Wind turbine noise become main environmental problem as wind energy have been installed all around. Noise from large wind turbine give annoyance to listener, moreover it increase loading to whole system by restricting blade tip speed. However accurate noise mechanism of wind turbine is not yet examined. This paper reviewed noise source and analysis theory. Broadband noise if main component of wind turbine noise and airfoil self noise is main noise source. These make acoustic analogy hard to apply for analysis. For this reason, experimental equation is method for wind turbine noise prediction up to now. Spectrum analysis shows that vortex shedding noise exists around $1k{\sim}2k$ Hz. This region is most sensitive frequency range to human. Thus it is necessary to reduce this noise source.

지구온난화 증가에 따른 교토협약으로 전 세계적으로 녹색 신 재생에너지에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 철도, 도로, 지하철 등 터널 내에서 상상을 초월하는 차량의 진동 소음으로 인한 소모에너지를 음력 발전을 통하여 에너지를 하베스팅 하는 녹색사회기반시설 시스템을 구축하기 위해 전자기유도를 활용한 자체적인 소음발전 디바이스를 적용하여 실제 사회기반시설의 종류별 소음특성에 따른 소음발전 디바이스의 적용성 및 효율성을 분석하였다. 실험결과 소음발전 디바이스는 특정 진동수의 소음에서 최대 전압 및 전력을 나타냈으며, 소음원으로부터의 거리 및 소음의 음압에 따라 발생하는 전압 및 전력이 특정한 관계를 가진다는 사실을 확인하였다.

Background: Dual-energy X-ray images (DEI) can distinguish or improve materials of interest in a two-dimensional radiographic image, by combining two images obtained from separate low and high energies. The concepts of DEI performance describing the performance of double-exposure DEI systems in the Fourier domain been previously introduced, however, the performance of double-exposure DEI itself in terms of various parameters, has not been reported. Materials and Methods: To investigate the DEI performance, signal-difference-to-noise ratio, modulation transfer function, noise power spectrum, and noise equivalent quanta were used. Low- and high-energy were 60 and 130 kVp with 0.01-0.09 mGy, respectively. The energy-separation filter material and its thicknesses were tin (Sn) and 0.0-1.0 mm, respectively. Noise-reduction (NR) filtering used the Gaussian-filter NR, median-filter NR, and anti-correlated NR. Results and Discussion: DEI performance was affected by Sn-filter thickness, weighting factor, and dose allocation. All NR filtering successfully reduced noise, when compared with the dual-energy (DE) images without any NR filtering. Conclusion: The results indicated the significance of investigating, and evaluating suitable DEI performance, for DE images in chest radiography applications. Additionally, all the NR filtering methods were effective at reducing noise in the resultant DE images.

본 논문에서는 잡음 에너지 제어를 통한 지각 필터의 성능을 향상시킴으로써 잡음에 의해 열화 된 오디오 신호의 음질을 개선하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 방식에서는 묵음 구간에서 획득한 잡음 에너지를 사용하여 필터를 구성하여 사용하지만, 신호 구간마다 달라지는 신호의 세기 및 잡음의 환경 정도에 많은 영향을 받아 잡음의 에너지가 급격하게 변화한다면 음질의 개선률이 감소함을 알 수 있다. 그러나 제안하는 방식에서는 묵음 구간에서 추정한 잡음의 에너지 제어를 통해 초기 추정 잡음보다 가까운 추정 잡음을 얻음으로써 잡음 에너지가 급격하게 변화하여도 음질 개선률에는 변화가 적음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 저 대역에 영향을 미치는 잡음의 경우에도 다른 방법들과는 달리 음질의 개선이 뚜렷하였다. 기존 방식과의 비교를 위해 다양한 신호 대 잡음 비 (signal-to-noise ratio, SNR)에서 열화 된 오디오 신호를 입력으로 사용하였다. 입력 SNR이 5dB, l0dE, 15dB와 20dB의 각각의 경우에 대하여 SSNR (Segmental SNR)과 잡음 대 마스킹 비 (Noise-to-mask ratio, NMR), 음질 테스트를 수행한 결과, 청감 테스트 (Mean Opinion Score, MOS Test)결과의 향상과 음질의 개선을 확인할 수 있었다.

