A two-stage iterative Fourier transform algorithm, based on hybrid input-output algorithm and new Pnoise algorithm, is used to design continuous and quantized phase-only diffractive pattern elements which produce arbitrary given intensity patterns via Fraunhofer diffraction. Numerical results for two $128\times128$ binary patterns and two grayscale patterns are compared with those of other algorithms. It is found that the algorithm yields better signal-to-noise ratio and even better uniformity with slightly lower diffraction efficiency than other algorithms. We investigated the dependence of performance on parameters used in the algorithm, size of noise region, and the number of phase levels for quantized elements. In the case of quantized phase elements, the size of noise region plays a greater role in determining the performance of the algorithm than given intensity pattern itself. tself.

We present a microscopic description for generation of 1/f noise in interfaces between cobalt thin film and silicon substrate. Along with surface resistance measurements and transmission electron diffraction observations. 1/f noise power spectral density has been measured for the interfacial structures at the liquid nitrogen temperature . The cobalt films have been deposited by the electron-beam evaporation technique onto p-type (100) silicon in the high vacuum condition. The measured noise power spectral density shows highest magnitude near the structural transition and metallization transition region. The noise magnitude rapidly decreased after the cobalt silicide nucleation. The noise parameter is concluded to be originated form the structural fluctuations.

In environmental impact assessment, noise impact assessment usually consists of three stages surveying the existing noise levels by measurements, predicting noise levels induced by construction works and predicting noise levels after the completion of project. When predicting noise level in urban area, this method does not consider acoustic phenomena like multi reflection, diffraction and absorption due to complex topographic configuration of building and terrains. For the purpose, a noise mapping tool is utilized to produce a series of noise maps, which are those for the present, for the works of construction and for the future. For accurate noise mapping, acoustical and topographic information is essential. Standard sound power levels and directivities of various construction equipments are required and scheduling of construction processes and locations of the equipments should be provided. In the case of exceeding legal limit, mitigation measures are applied to satisfy the legal limits and subsequent noise map is obtained and checked.

In the conventional model for the prediction of the railway environmental noise, one used an empirical formula of the total noise level at specific distances. Only a function of the distance to the source was also used to calculate the noise level near the railway bridges. However, the noise varies depending on the position of the receiver as well as the distance from the source especially at concrete bridges. In this paper, a noise propagation model in the railway concrete bridge was derived by considering the diffraction at the bridge deck and the ground effect and applying the ISO 9613-2 noise propagation model. We compared the predicted and measured values of environmental noise at a high-speed railway bridge, and it was confirmed that this prediction model gives relatively small errors.

In environmental Impact assessment, noise impact assessment usually consists of three stages-surveying the existing noise levels by measurements, predicting noise levels induced by construction works and predicting noise levels after the completion of a project. The distance-attenuation relation of a point source, which has been used to predict the noise level due to its simplicity does not consider complex acoustic phenomena like multi-reflection, -diffraction and -absorption due to complex topographic configuration of buildings and terrains. For the consideration of such physical complexities. a noise mapping tool is adopted to produce a series of noise maps, which are those for the present, tot the works of construction and for the future. For accurate noise mapping, acoustical and topographic Information is used. Standard sound power levels and directivities of various construction equipments are need and scheduling of construction processes and locations of the equipments should be provided. In the case of exceeding legal limit, mitigation measures are applied to satisfy the legal limits and subsequent noise map is obtained and checked.

Nowadays, the construction sites are growing in city every year, so complaints for construction noise have increased more and more. To analyze this noise scientifically, construction noise prediction program was developed in 1998 and 2005 but it is too difficult to apply program in field because there is few soundproof facilities and it can't understand the coordinate system and so on. The aim of this study is to develop noise prediction program to apply in construction sites. For this, the problems of existing program was analyzed and survey was performed to get requestion of field overseer and upgraded program. To get reliability of program, it was compared with sound measurement value in field. As a result, construction sound prediction program have various soundproof facilities data than existing program. It can also analyze multi receiver point at the same time for several construction machinery. Most of all, it is more powerful to set receiver or source in the axis of X, Y, Z. so program user can make use of it easily. An average of difference is -0.9$\sim$1.8dB.

This study examines the traffic noise reduction effects of the diverse efficiency features of a sunken square, and investigates the reduction effects and characteristics of noise alterations according to the construction conditions in order to verify its possibility as a new noise reduction facility. The measured data were analyzed. As a result, (1) the traffic noise from the roads around the sunken squares exceeded the regulatory standards; (2) the sunken squares were protected from noise; (3) the sunken spaces yielded a greater reduction by 6∼7dB than the flat ground thanks to the diffraction effect; and (4) there were fine changes to noise according to the conditions of space construction. In short, a sunken square has the potential to afford new applications as a noise reduction facility in a highly concentrated downtown with the existing defects solved. In addition, its use for effective noise control is evident based on the noise characteristics of a space. Future studies need to include efforts to provide clearer quantitative data, as well as research on shape, layout, and materials.

In this paper, development of the noise barrier analysis program is described. The upper part of barriers may have complicated shapes like "Y", "T", inverted L, and other shapes. The insertion loss of the barrier is predicted by summation of multiple diffractions occurring at top edge points. In addition, the program considers diffractions occurring at both vertical sides, while reflections from ground due to mirror images are also included. In case of two barriers at both sides of the road, reflections from the other side of barriers are considered, in which magnitudes are decreased by the ratio of absorption coefficient.

There are various Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) techniques used for measurement of residual stresses in material, such as magnetic methods, X-ray diffraction, Ultrasonic velocity measurement etc. The capabilities, applications and limitations of these techniques for evaluation of cold work/plastic deformation were studied and compared. Mild steel plates were subjected to different degree of cold deformation and were analyzed by Magneto-mechanical Acoustic Emission (MAE), Barkhausen Noise (BN) and magnetic properties (hysteresis loop parameters analysis). Further, these specimens were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and ultrasonic velocity measurements. The microhardness measurement and microstructure studies of these cold worked plates were also carried out. The results of all these studies and comparison of different techniques are discussed in this paper.
