본 논문은 피치를 추출하는 방법으로 자기상관을 이용하였다. 시간과 주파수 영역의 자기상관은 서로 다른 특성을 가지고 있으며, 각각 피치주기와 기본주파수에 대응된다. 본 논문에서는 시간과 주파수 영역에서의 자기상관을 결합하는 방법을 이용하였다. 이 방법은 자기상관에서 발생하는 피치 doubling과 having 에러를 크게 개선시킬 수 있었다. 하지만, 시간과 주파수 영역에서 유성음의 주기적 특성인 피치주기와 기본주파수는 서로 역수 관계이며, 특히 기본주파수의 에러는 FFT의 분해능에 의하여 발생된다. 이러한 영향을 줄이기 위하여 시간 영역과 주파수 영역에서의 자기상관 결합에 보간법을 적용함으로써 피치 검출율을 향상 시킬 수 있었다. 자기상관을 결합할 때 시간영역에서 찾은 피치후보들에 대해서만 주파수영역의 자기상관을 구함으로써 계산량은 감축될 수 있었다. 또한, 선형보간을 이용하여 기존방법 보다 FFT 계수를 8배 줄일 수 있었다. 그 결과, FFT 연산량과 주파수영역의 자기상관 계산량을 크게 감축하여 기존 방법 대비 알고리즘 처리시간을 약 9.5배 줄일 수 있었다.

An experimental study was carried out to investigate the reduced frequency effect on the near-wake of an elliptic airfoil oscillating in pitch. The airfoil was sinusoidally pitched around the center of the chord between -5$^{\circ}$and ＋25$^{\circ}$angles of attack at an airspeed of 3.4 m/s. The chord Reynolds number and reduced frequencies were 3.3 ${\times}$10$^4$, and 0.1, 0.7, respectively Phase-averaged axial velocity and turbulent intensity profiles are presented to show the reduced frequency effects on the near-wake behind the airfoil oscillating In pitch. Axial velocity defects in the near-wake region have a tendency to increase in response to a reduced frequency during pitch up motion, whereas it tends to decrease during pitch down motion at a positive angle of attack. Turbulent intensity at positive angles of attack during the pitch up motion decreased in response to a reduced frequency, whereas turbulent intensity during the pitch down motion varies considerably with downstream stations. Although the true instantaneous angle of attack compensated for a phase-lag is large, the wake thickness of an oscillating airfoil is not always large because of laminar or turbulent separation.

The vocal pitch is controlled by the tension, mass, and length of the vocal fold. It is well known that cricothyroid approximation raises the vocal pitch by simulating the contraction of the cricothyroid muscle, and there were so many reports that have noted a relationship between cricothyroid distance and pitch control, but there does not seem to be any single generally accepted theory to account for this connection. It is generally known that the strap muscles are active during low and falling Fo, and the suprahyoid muscles are active during high and raising Fo. These findings can be related to a general picture of the motion of the larynx during changes in Fo, the cricothyroid joint would tend to lengthen the vocal folds, as the larynx moves up and forward, and relax them as it moves back and down. In this study, we suggest that the relationship between anterior cricothyroid distance and fundamental frequency of the larynx was so complex according to the level of larynx and vertebral curvature. The higher the level of larynx, the wider the cricothyoid distance, but there is more greater fundamental frequency even though more wide cricothyroid distance. This phono-menon seems to be due to the multifactors, especially the vertical tension of the conus elasticus or the change of cricothyroid articulation. It is generally known that the crocothyoid and vocal is muscles are very closely related to pitch elevation, but sternohyoid muscle seems to be more closely related to pitch lowering. By this electromyographic studies, the sternohyoid muscle have dual activity to pitch control, increased activity during the low fundamental frequency and falling pitch, but also increased activity during the higher fundamental frequency and raising pitch at least in this study.