For the analysis of radiating noise problems in medium-to-high frequency ranges, the Energy Flow Boundary Element Method (EFBEM) was developed. EFBEM is the analysis technique that applies the Boundary Element Method (BEM) to Energy Flow Analysis (EFA). The fundamental solutions representing spherical wave property for radiating noise problems in open field and considering the free surface effect in underwater are developed. Also the directivity factor is developed to express wave's directivity patterns in medium-to-high frequency ranges. Indirect EFBEM by using fundamental solutions and fictitious source was applied to open field and underwater noise problems successfully. Through numerical applications, the acoustic energy density distributions due to vibration of a simple plate model and a sphere model were compared with those of commercial code, and the comparison showed good agreement in the level and pattern of the energy density distributions.

This work presents the influence of noise originating from the tube itself on the detectability and sizing accuracy for laboratory-induced outer diameter axial cracks in nuclear steam generator tubes. The variations of signal amplitude and phase angle of the same cracks were analyzed when increasing the signal-to-noise ratio of the tube itself from 9 to 18. It was experimentally verified that the detectability for small cracks was enhanced by increasing the signal-to-noise ratio. The phase angle also rotated to a value representing the actual position and depth of a crack when increasing the signal-to-noise ratio.

Main sources of increased vibrations and air noise on ship are main and auxiliary engines and ship ducts. The various ways of transfer of vibration energy and air noise in passenger cabin of a vessel require, in general case, of various methods of attenuation. The transfer of vibration energy from engines through a support requires, alongside with shock-absorbers, availability active shock-absorbers. The transfer of vibration energy and hydrodynamic noise on ship ducts requires availability, alongside with flexible muffler, active mufflers. The availability of air noise from working equipment can require, along with absorbent covers, of space systems of active noise control. In the given article it is spoken about the unified approach to formation of the block-diagram of active noise and vibration control. The complex approach permits to receive additional efficiency in reduction of noise in passenger cabin of vessels.

에너지 검파 형태의 스펙트럼 감지는 수신 신호의 에너지를 검파 임계값과 비교하여 1차 사용자(primary user)의 활동 여부를 탐지한다. 그런데 이때 임계값은 달성하고자 하는 오류 경보 확률 및 잡음의 에너지 수준과 밀접한 관련을 갖는다. 따라서 만약 잡음의 에너지 수준이 변한다면 임계값도 조정되어야 한다. 현재까지 발표된 에너지 검파에 대한 연구들은 대부분 잡음의 에너지 수준을 이미 알고 있다는 것을 전제로 한 것이었다. 본 논문에서는 잡음의 백색성을 전제로 하여 임계값을 조절하는 방안을 제안하고, 그에 따른 검파 성능 분석 결과를 제시하고자 한다. 분석 결과, 제안한 방식은 잡음 에너지 수준과는 상관없이 일정한 오류 경보 확률을 달성할 수 있으며, 잡음 에너지를 추정하는데 사용되는 신호의 대역폭과 에너지 측정 기간의 곱이 커질수록 스펙트럼 감지 성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

The active noise control which regards the acoustic power as a target function to be minimized, is analyzed to test its feasibility of which simplifies the measurement system compared with the global acoustic energy based active noise control system. In fact, it is found that the acoustic power based active noise control strategy is equally likely as good as the global acoustic energy based active noise control method if the acoustic field of interest is diffusive or very low model density one. In the intermediate model density field, we also demonstrate that the power based control gives the similar results as the energy based control in terms of global sound energy reduction for the lightly damped enclosure which might be most important system in practical application. From all the theoretical and power based control strategy is dependent on the characteristics of the acoustic field to be controlled; i.e., the model density distribution, the degree of reverberation, and on the strength of modal interaction of the control source with the primary source; i.e., the location of control source.

As the major sources of interior noise of train at running condition are the wheel/rail contact noise, the traction motor's noise and the driving gear's noise and these noise sources are transmitted through the car body, the noises of HVAC and air duct can be ignored. But the interior noise of train at standstill condition is decided by HVAC's noise and noise from the diffuser through the air duct. the interior noise prediction of train at standstill condition should be performed considering the shape of air duct, the air velocity and noise reduction property inside the air duct. But it is hard to estimate the interior noise level by the numerical method. Therefore train maker predict the interior noise level using The commercial noise prediction program. This paper introduce the noise prediction method of the train at standstill condition using the commercial program appling the ray tracing method and statistical energy analysis.
