Since most of main noise sources of the railroad vehicle are transmitted to the passenger's ear through the vibration of the panel, the insulation performance of the panels should be high enough to protect the passengers from the noisy environment. Specifically, the composite materials which are generally used for reducing the weight of the vehicle compartment have the low insulation performance, noise control actions should be taken appropriately by considering the insulation performance of the panels. In this study, the insulation performances of the inner/outer panels were evaluated and the contribution of the aluminum door was estimated compared to the composite panels. The results can furnish an indepth understanding of the insulation characteristics of the panel of railroad vehicle.

It is known that the road noise on the rear seat of a hatchback type car is worse than that of a sedan type car because of the weakness on sealing structure. Therefore, a sound sealing system and sufficient absorption/insulation performance are required. In the case of a compact segment car, however, the application of the sufficient absorption and insulation materials is limited, because of the restriction on the production cost and weight of the car. In this study, we estimate the noise transmission path on the vehicle's body structure from tires and ground using the PBNR (Power Based Noise Reduction) method which is useful in quantitative measurement. Based on these results, we suggest an alternative absorption/insulation method for the better performance of rear seat road noise reduction in a compact hatchback car.

Enclosure is widely used for the sound insulation in a ship. But it is very difficult to estimate the sound insertion loss for the enclosure because the sound field between the enclosure and the machine is so complex. Therefore, it is usually estimated experimentally. In this research, sound insertion loss of the enclosure is estimated by theory assuming that the sound field in the enclosure is reverberation field. And the results from the theory are compared to those from the experiment.

The purpose of this study is to reconsider the rating method for the floor impact sound insulation performance in current criterion. Although there are some arguments about proper standard heavy impact source with reproducibility of actual impact source in residence building, bang machine is adopted as the only standard heavy impact source in domestic criterion. To inspect the rating methods of evaluation criteria, this study conducted vibration test for both of standard heavy impact sources and actual impact sources. Using the test results, the floor impact sound insulation performance levels were assessed by each of several criteria. In addition, low frequency noise beyond current criteria was evaluated. Consequently, the floor impact sound levels have different performance levels according to adopted criteria, and measured floor impact sounds are bound to annoy the neighbors in the low frequency range. Current criteria does not consider the spectrum characteristics of floor impact sound according to impact sources and low frequency noise. This may cause the difference between the floor impact sound insulation performance level and human perception. Thus current criterion needs to be complemented to reflect the spectrum characteristics of floor impact sound levels according to impact sources and sound pressure levels in low frequency range.

In the actual sound environmental systems, it seems to be essentially difficult to exactly evaluate a whole probability distribution form of its response fluctuation, owing to various types of natural, social and human factors. Up to now, we very often reported two kinds of unified probability density expressions in the standard expansion from of Hermite and Laguerre type orthonormal series to generally evaluate non-Gaussian, non-linear correlation and/or non-stationary properties of the fluctuation phenomenon. However, in the real sound environment, there still remain many actual problems on the necessity of improving the above two standard type probability expressions for practical use. In this paper, first, a central point is focused on how to find a new probabilistic theory of practically evaluating the variety and complexity of the actual random fluctuations, especially through introducing some equivalence transformation toward two standard probability density expressions mentioned above in the expansion from of Hermite and Laguerre type orthonormal series. Then, the effectiveness of the proposed theory has been confirmed experimentally too by applying it to the actual problems on the response probability evaluation of various sound insulation systems in an acoustic room.

In the case of the front door of the apartment, which functions as an entrance, the study about noise has been less active than corridor type plane in the past, since stair room type plane was generalized. Hence, this study shows the survey about residents' thoughts of noise transmission through the front door, and after researching sound insulation of the present apartments, we figured out what the problem is. Moreover, we did an efficiency test as developing the front door, which increases sound insulation. As a result, it turned out that residents think that the noise transmission through the front door is as serious as floor impact noise, and also, the efficiency of the front door is as poor as STC 22-30. Therefore, in the developed front door, we should improve the efficiency to the level of STCSS. It will be a good way preparing for a demand of residents.
