The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the field applications and the noise reductions of micro surfacing pavement, which is often used to reduce environmental problems. A traffic noise mechanism was analyzed and a modified mix design method was proposed for nighttime constructions. Results on noise measurements using the statistical pass-by method showed noise reductions of 2.0 to 7.1 dB were observed. In addition, results on noise measurements using the close proximity method demonstrated that noise reductions of 5.6 to 6.7 dB were recorded under vehicle speed of 80km/h. The noise measurements revealed that the close proximity method was more stable than the statistical pass-by method. As a result, the effect of micro surfacing pavement on noise reductions was proved through the research. It is considered that the micro surfacing pavement method could be used as a preventive maintenance method and a comfortable noise reducing pavement technique.

As society has developed rapidly toward a highly advanced digital information age, a multimedia communication service for acquisition, transmission and storage of image data as well as voice has being commercialized. However, image data is always corrupted by various noises during image processing, so researches for removing noises have been continued until now. There are diverse types of noise on the image including salt and pepper noise, AWGN, and mixed noise. Hence, the filter algorithm for the image recovery was proposed that salt and pepper noise was processed by linear interpolation, histogram weighted values and median filter after defining the noise to lessen the impact of mixed noise added in the image, and AWGN was processed by the pixel information of local mask establishing the weighted values in this study. In addition, the algorithm was compared with the conventional methods for objectively and used the PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) as the basis of the determination.

The moving picture blur noise of LCD is measured and the characteristics of it are evaluated. From the results, blur noise is generated only when the sight line moves while pursuing the moving image and blur noise is not generated when the sight line is fixed. In addition, decrease of gray level by the image blur has a linearity and velocity dependence. The blur noise simulator based on this experimental results is developed. From the results of blur noise simulation, the faster the moving speed of image is, the more blur noise has increased and these agree with the results of measurement. In the result of simulating blur noise characteristics by the duty ratio control of backlight, noise is reduced by lowering of the duty ratio. but the blur noise increases if there is in the both of adjacent two frames. Moreover, the case of doubling the frame rate to 120[Hz], decreasing the moving speed of the image by making an new image between the adjacent two frames brings the reduction of blur noise.

A three-dimensional aerodynamic model and a vehicle dynamics model are established to investigate the effect of noise barrier on the dynamic performance of a high-speed train running on an embankment in crosswind in this paper. Based on the developed model, flow structures around the train with and without noise barrier are compared. Effect of the noise barrier height on the train dynamic performance is studied. Then, comparisons between the dynamic performance indexes of the train running on the windward track and on the leeward track are made. The calculated results show that the noise barrier has significant effects on the structure of the flow field around the train in crosswind and thus on the dynamic performance of the high-speed train. The dynamic performance of the train on the windward track is better than that on the leeward track. In addition, various heights of the noise barrier will have different effects on the train dynamic performance. The dynamic performance indexes keep decreasing with the increase of the noise barrier height before the height reaches a certain value, while these indexes have an inverse trend when the height is above this value. These results suggest that optimization on the noise barrier height is possible and demonstrate that the designed noise barrier height of the existing China Railway High-speed line analysed in this article is reasonable from the view point of the flow field structure and train dynamic performance although the noise barrier is always designed based on the noise-related standard.

This study investigated noise characteristics of air cleaners and humidifiers in terms of frequency domains and measurement directions. Noise levels of 31 air cleaners and 36 humidifiers were measured in an anechoic chamber according to the related group standards. As for air cleaners, 5 receiving points of 1 m off from front, rear, left, right and top surfaces of the product were considered. In case of humidifiers, 4 receiving points without the rear position were considered in the same manner as air cleaners. In each case, A-weighted equivalent continuous sound level was measured three times for 1 min. As a results, most of the measured air cleaners and humidifiers showed the highest noise levels at top directions due to the air ventilating location. In case of air cleaners, averaged noise levels of top and rear positions were 49.9 and 48.2 dB(A), respectively, whereas averaged noise level of other positions was all 45.2 dB(A). In case of humidifiers, averaged noise level of top position was 44.1 dB(A) whereas averaged noise levels of other positions were 38.7 to 39.1 dB(A). In addition, high frequency content of 1 kHz and 3.15 kHz to 4 kHz for air cleaners and middle frequency content of 500 Hz to 1.6 kHz for humidifiers showed significant contribution to determination of overall noise levels with correlation coefficient of 0.9 and above.

In the realization of obtained image by various visual equipments, the addition of noise to the original image is a common phenomenon and the occurrence of the noise is practically impossible to prevent completely. Thus, the noise detection and reduction is an important foundational purpose. In this study, we detect the orientation about feature of images and estimate the level of noise variance based on the measurement of the relative proportion of the noise. Also, we apply the estimated level of noise to the sigma filter on noise reduction algorithm. And using the orientation about feature of images by weighted value, we propose the effective algorithm to eliminate noise. As a result, the proposed statistical noise reduction methodology provides significantly improved results over the usual sigma filtering and regardless of the estimated level of the noise variance.

This paper deals with the process of estimating the environmental noise generated from the actual flying aircraft using the noise measurement results obtained through the wind tunnel test and verifying it through flight tests. In order to evaluate the environmental noise of an aircraft, noise tests and evaluations are generally conducted according to the procedures prescribed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). In this paper, we introduced environmental noise evaluation method that can be applied to composite both fixed-wing aircraft and multi-copter, and introduced the evaluation method by experiment. This paper introduces the process of simulating the noise test results measured in the wind tunnel test using real flight test results. In addition, in consideration of flight operating conditions and noise measurement methods proposed by the ICAO, the effective perceived noise level (EPNL) was predicted by performing both the wind tunnel test and the aircraft flight test.

This paper presents an enhancement method of document restoration capability which is robust for security, loss, and contamination, It is based on two methods, that is, encryption and DnCNN(DeNoise Convolution Neural Network). In order to implement this encryption method, a mathematical model is applied as a spatial frequency transfer function used in optics of 2D image information. Then a method is proposed with optical interference patterns as encryption using spatial frequency transfer functions and using mathematical variables of spatial frequency transfer functions as ciphers. In addition, by applying the DnCNN method which is bsed on deep learning technique, the restoration capability is enhanced by removing noise. With an experimental evaluation, with 65% information loss, by applying Pre-Training DnCNN Deep Learning, the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) shows 11% or more superior in compared to that of the spatial frequency transfer function only. In addition, it is confirmed that the characteristic of CC(Correlation Coefficient) is enhanced by 16% or more.

Noise reduction is an important issue in auxiliary power unit(APU) of tracking equipments for using military. In this study, we designed and tested reduction methods of structure borne noise and airborne source noise at the auxiliary power unit. From the bench test results, it is found that the effect of noise reduction is about 22 dB(A) if the silencer is redesigned, which is the rescue structure. However, the influence of noise reduction by air is insufficient. In addition, it is confirmed that the effect of noise reduction is excellent when structure borne noise reduction is applied to the vehicle. We expected that the test results of this study are used as basic data to reduce the noise of other tracking equipment developed later.

Rolling noise caused by the contact between the train wheels and rails is the main factor of noise generated by the operation of railway, therefore the features of rail vibration and its correlations with noise radiation should be identified. In this study, noise radiation generated from vibration were predicted by utilizing FE model with boundary element method. Noise radiation generated from vibration were predicted by utilizing FE model with boundary element method, and were compared with the measured noise in order to validate the reliability of the analysis method. In addition, the features of noise radiation according to the rail attenuation were examined in the frequency domain, and the noise radiation has been reduced by approximately 3dB(A) with additional rail damping.
