In mobile phones of multimedia era, microspeakers of high quality sound are essential parts to generate human voice in speaker phone and MP3 song player. In this paper, two types of microspeakers, outer permanent magnet (PM) and combined PM type, are analyzed using electromagnetic, mechanical, acoustical and their coupling analysis. For performance comparison, voice coil diameter is chosen as a design parameter to change excitation position and magnet volume for both types. For combined PM type, sound pressure level (SPL) is improved due to increased PM volume compared to outer PM type. Also, with the decreased voice coil diameter for combined PM type, the 1st resonant mode of the diaphragm is more efficiently excited due to concentrative excitation, resulting in lower and broader frequency range. Therefore, it can be said that the combined PM type microspeakers are more advantageous for high performance microspeaker which are essential for multimedia era.

A dash panel plays an important role to protect noise as well as heat. Meanwhile, it is also the most important path that transfers energy to the interior cavity, so that some of noises are transferred via air and its structural vibration becomes a major issue. From the viewpoint of NVH performance, simplified structures analogues to the dash wall are dealt with. Stiffeners, damping sheets and sound packages attached to a flat panel are taken into account as design variables. Structural radiation characteristics(thus, structure borne) such as radiation efficiency and radiation power are mainly discussed. For the case when an excitation is applied on a frame that surrounds the panel, it is shown that the radiation efficiency increases by attaching a stiffener to the panel, which is similarly found from the case when a panel is directly excited. It seems more effective to attach damping sheets along the boundary area of the panel rather than its middle area. The radiation efficiency of sound packages may make a dominant contribution to transmission loss as well as sound radiation. Experimental work was carried out to verify the results based on the simulation study.

Hull Mounted Sonar (HMS) is a long range submerged vehicle's hull-mounted passive sonar system which detects low-frequency noise caused by machineries of enemy ships or submerged vehicles. The HMS needs a sound absorption /insulation multi-layer structure to shut out the self-noise from own machineries and to amplify signals from outside. Therefore, acoustic analysis of the multi-layer system should be performed when the HMS is designed. This paper simplified the HMS multi-layer system to be an infinite planar multi-layer model. Also, main excitations that influence the HMS were classified into mechanical, plane wave and turbulent flow excitation, and the investigations for each excitation were performed for various models. Stiffened multi-layer analysis for mechanical excitation and general multi-layer analysis for turbulent flow excitation were developed. The infinite planar multi-layer analysis was expected to be more useful for preliminary design stage of HMS system than the infinite cylindrical model because of short analysis time and easiness of parameter study.

An exhaust muffler is one of the simple and effective means to meet the demand for a quiet vehicle, and it deserves a close attention to effectively reduce the engine noise. The transfer function technique is one of the tools that have been used to analyze the noise characteristics of the exhaust muffler. In this paper we obtained a transfer function using the forward-going and backward-going components of sound pressure in the exhaust muffler, which is compatible wiht lattice filter algorithm. This form of transfer function is obtained for the basic elements of a muffler, such as uniform tube, open termin- ation, closed termination, anechoic termination, expansion, contraction, extended-tube resonator, hole, Helmholtz resonator, and concentric hole-cavity resonator. The results are combined to produce the transfer function of various types of mufflers. With this transfer function we calculate the transmission and insertion losses of mufflers, and examined the effects of various design parameters. Comparisons were made between the calculation and experimental results, which showed a good agreement, and we conclude that the transfer function of lattice form can be used to analyze the noise characteristics of the exhaust mufflers.

The paper considers one of the new applications of computer methods in music composition, using smart nanobeams-an integration of advanced computational techniques with new, specially designed materials for enhanced performance capabilities in music composition. The research applies some peculiar properties of smart nanobeams, embedded with piezoelectric materials that modulate and control sound vibrations in real-time. The study is conducted to determine the effects of changes in the length, thickness of nanobeams and the applied voltage on acoustical properties and the tone quality of musical instruments with the help of numerical simulations and optimization algorithms. By means of piezo-elasticity theory, different governing equations of nanobeam systems can be derived, which are solved by the numerical method to predict the dynamic behavior of the system under different conditions. Results show that manipulation of the parameters allows great control over pitch, timbre, and resonance of the instrument; such a system offers new ways in which composers and performers can create music. This research also validates the computational model against available theoretical data, proving the accuracy and possible applications of the former. The work thus marks a large step towards the intersection of music composition with smart material technology, and, when further developed, it would mean that smart nanobeams could revolutionize the process for composing and performing music on these instruments.

