On the basis of theoretical studies on the effect of the cylinders attached to semi-infinite screens, the tangential sound power-transport parallel to the surface of the attached cylinder is minimized by means of a secondary sound field, which is generated from a part of the attached cylinder. The numerical study shows the possibility of deflecting the incident sound by minimizing the acoustic surface impedance of the upper sections. The acoustical shadow region was more pronounced in both near- and far-field compared to the passive case with rigid surface, i.e. without active control. For a relatively wide frequency range it was possible to enhance shielding effects only with few secondary sources and error microphones. In this paper effects of some control parameters on the actively controlled sound field near the top edge of noise barriers are studied. Results of numerical study and model measurements are shown and discussed.

Passive sonars employ DEMON (Detection of Envelope Modulation on Noise) processing to extract propeller information from the radiated noise of underwater targets. Conventional DEMON processing improves SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) characteristic by Welch method. The conventional Welch method overlaps several different time domain DEMON outputs to reduce the variance. However, the conventional methods have high computational complexity to get high SNR with correlated acoustic signals. In this paper, we propose new DEMON processing method that divides acoustic signal into several frequency bands before DEMON processing and averages each DEMON outputs. Therefore, the proposed method gathers independent acoustic signal faster than conventional method with low computational complexity. We prove the performance of the proposed method with mathematical analysis and computer simulations.

Recently, using the electronic devices was increased with semiconductor developments. So, the EMI(Electromagnetic interference) problem become to important issue for coexistence with each electronic devices. The EMI is caused by switching operation from the power switches as the FET and the transistor in power conversion devices. In this paper, the hybrid EMI filter that composed with active components and passive components was described. The EMI filter is applied to the 160 watts LED driver experimentally verify the performance. The hybrid EMI filter is compared with non-filter, only passive filter and only active filter. The proposed EMI filter attenuated CM noise more than traditional passive filter.

In this study, a direct position tracking method for non-circular (NC) signals using distributed passive arrays is proposed. First, we calculate the initial positions of sources using a direct position determination (DPD) approach; next, we transform the tracking into a compensation problem. The offsets of the adjacent time positions are calculated using a first-order Taylor expansion. The fusion calculation of the noise subspace is performed according to the NC characteristics. Because the proposed method uses the signal information from the previous iteration, it can realize automatic data associations. Compared with traditional DPD and two-step localization methods, our novel process has lower computational complexity and provides higher accuracy. Moreover, its performance is better than that of the traditional tracking methods. Numerous simulation results support the superiority of our proposed method.

Conventional EMI filters have tried to use an active EMI filter as a series by the series connection of two EMI filters for CM and DM noise. However, the proposed filter is formed into one circuit by using the active EMI filter which is able to filter CM and DM noise components together. As a result, the active EMI filter showed the outstanding quality in mass and volume under 50% and electric characteristics have been compared to the passive EMI filter in approximately 150kHz~10MHz. Furthermore, the proposed circuit has simple circuit components by comparing with the series EMI filters, and electrical characteristics are similar. The noise have been attenuated to maximum 20dBuV.

With the improvement of standard of living, requirement for comfortable and quiet environment has been increased and, therefore, there has been a many researches for active noise reduction to overcome the limit of passive control method. In this study, active noise control is performed in a duct system using intelligent control technique which needs not decide the coefficients of high order filter and the mathematical modeling of a system. Back propagation algorithm is applied as an intelligent control technique and control system is organized to exclude the error microphone and high speed operational device which are indispensable for conventional active noise control techniques. Furthermore, learning is performed by organizing acoustic feedback model, and the effect of the proposed control technique is verified via computer simulation and experiment of active noise control in a duct system.

This paper presents the analysis and design of an active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter (AEF) for the common-mode (CM) noise reduction of switching power converters. The features of the several types of AEFs are discussed and compared in terms of implementation. The feed-forward AEF with a voltage-sensing and voltage-cancellation (VSVC) structure is implemented for an LLC resonant converter to replace a multiple-stage passive EMI filter and thereby reduce CM noise. The characteristics and performance of the VSVC-type AEF are investigated through theoretical and experimental works.

This paper is concerned with the development of the vibration isolation system using piezoelectric actuators and sensors. The active vibration absorber system consists of 4 pairs of PZT actuators bonded on aluminum plates making s- shaped device. Hence, the active system is directly connected to the passive system. The rubber attached to the end of the beam is connected to the upper base as a structural member. It allows bending thus maximizing the vertical movement generated by the piezoceramic actuators.

The flexural vibration of laminated composite beams with active and passive constrained-layer damping has been investigated to design structure with maximum possible damping capacity. The equations of motion are derived for flexural vibrations of symmetrical, multi-layer laminated beams. The damping ratio and modal damping of the first bending mode are calculated by means of iterative complex eigensolution method. This paper addresses a design strategy of laminated composite under flexural vibrations with active control.

Recently, distributed piezoelectric actuators have drawn attention due to their potential applicability within smart structures. Because they serve not only as active components but also passive components, it is difficult to estimate their characteristics accurately. In this study a finite element method based on layerwise theory has been formulated to analyze the characteristics of the distributed piezoelectric actuators. The present method has the capability to describe more refined strain distribution and more realistic boundary conditions.
