The present study aims to investigate the influence of the water to binder ratio of finishing mortar on the floor impact sound of apartments. For this, same resilient materials Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) with constant dynamic stiffness and different mortar layers with 52 %, 66 % and 72 % water to binder ratio respectively were used to build floating floor structures on which floor impact sounds were measured in standard testing facilities. As a result, it was found that light-weight floor impact sound was transmitted well when the water to binder ratio was 52% due to the high density. In case of heavy-weight floor impact sounds, since water to binder ratio of finishing mortar becomes higher as the weight of upper layer of resilient material lighter, it was shown that the natural frequency of floating floor structure moves to 63 Hz bandwidth which eventually cause a higher sound pressure level of floor impact sound. Thus, effect of water to binder ratio of mortar on the heavy-weight floor impact sounds was investigated.

It is necessary to express and evaluate annoyances, caused by noises, as a comparable quantity for establishing an efficient, economic and user-oriented noise control plan. In particular, cares should be taken for impact noises, since their dynamic properties are different from those of steady-state noises. A series of preliminary experiments were carried out to quantify the annoyances caused by floor impact noises. Results suggests that the characteristics of an impact source was more important factor than the properties of a floor structure for determining loudness and noisiness of subjects. Also, the heavy impact source was found to be felt louder and noisier by 5-6dB than the light impact source.

In order to investigate the possibility of EPDM micro cellular pad (MCP) as an impact sound insulation product, we studied static/dynamic properties and vibration transfer characteristics of EPDM MCP depending on shape, thickness, degrees of foaming by using material test system (MTS) and lab scale mock-up test apparatus. Static/dynamic rigidity is increased when shape is simple. thickness and degrees of foaming low. We could see that dynamic stiffness is proportional to the transmissibility of EPDM MCP. When dynamic stiffness is increased, characteristic peak at transmissibility curve moves high frequency range or snows increase of maximum value of transmissibility. For lab scale mock-up test and finite element method, EPDM MCP shows low vibration velocity and superior mode shape to just concrete plus slab structure. We could confirm that possibility of EPDM MCP as a impact sound insulation product is high.

Laminated composite plates have shown their superiority over metals in applications requiring high specific strength, high specific modulus, and so on. Therefore, they have used in various industry. However, they have poor resistance to impact compared to typical metal materials. To resolve this problem by many researchers for a variety of studies have been attempted. This study investigates characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress. Using finite element program which involved the indentation law, we investigate characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress.

극초음속 유동장의 정확한 해석을 위해 AUSMPW+ 수치기법과 충격파 포착시 생기는 수치오차를 제거하기 위해 충격파 정렬 기법(Shock-Aligned Grid Technique)을 개발하였다. AUSMPW+ 수치기법은 자체 수치점성이 적은 수치기법으로 점성 경계층 계산시 정확한 계산결과를 보여주며 기존의 AUSM 계열이 가지는 문제점인 물성치의 진동 현상을 제거한 수치기법이다. 원통형과 무딘 물체 주위의 극초음속 유동장 해석을 통해 공력이 진동현상 없이 정확하게 계산됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 충격파 정렬 기법의 특성을 파악하기 위해 충격파 반사문제와 충격파-충격파 상호작용 문제를 해석하여 수치오차 없이 충격파를 포착할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 화학적 평형 비평형 유동 영역까지 충격파 정렬 격자 기법을 확장하였다.

해수 임펠러(impeller) 재료로 사용되고 있는 스테인리스강을 이용하여 케비테이션 발생 시 고체입자 충격에 의한 충격하중 및 침식손상을 조사하였다. 충격하중은 압전센서를 이용하여 측정되었으며, 고체입자충격의 경우 기포붕괴에 비해 전체적으로 높은 충격하중을 가한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 충격하중과 침식손상과의 관계를 고찰하기 위해 침식표면에 형성된 침식핏(pit)을 측정하였으며, 고체입자충격 및 기포붕괴 조건에서의 임계충격하중을 구하였다.

In order to characterize the outstanding performance of three-dimensional (3D) composites, the low velocity impact test has been carried out. 3D fiber structures have been achieved by using the automated tape placement (ATP) process and a stitching method. Materials for the ATP and the stitching process were carbon/epoxy prepreg tapes and Kevlar fibers, respectively. Two-dimensional composites with the same stacking sequence as 3D counterparts have also been fabricated for the comparison of damage tolerance. For the assessment of damage after the impact loading, specimens were subjected to C-Scan nondestructive inspection. Compression after impact (CAI) tests were conducted to evaluate residual compressive strength. The damage area of 3D composites was greatly reduced $(30-40\%)$ compared with that of 2D composites. Although the CAI strength did not show drastic improvement for 3D composites, the ratio of retained strength was $5-10\%$ higher than 2D samples. The effect of stitching on the impact performance was negligible above the energy level of 35 Joules.

In Japan, bang machine has been considered to have problems about not only the impact force and frequency response which are different from the real impact sources such as children's jumping and running, but also damage in the wooden structure housing. Therefore, a new impactor for lower impact force to prevent demage in wooden structure housing was developed. The impact ball was adopted as the second standard impact source in JIS A 1418-2 and ISO 140-11. In the present study, floor impact sounds generated by impact ball with drop heights in four floors of mock-up building of Building Research Institute (BRI) similar to typical Japanese wooden structure housing were investigated and also compared to jumping sound. The results show that Impact ball sound dropped at 10 cm to 30 cm was most similar to jumping sound. And The impact sound levels at 250 and 500 Hz were more sensitive to drop height than other lower frequencies. The error that may occur from the difference of height of 10 cm up and down based on the standard drop height caused by the impact ball operated by human hands was approx. 1 dB or less only in its value of characteristic, but it must be carefully taken into Impact ball in the Korea Standard.

The effectiveness of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripter(ESWL) for the therapy of calculus has been generally known in the field of urology. However, there are very little paper investigated about physical characteristics of sounds radiated when phantom is shotting with shock waves. Therefore, this paper, firstly, investigates the sounds radiated when impact is applied to the phantom with a single shot by an impact hammer and a clinical ESWL Next, it determines the variance of the sounds radiated during the breaking process using a piece of chalk as a phantom of a calculus. These results will be applied to the examination of the existence of the calculus at the focus and the monitoring the breaking process.

In this paper, a system of falling weight impact tester was built up to evaluate the impact energy absorbing characteristics and impact strength of CFRP laminate plates in consideration of stress wave propagation theory. Delamination area of impacted specimens for the different ply orientation was measured with ultrasonic C-scanner to find correlation between impact energy and delamination area. Absorbed energy of quasi-isotropic specimen having four interfaces was higher than that of orthotropic laminates with two interfaces. The more interfaces, the more absorbed energy. Hybrid specimen containing GFRP layer was higher than that of normal specimens.
