The simplified impedance model which can consider a combined flow condition was suggested. Although the strength and position of the shear layer cannot be obtained by a linear sum of two separate contributions when both flows occur together, it was simply assumed that the impedance under the combined flow follows from summing the separate flow impedance. To validate the simplified impedance model, acoustic properties of a concentric resonator was predicted and measured. The predicted transmission loss using the simplified model shows reasonable agreements with measurements. One can find that the simplified impedance model obtained by the superposition of the separate flow impedances can be adjusted to predict the acoustic properties of a concentric resonator.

A linear acoustic analysis is conducted to examine bituning of acoustic resonators for acoustic damping in a combustion chamber of liquid rocket engine. Bituned resonators are tuned to the two principal modes, the first tangential(1T) and the first radial(1R) modes. First, the acoustic-damping effect of monotuned resonators is investigated. The damping capacity is quantified by damping factor as a function of the number of the resonators monotuned to 1T or 1R mode. Next, the damping characteristics of the bituned resonators are investigated. From the numerical data, the number of resonators, to be tuned to 1T and 1R modes, respectively, can be selected properly.

A Rijke tube which has an electric heater and a flow controller was designed and thermo-acoustic instability was induced by the Rijke tube. The thermo-acoustic instability was damped by a resonator and the damping characteristics were investigated and compared to room temperature acoustic test. Results show that decay time of the thermo-acoustic condition was increased by about 40% compared to that of room temperature acoustic test.

This study deals with the effects of major geometric parameters on the sound wave output of a thermal acoustic system. The output power of the acoustic wave was dependent on the stack position, stack length, resonator tube length, and input power. In experiments, the maximum SPL was generated when the stack was placed between one-fourth to half, resonator and stack length were longer, and input power was increased. The frequency was recorded to be 437 and 885 Hz when the resonator tube length was 200 and 100 mm, respectively. Therefore, when the resonator tube length was shorter, a higher frequency was recorded.

In this paper, we studied a ZnO-based film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) device fabricated on a specially designed multi-layerd Bragg reflector part. Very thin chromium adhesion layers (0,03um thick) were additionally deposited to improve the quality of the Bragg reflector and some thermal treatments were performed to improve the resonant characteristics of the device. At the operating frequency of ${\sim}2.7GHz$, excellent resonant characteristics were observed in terms of return loss and quality factor, and effective electromechanical coupling coefficient. These findings are expected to be highly promising and effective for improving the performance of the FBAR devices at high frequency.

Helmholtz resonator is used to reduce noise of the narrow frequency band. It has high transmission loss at its resonance frequency. The silencer that combines many resonators could control broadband noise at low frequency. To convey this rather simple idea, serial and parallel arrangement of resonators have been tested to obtain high transmission loss characteristics in the band of which are selects. Theoretical and experimental results explain these characteristics in the absence of mean flow. The change of acoustic characteristics by the resonance frequencies and resonators arrangement are explained by using the equivalent Impedance analysis that is defined in this paper. It shows that the transmission loss has a maximum value when the separation distance between each resonator is λ/4 of its wavelength.

The 2 GHz film bulk acoustic wave resonator(FBAR), one of the most necessary device of the next generation mobile communication system, consisted of solidly mounted resonator(SMR) structure using Brags reflector, was researched in this paper The FBAR applied SiO$_{2}$ and W had large difference of the acoustic impedance to reflector Al to electrode and ZnO to piezoelectric layer. Specially, the FBAR applied the two-step deposition method to improve the c-axis orientation and increase reproducibility of the fabrication device had good performance. The electrical properties of plasma such as impedance, resistance, reactance, $V_{pp},\;I{pp}$, VSWR and phase difference of voltage and current, was analyzed and measured by RF sensor with the variable experiment process factors such as gas ratio, RF power and base vacuum level about concerning the thickness, c-axis orientation, adhesion and roughness.

In this paper, the method of material constants extraction in a thin-film bulk acoustic resonator(FBAR) using a genetic algorithm(GA) is proposed. The material constants are extracted from the input impedance of a FBAR by a GA optimizer. The characteristics of the FBAR input impedance affected by the material constants were studied to decide the fitness function for GA. As a result, the fitness was estimated by the series- and parallel -resonance frequencies and the FBAR bandwidth, as determined from the input impedance of the FBAR. A flowchart for the GA and a procedure fur the proposed extraction method are explained in detail, and the results of the material constants extraction are presented.

Classical method calculates the resonance frequency of Helmholtz resonator by postulating that there is a moving mass in neck and a stiffness which expresses the compressibility of cavity. This has been widely accepted as reasonable to determine the resonant frequency, provided that the wave length of interest is longer that any length scale of resonater. Nevertheless, it has been often recognized that this classical method sometimes does not well predict the resonant frequency. This paper decribes the way in which the dynamics of resonator very often does care about the detail geometries of resonator; location of the neck, diameter ratio of the neck to that of cavitty, length of resonator compared with that of neck, etc. This rather unexpected observations have been proved theoretically; 3 dimensional analysis of acoustic wave equation, as well as experimentally by comparing the resonant frequencies, transmission loss, and insertion loss of resonator.

Damping characteristics of a Helmholtz resonator to passively control the combustion instability were investigated by linear acoustic analysis and atmospheric acoustic tests. Its orifice length and diameter were selected as the design parameters and supplied SPL(sound pressure level) effect on damping characteristics were investigated. Damping capacity is improved by decreasing the orifice length as well as by increasing the orifice diameter. Also, the results showed that the damping capacity of the resonator decreased nonlinearly about above 110 dB and instabilities in the nonlinear region were more effectively suppressed by increasing the orifice diameter.
