본 연구에서는 무반향 수조의 내벽 흡음 물질로 사용되는 무반향 타일을 쐐기형으로 제작하여 쐐기의 꼭지 각 변화에 따른 음향학적인 특성을 고찰하였다. 실험에서 사용된 쐐기형 무반향 타일의 크기는 $40{\cal}cm{\times}38.5{\cal}cm$ 이며, 타일을 구성하는 각 쐐기의 길이는 $2.75{\cal}cm$로 고정하고 각각 쐐기의 꼭지각이 $30^\circ$ 와 $60^\circ$ 인 타일을 제작하였다. 수중에서 쐐기가 없는 무반향 시료와 쐐기형 무반향 타일에 음파를 수직 입사하여 반사계수를 측정하였으며, 쐐기의 유무와 무반향 타일을 구성하는 쐐기의 꼭지각 변화에 따른 반사 및 흡음 특성을 고찰하였다. 음향특성 임피던스가 $2.14\times10^6$ Pa$\cdot$s/m인 쐐기형 무반향 타일을 25kHz 에서 100kHz의 주파수 영역의 음파를 입사했을 애 쐐기의 꼭지각이 $30^\circ$ 일 때 $60^\circ$보다 압력반사계수가 작고, 반사손실이 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 그 결과로써 본 실험에서 사용된 $30^\circ$의 쐐기 꼭지각을 갖는 무반향 타일이 내벽 흡음 물질로서 성능이 더 좋다는 것을 확인하였다.

Acoustic characteristics of the wedge-shaped anechoic tiles, used as absorbing lining materials for an anechoic water tank, were investigated for different wedge-apex angles. The anechoic tile base has the dimensions of 400mm x 385mm x 15.5mm. In order to investigate anechoic effect, the wedge-apex angles 30° and 60° were selected by using a ray-tracing method. The reflection loss of the anechoic tiles with and without wedges were experimentally studied at normal incident sound waves in water. In this experiment, the reflection loss of wedge-shaped anechoic tiles with the optimum wedge-apex angle 30° is larger than one with the angle 60° and one without wedges. The experimental results show that the wedge-shaped anechoic tiles with the wedge-apex angle 30°, optimized by using ray-tracing method, turn out better absorbing lining materials of an anechoic water tank.

쐐기각이 다른 4종류의 쐐기형 흡음타일을 설계,제작하고 각각의 흡음타일에 대한 음파 반사계수를 측정하였다. 흡음타일의 정면에서 측정한 반사계수는 실험한 4개의 타일중 쐐기의 꼭지각이 30$^{\circ}$일 때 최소값을 갖고 120$^{\circ}$ 일 때 최대값을 가졌다. 쐐기형 흡음타일의 꼭지각이 클수록 그 반사계수가 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 쐐기의 꼭지각이 같은 종류의 타일헤서는 본 실험에 사용한 10kHz~30kHz 입사음파의 주파수와 측정한 반사계수는 무관함을 보였다. 그리고 쐐기형 흡음타일 후면에서 측정한 반사계수는 타입에 관계없이 일정하게 나타났다.

Uniformity in transducer performance is a must-have to ensure the reliable acoustic performance of a tile projector, used for active echo reduction. However, practical limitations imposed by variations in material properties and fabrication errors lead to performance variations among unit transducers, which could degrade the radiation characteristics (transmitting voltage response and directivity) of the tile projector and ultimately the echo reduction performance. In this paper we present a method to minimize these adverse effects via an appropriate placement of unit transducers within the tile projector. To this end, we perform a series of coupled acoustic-piezoelectric simulations, assuming a group of 36 unit transducers having 6 dB variations in transmitting voltage response, to analyze and compare the radiation characteristics of tile projectors under different transducer placement schemes.

With the advent of submarine detection technology using low-frequency active sonar there is a call for a new submarine stealth device that can replace the existing passive anechoic tiles. Proposed in this study is a low-frequency echo reduction technique based on active impedance matching, which employs a tile projector designed to cover a wide area such as the surface of a ship. To judge the feasibility of the active impedance matching technique finite-element simulations of low-frequency echo reduction are performed. Based on the analysis, a tile projector is designed, fabricated, and tested in an acoustic tank for its low-frequency echo reduction performance.

Four different wedge angle absorptive tiles were designed and made, and the magnitudes of the reflected acoustic fields by the wedge shaped underwater sound absorptive tiles were measured. The minimum magnitude was found at the angle of 30$^{\circ}$ and the maximum of it was found at the wedge angle of 120$^{\circ}$ from measured the reflected acoustic fields at the front sides of the tiles. The fact that as wedge angle of the absorptive tile increases, the reflection coefficient is increasing is verified. The measured reflected acoustic fields were not dependent on the frequency in the range of 10kHz~30kHz used in this experiment for the same wedge angle tile. The measured reflected acoustic fields at the back sides of the tiles show that they are independent from both type of the absorptive tiles and the frequencies used in the experiments. The measured values and the computed values by the numerical model for the reflected acoustic fields of the wedge shaped absorptive tiles are fairly well comparable with one another.

세계 각국의 잠수함은 물속에서 더욱 깊게, 빠르게, 그리고 보이지도, 들리지도 않고 지나간 흔적도 남기지 않도록 발전되어 가고 있어 그 탐지가 점차 곤란해지고 있다. 1987년도 미.영 합동 대잠훈련에서 미 해군은 음향차단 타일을 붙인 영국 잠수함 Superb 109호를 근거리에서 탐지못한 것을 염려한 나머지 서둘러 Los Angels급의 1척인 San Juan호에 타일장착을 결정하였다

In this paper, we develop real-time monitoring system to detect third-party damage on natural gas pipeline by using sound propagation model. Since many third-party incidents cause damage that does not lead to immediate rupture but can grow with time, the developed real-time monitoring system can execute a significant role in reducing many third-party damage incidents. The developed system is composed of three steps as follows: i) DSP based system, ii) wireless communication system, iii) the calculation and monitoring software to detect the position of third-party damage using the propagation speed of acoustic wave. Furthermore, the developed system was set at practical offshore pipeline between two islands in Korea and it has been operating in real time.

다양한 홀에서 물리적으로 운동하는 사운드를 미리 예측한다는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 자유롭게 운동하는 사운드를 예측/분석할 수 있는 과학적인 소프트웨어는 사운드 엔지니어에게 많은 도움을 준다. 소리의 물리적 운동 방향(Sound Directivity), 거리에 따른 타임 딜레이(Time Delay), 스피커의 각도와 적정한 SPL(Sound Pressure Level)을 과학적인 근거에 의해서 정확한 값을 산출하여 음향 장비 설치이전에 미리 예측하여 음향 디자인을 완성한다면 시간과 비용을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있다. 본 연구은 현재 개발 과정에 있거나 혹은 사용되어지고 있는 소리 예측 프로그램을 분석하여 보다 진보된 소리예측 프로그램을 개발하고자 함이다.

In this paper an intonation conversion method is presented which provides the basic study on converting the original speech into the artificially intoned one. This method employs the other speaker's excitation signals as intonation information and the original vocal tract spectra, which are warped with the other speaker's ones by using DTW. as vocal features, and intonation converted speech signals are synthesized through short-time inverse Fourier transform(STIFT) of their product. To evaluate the intonation converted speech by this method, we collect Korean single vowels and sentences spoken by 30 males and compare fundamental frequency contours spectrograms, distortion measures and MOS test between the original speech and the converted one. The result shows that this method can convert and speech into the intoned one of the other speaker's.