As the economic power is improved and the customer's demand is hard to please, the noise and vibration is the most important yardstick that can determine the quality of the product. Especially, as the airconditioner's demand increase suddenly, the product of quality and the noise is becoming a decisive factor of determining whether purchase the product or not. Therefore, every manufactory is investing a lot of money and research to cut down the unpleasantness induced from noise and vibration. And they are emphasizing their product's difference by advertising a silence very actively. With these reason, the demand of a silent indoor air-conditioner is the essential research filed when the product is develop(:d. In this study, the noise and vibration is visualized in the space and frequency domain by using experimental methods such as operational deflection shape (ODS), modal testing and sound intensity. Also the location of noise source and its characteristic is analyzed in an acoustical point of view to reduce the structure borne noise that come from the fan motor, and the pertinent control method is suggested. Furthermore, the most suitable shape of the motor bracket is suggested by applying FEM and DOE (Design of experiments) in the noise and vibration point a view.

International Convention Center Jeju(ICCJ) was planed and built for accommodating a variety of conventional and exhibitional activities. For a better flexibility of operation, almost all rooms in ICCJ are designed to be subdivided Into a couple of small rooms with installation of movable partition walls. Architectural and acoustical design should be deliberatively and cooperatively undertaken to cope with such a complex condition. Conference hall, the largest room in ICCJ, has a capacity of 5000 seats who:1 used as a whole. It could be divided into 3 halls, one with 2000 pre-installed seats on slanted floor, up/down removable stage and its settings above, and the other 2 flat rooms with no seats installed. A devided hall with pre-installed seats and stage is designed for a multi-use auditorium. Almost all surfaces except ceilings adjacent to the stage are sound absorptively treated, in regard to extensive use of sound reinforcement systems. Its reverberation time 1.65 sec without audience, which is roughly correspond to 1.50 sec with fully occupied audience. When there is a need for a larger room, all the partition wail Is removed and the hall could be used as a whole. Exhibition hall is located in the first floor of ICCJ. Absorption and softness are needed for the hat 1 because exhibition behavior has something noisy features. Perforated MDF panels with porous materials and air space in the back groundare adopted for the walls. There are one large, two medium, and several small convention rooms in ICJJ. The room are also acoustically designed for maximum flexibility with no defects soundwisely.

Ultrasonic guided waves have attracted increasing attention for non-destructive testing (NDT) and structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridge cables. They offer advantages like single measurement, wide coverage of acoustical field, and long-range propagation capability. To design defect detection systems, it is essential to understand how guided waves propagate in cables and how to select the optimal excitation frequency and mode. However, certain cable characteristics such as multiple wires, anchorage, and polyethylene (PE) sheath increase the complexity in analyzing the guided wave propagation. In this study, guided wave modes for multi-wire bridge cables are identified by using a semi-analytical finite element (SAFE) technique to obtain relevant dispersion curves. Numerical results indicated that the number of guided wave modes increases, the length of the flat region with a low frequency of L(0,1) mode becomes shorter, and the cutoff frequency for high order longitudinal wave modes becomes lower, as the number of steel wires in a cable increases. These findings were used in design of transducers for defect detection and selection of the optimal wave mode and frequency for subsequent experiments. A magnetostrictive transducer system was used to excite and detect the guided waves. The applicability of the proposed approach for detecting and locating wire breakages was demonstrated for a cable with 37 wires. The present ultrasonic guided wave method has been found to be very responsive to the number of brokenwires and is thus capable of detecting defects with varying sizes.

공동주택단지 및 학교 및 근린시설의 경계방음벽으로 제시한 식생형 방음벽을 설계하고 소음감쇠성능실험을 실시하였다. 본 논문에서 제시한 식생형 방음벽은 일정한 형태의 유닛을 방음벽 형태의 구조물에 걸이식으로 적층하여 구성된 것으로서, 유닛내부에는 식재 및 토양을 포함하고 있다. 이 방음벽의 음향적인 장점은 토양 및 식재를 이용한 흡음뿐만 아니라 확산형상의 방음벽에서 표면 확산으로 인해 음에너지가 분산되어 소음을 저감할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 먼저 1/10 축소모형 실험을 통해 소음감쇠성능에 가장 적합한 방음벽 유닛의 크기를 조사하였으며, 설계된 도면에 따라 1/2축척의 식생형 방음벽을 실제높이 2 m, 길이 5 m로 제작하여 소음감쇠실험을 진행하였다. 식물을 담을 수 있는 총 1,137개의 식생블록은 약 $10{\times}10{\times}9cm$ 크기로 합성목재를 활용해 제작하였으며 이 블록들을 방음벽에 설치하여 자립형 구조를 가진 식생형 방음벽을 완성하였다. 연구결과, 평면형 방음벽보다 블록식 방음벽이 약 7 dB 더 높은 삽입손실을 나타냈으며, 식생블록의 크기는 삽입손실효과가 큰 $20{\times}20cm$의 크기가 적정한 것으로 나타났다.