Spinning detonations propagating in a circular tube were numerically investigated with a one-step irreversible reaction model governed by Arrhenius kinetics. Activation energy is used as parameter as 10, 20, 27 and 35, and the specific heat ratio and the heat release are fixed as 1.2 and 50. The time evolution of the simulation results was utilized to reveal the propagation mechanism of single-headed spinning detonation. The track angle of soot record on the tube wall was numerically reproduced with various levels of activation energy, and the simulated unique angle was the same as that of the previous reports. The maximum pressure histories of the shock front on the tube wall showed stable pitch at Ea=10, periodical unstable pitch at Ea=20 and 27 and unstable pitch consisting of stable, periodical unstable and weak modes at Ea=35, respectively. In the weak mode, there is no Mach leg on the shock front, where the pressure level is much lower than the other modes. The shock front shapes and the pressure profiles on the tube wall clarified the mechanisms of these stable and unstable modes. In the stable pitch at Ea=10, the maximum pressure history on the tube wall remained nearly constant, and the steady single Mach leg on the shock front rotated at a constant speed. The high and low frequency pressure oscillations appeared in the periodical unstable pitch at Ea=20 and 27 of the maximum pressure history. The high frequency was one cycle of a self-induced oscillation by generation and decay in complex Mach interaction due to the variation in intensity of the transverse wave behind the shock front. Eventually, sequential high frequency oscillations formed the low frequency behavior because the frequency behavior was not always the same for each cycle. In unstable pitch at Ea=35, there are stable, periodical unstable and weak modes in one cycle of the low frequency oscillation in the maximum pressure history, and the pressure amplitude of low frequency was much larger than the others. The pressure peak appeared after weak mode, and the stable, periodical unstable and weak modes were sequentially observed with pressure decay. A series of simulations of spinning detonations clarified that the unsteady mechanism behind the shock front depending on the activation energy.

This paper presents a scheme for experimentally analyzing bounce, roll and pitch frequencies of major systems of a large truck using a multi-axial road simulator. The excitation input (amplitude and frequency range) fur a frequency response test with the multi-axial road simulator is selected in order that bounce, roll and pitch modes are not coupled each other, the excitation amplitude can be reproduced in a specified excitation frequency range, and tires do not lose contact with posters. Three accelerometers, one gyroscope and four displacement meters are used in the frequency response test using the multi-axial road simulator. The reliability of the presented bounce mode frequency response test scheme is validated by comparing the result from a test using the multi-axial road simulator with the result from a road driving test. The road driving test is performed with velocities of 20km/h and 30km/h, and in an unladen state. The vertical accelerations at the cab and the front axle are measured in the road driving test. The roll and pitch mode frequency response tests are also performed with the presented frequency response test scheme. Roll and pitch frequencies of major systems of a large truck that are hard to acquire from a road driving test are analyzed as well as bounce frequency.

The pitch tracking of music has been researched for several decades. Several possible improvements are available for creating a good t-distribution, using the instantaneous robust algorithm for pitch tracking framework to perfectly detect pitch. This article shows how to detect the pitch of music utilizing an improved detection method which applies a statistical method; this approach uses a pitch track, or a sequence of frequency bin numbers. This sequence is used to create an index that offers useful features for comparing similar songs. The pitch frequency spectrum is extracted using a modified instantaneous robust algorithm for pitch tracking (IRAPT) as a base combined with the statistical method. The pitch detection algorithm was implemented, and the percentage of performance matching in Thai classical music was assessed in order to test the accuracy of the algorithm. We used the longest common subsequence to compare the similarities in pitch sequence alignments in the music. The experimental results of this research show that the accuracy of retrieval of Thai classical music using the t-distribution of instantaneous robust algorithm for pitch tracking (t-IRAPT) is 99.01%, and is in the top five ranking, with the shortest query sample being five seconds long.

Pitch is a perception related to the subjective frequency that is one of the psychological aspects or attributes of tones. It is also an important factor to determine the sound quality together with loudness and timber. Although the study on pitch has been active in the field of speech communication, but its application to the product sound quality is not yet enough. In this study, the empirical data by Zwicker is made use in the modification of the currently available pitch extraction model based on the place theory. By applying this modified model to various sound samples composed of tonal or banded components, the applicability of the model is suggested. As a demonstration example, the algorithm is used for the sound quality analysis of a product noise having fundamental frequency and harmonics. The result shows that the pitch should be regarded as an important subjective cue in the sound quality analysis.

유성음의 피치주파수 궤적을 추정할 수 있는 새로운 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 에너지연산자［1］를 두 번 적용하는데 기초하고 있다. Kaiser의 에너지연산자는 정현파의 진폭과 주파수 정보를 추출하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 변조모형에 의하면 유성음은 피치 신호로 변조된 포만트들의 합성으로 파악될 수 있으므로 이 파형의 진폭 포락선을 추출해서 피치 신호와 유사한 파형을 얻는다. 이 파형의 평균 주파수를 검출하여 피치 주파수를 구하는 것이다. 앞부분은 Gopalan의 접근법［9］과 마찬가지이나, 뒷부분의 LPC-스펙트럼 분석등의 과정 대신 또 한번 에너지 연산자를 적용하도록 하여 매우 단순화되고 온라인 적용이 가능한 알고리듬을 얻었다. 추정 결과는 거친 편이지만 온라인으로 피치 궤적의 일반적 스케치를 얻는데 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
