is getting more and more attention, simulated pass-by measurements become more important. This well established method provides information about the total noise emitted by the vehicle. For a vehicle manufacturer it is not only interesting to know about the total noise but also to know how this total exterior noise is composed of different contributions, such as for example the contribution of the engine, the intake or exhaust system. Transfer path analysis (TPA) provides a separation of these contributions for each of the pass-by microphones alongside the track. Presented is a method for fast and efficient determination of the contributions of multiple sources using operational transfer path analysis (OTPA). The calculation of the transfer characteristics between the reference measurement points on the vehicle and the corresponding response points of both microphone lines are carried out while operation of the vehicle. As result of the contribution analysis from operational transfer path analysis, the characteristic noise level as function of the covered distance is displayed for all individual sound sources, thus providing in depth information for sound quality engineering.

The transfer function method is a widely used in the analysis of underwater radiated noise of ships because it is simple to implement and gives a simple way in the design stage requiring trade-off studies on various kinds of noise sources. In this study, a framework is implemented based on the transfer function method. The framework is interfaced to a software providing transfer functions of hull force to underwater radiated noise. The transfer function-based underwater radiated noise analysis approach is reviewed and the implemented framework structure is described. As an example, a numerical calculation of a virtual ship is carried out and its results are investigated in terms of applicability to real ship design project.

This paper presents a practical method for reduction of interior noise and improvement of sound quality in compartment of passenger car. The tested vehicle has a booming noise problem at rear passenger seats. In order to identify the transfer path of interior noise, the running modal analysis, the vibro-acoustic frequency transfer response and the noise path analysis are systematically employed. Using these various methods, it has been founded that the rear part of the roof of the test car was a noise source for the booming noise. Through the modification of the roof, the booming noise has been reduced and sound quality inside car also has been improved.

We derive analytical expressions for the output spectral density and the noise power $P_{\beta}$ in noise loading analysis using Volterra kernels to characterize fiber nonlinearities. The bandwidth of the input noise source has little effect on $P_{\beta}$, but the power of the input noise source and the dispersion parameter value of the fiber have a significant effect on $P_{\beta}$. The Volterra method predicts ${\Delta}P_{\beta}[dB]$ = 30 dB/decade, which agrees very accurately over a wide range of fiber parameters compared with the numerical results by the split-step Fourier method. Therefore the Volterra method could be useful to predict the performance of a dense WDM system when we plan to upgrade fiber or increase signal power.

This paper investigates the use of boundary element method(BEM) to analyze the insertion loss of a noise barrier. To begin with the validity of the BEm for the analysis of noise barrier insertion loss in checked by both Lam's theoretical method and the measurements in the anechoic chamber for the scale-down models. Through simulation it is shown that using 2D BEM model is sufficient to the analysis for the barrier with large ratio of length to height. By using 2D BEM model the insertion loses are predicted for the real noise barriers in several cases which are the case that they are built parallel on both roadsides the one that there are multiple sound sources and the one that there is a gap between a concrete structure and a barrier plate.
