It is well known that tire tread pattern has much influence on the tire pattern noise. The paper describes the method of pattern noise reduction by using the pitch sequence, both on the smooth asphalt roads and on the trenched concrete roads. The noise of tire is classified as either airborne or structure borne noise. Pattern noise through the airborne is considered as a major noise source at high speeds. As block impacting and air pumping by tread patterns are major noise source, tire pattern noise can be greatly influenced by optimal pitch sequence. The goal of this paper is to provide tire engineers with pitch sequence to reduce pattern noise effectively.

The tire is considered as one of the Important noise sources having an influence on vehicle's performance. The Pattern noise of a tire is the transmission sound of airborne noise. On smooth asphalt road, Pattern noise is amplified with the velocity. In recent, the study on the reduction of Pattern noise is energetically processed. Pattern noise is strongly related with pitch sequence. To reduce the pattern noise, tire's designer has to randomize the sequence of pitch. The FFT is a traditional method to evaluate the level of the randomization of the pitch sequence, but gives no information on time-varying, instantaneous frequency. In the study, we found that Time-Frequency transform is a useful method to non-stationary signal such as tire noise.

In this paper, This work demonstrates a experimental evaluation for vehicle road noise NVH performance from the component-level NVH measurements of Tire. The power unit noise from tire emitted by cars has been reduced. It has been found that tire noise dominates noise produced by the power train when vehicles are driven at high constant speed. Therefore tire pattern noise is affected by pattern and vehicle and transmission loss. Tire noise mechanism is generated by several mechanisms. The sound of tire can propagate either through the air or through the structure of vehicle. Pattern noise is the result of pressure variations through the air to the interior side of vehicle. Especially, smooth asphalt, the periodicity of tread design, groove depth is important factor, which have an influence on the reduction of tire pattern noise.

Tire noise is divided into two parts. One is pattern noise the other one is road noise. Pattern noise primarily occurs in over 500 Hz frequency but road noise occurs mainly in low frequency. It is important to develop a technology to predict the pattern noise at the design stage. Prediction technology of pattern noise has been developed by using image processing. Shape of tire pattern is computed by using imaging signal processing. Its results are different with the measured one. Therefore, the prediction of actual measured pattern noise is valuable. In the signal processing theory is applied to calculate the impulse response for the measurement environment. This impulse response used for the prediction of pattern noise by convolving this impulse response by the results of image processing of tire pattern.

The noise pattern of a household refrigerator is dependent on the characteristics of its operating cycle which is repeated with a specific pattern depending on various parameters, such as room temperature and performance of its mechanical parts. Analysis of noise pattern is essential prior to evaluation of sound quality of a refrigerator. In this study, 14 units of refrigerator were classified into 4 types according to noise pattern and sort of mechanical part, which helps to analyze characteristics of refrigerator noise. Sound quality metrics(loudness, sharpness, roughness, and fluctuation strength) were calculated to compare noise pattern of the 4 types of refrigerator. The results of this study can be useful to decide noise performance of refrigerator.

It is well known that a refrigerant-induced noise is caused by two-phase flow in the indoor unit of a heat pump air-conditioner. Especially when the flow pattern in a pipe is intermittent flow, the irregular noise occurs frequently. But it is very difficult to avoid this kind of the noise for the application of air-conditioner. Therefore, in this research, the flow patterns at two-phase flow state in a pipe of the indoor unit for the air-conditioner are researched using cycle simulator at typical cycle conditions. In order to find the relationship between refrigerant-induced noise and flow pattern, the noise patterns are investigated with respect to the estimated flow pattern from the various flow pattern maps. Base on the estimations of the flow patterns by those maps, the refrigerant-induced noise is evaluated as decreasing tube diameter, which can transit the flow pattern from slug to annular flow.

Tire noise is divided into a road noise(structure-borne noise) and a pattern noise(air-borne noise). Whilst the road noise is caused by the structural vibration of the components on the transfer path from tire to car body, the pattern noise is generated by the air-pumping between tire and road. In this paper, a practical method to estimate the pattern noise inside a passenger car is proposed. The method is developed based on the sound intensity and airborne source quantification. Sound intensity is used for identifying the noise sources of tire. Airborne source quantification is used for estimating the sound pressure level generated by each noise source of a tire. In order to apply the airborne source quantification to the estimation of the sound pressure, the volume velocity of each source should be obtained. It is obtained by using metrics inverse method. The proposed method is successfully applied to the evaluation of the interior noises generated by four types of tires with different pattern each other.

In this study, a numerical estimation method for 3D underwater radiated noise pattern using hull vibration and total acoustic power of the vibrating structure in the far-field is proposed. The underwater radiated noise pattern is known to be predicted using the vibration signals and radiation efficiency of each surface patch. But it is very difficult to know radiation efficiency of each surface patch which is one of important factors to calculate the 3D underwater radiated noise pattern. Instead of using radiation efficiency of each patch, the underwater radiated noise level is modified with the total acoustic power of the vibrating structure. The suggested estimation method for underwater radiated noise pattern is discussed with numerical model.

Nowadays concrete pavement is increasing, since it is more durable than asphalt pavement. And the concrete pavement with lateral rain groove may induce high level of concrete whine noise as pure tone. In this paper, the design factor for good concrete whine noise is considered in view of tire pattern and structure design. In respect of tire pattern design, the tire having a cap tread with high center part stiffness and low shoulder part stiffness shows best concrete whine noise performance. And in respect of tire structural design, the tire with a thick center part of cap tread and low tread part stiffness show best concrete whine noise performance.
