  • In this study, the application of ANC (Active Noise Control) technology to address inter-floor noise was explored. To achieve this, an ANC system was developed to manage the heavy impact sound within the frequency range of 40 to 500 Hz. The ANC system utilized an adaptive filter employing a feedforward approach based on the Fx-LMS algorithm. To set up the ANC system, a comprehensive analysis of various variables within the system was performed using computational simulations. This process enabled the identification of optimal filter settings and system configuration arrangements. In addition, the ANC system was implemented in the inter-floor noise test room at the Korea Conformity Laboratories (KCL). Through a certified standard testing procedure, it was confirmed that the ANC system led to a 4 dB reduction in inter-floor noise when the system was activated compared to when it was turned off. The results of this study indicate that the developed ANC system has an effect significant enough to elevate the rating criteria by one level for heavy impact sound.

  • The response to noise may differ depending on the respondent's noise sensitivity. In this study, it was investigated that the noise sensitivity, the annoyance and disturbance of floor impact noise and opinions on their neighbors. The questionnaire respondents were divided into two or three groups based on noise sensitivity, and annoyance and disturbance on floor impact sound were compared. The noise sensitivity questionnaire method was presented. The questionnaire survey was conducted on 233 residents of Seoul, Gyeonggi - do area. As a result of the questionnaire survey, when the sensitivity group was divided into three groups, it was found that there was a significant difference between the groups with the noise sensitivity and the disturbance reaction. As a result of the opinions on their neighbors, positive responses to neighbors increased with age. Also, it was found that there was a low perception of inter - floor noise and life disturbance of the group having positive feelings about neighbors.

  • The overall noise reduction was compared in regard to the vibrational characteristics of floor impact noise in a multi story residential building which has several noise reduction treatments. The vibration through its structural elements such as wall, floor and ceiling and sound emitting were investigated for each insulation treatment. It was found that, in case of heavy-weight impact noise, the vibration energy is emitted mostly from ceiling, but for the light-weight impact noise, most of the energy comes through ceiling and walls.

  • In this study floor impact noise and structure acceleration response of bare concrete slabs were predicted by using Finite Element Analysis(FEA). Prediction results were compared with experimental results to prove the accuracy of numerical model. Acoustic absorption were addressed by using panel impedance coefficients with frequency characteristics and structural modal damping of numerical model were applied by modal testing results and analysis of prediction and test results. By using frequency response function, the floor acceleration and acoustic pressure responses for various impact sources were calculated at the same time. In the FEA, the natural frequencies and the shapes of vibration and acoustic modes can be estimated through the eigen-value analysis, and it can be visually seen the vibration and sound pressure field and the contribution of major modes.
