This paper focuses on the numerical prediction of airflow-induced sound in DVD drives. As a first step, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is conducted to evaluate flow field characteristics due to the high-speed disk rotation, and to support the acoustic analysis. Acoustic analogy based on Ffowcs Wi1liams-Hawkings (FW-H) equation is adopted to predict aeroacoustic noise patterns. The integral solution for quadrupole volume source is included to identify the turbulence noise generated inside the DVD tray. The strength of sound pressure revel with respect to rotating speed is discussed to meet upfront demand on the high fidelity product development. The present study also focuses on the noise directivity and examines how much the sound noise is sensitive to change in rotating speed. Near-field noise is strongly affected by the flow field characteristic, which is caused by the complex shape of the tray. For a mid-field, the quadrupole noise play as a counterpart of thickness noise or loading noise, so it generates different sound noise Patterns compared with those in the near field.

An investigation was carried out to determine the effect of the thickness of the air-gap installed between the roof metal sheet and the headliner on booming noise in passenger cars. In addition, a way of offering quieter driving condition to drivers and passengers was studied. It was found that a very thin air-gap corresponding to approximately 3/100 of the height of the passenger compartment causes noticeable change in the coupled resonance frequencies and acoustic responses. Furthermore, a guideline is proposed for determining an optimal air-gap thickness during design stage of the air-gap beneath the roof metal sheet for reducing booming noise.

자동차용 경음기는 운전자 간의 의사소통 수단이자 보행자에게 사전에 경각심을 불러일으키는 부품으로서 안전상 중요한 역할을 한다. 유한 요소 방법과 전기 회로 모델을 활용한 자동차용 경음기의 모델링 연구와 혼의 음향학적 특성을 분석한 연구들이 수행되었으나, 트럼펫 혼의 작동 주파수 설계 방법에 대한 연구는 미비하다. 본 논문에서는 트럼펫 혼의 진동부가 결정되었을 때, 쉘의 음향 리액턴스에 따른 작동 주파수를 예측하는 설계 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 음향부에서는 지수 혼과 도파관이 결합된 혼에 대해 다루었고, 임피던스 튜브 실험을 통해 도파관의 입구 음향 리액턴스는 해석 결과와 유사함을 확인했다. COMSOL Multiphysics 유한 요소 수치 해석 모델을 이용하여 자동차용 경음기의 공진 주파수를 예측했고, 음압 실험을 통해 설계된 혼의 작동 주파수를 측정하여 설계 방법을 검증했다. 음압 실험은 홀더를 제외하고 DC 전압을 12 [V] 인가하여 반무향실 환경에서 측정한 결과, 설계 작동 주파수와 비교하여 수 [Hz] 내에서 정확하게 공진이 발생했다. 본 논문에서는 혼의 음향 리액턴스 관점에서 자동차용 트럼펫 혼의 설계 방법을 살펴보았고, 혼을 포함한 시스템을 설계할 때 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 논문에서는 배경잡음과 반향이 존재하는 차량환경에서 음성인식 성능을 향상시키기 위해 상관계수를 이용한 동시통화 검출 알고리즘을 적용한 음향 반향제거기와 barge-in 기능을 갖는 음성 인터페이스를 구현하였다. 상관계수를 이용한 동시통화 검출 알고리즘은 임계치 설정 및 배경잡음의 영향 등으로 인해 검출 오류가 발생한다. 이를 보완하기 위해 동시통화 검출 조건으로 매 샘플마다 입력신호에서 추정한 배경잡음 및 반향신호의 평균 전력을 이용하여 동시통화 검출 오류를 줄였으며, 시변의 임계치를 적용한 후처리 단을 통해 시변의 잔여 잡음 성분을 제거하였다. 또한 안내음성 중에 음성입력이 가능하도록 barge-in 기능을 적용한 음성 인터페이스 시스템을 구현하였다. 제안한 음성 인터페이스 시스템은 동시통화 검출 오류와 이로 인해 발생되는 문제점을 효율적으로 해결할 수 있음을 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.

The ride quality has become a key component of not only design but car selling as the technology developed and the requirement of passengers grew up. Thus car industry invests lots of time and cost for the higher ride quality. The evaluation of the ride quality mainly is expressed by subjective element that drivers felt. In this paper, instead of the original transfer path analysis method, relatively new methods such as OPAX(Operational path analysis with eXogeneous inputs) and OTPA(operational transfer path analysis) are used for analyzing the main hindrance element of ride quality. With those new method, contribution rate of all paths that the vibration propagate along analyzed after driving test on the roads having different characteristic. The comprehensive hindrance elements of ride quality are deduced from the contribution rate and the improve experiment by changing one of hindrance elements for higher ride quality.

Noise-induced hearing loss(NIHL) was the highest rate (43.5%~58.5% from 1996 to 1998) of positive findings through specific medical program in Korea. There were much more NIHL at workers of automobile manufacturing factories than other manufacturing factories. The specific aim of the present study was to determine the noise exposure of automobile press lines, according to their job titles, press line types(auto, semiauto), dosimeter parameters setting. There were a total 11 press lines sampled at a automobile manufacturing company. Among those press lines, 10 press lines were autolines with acoustic enclosure, one semiauto press line was no aucostic enclosure Noise exposure data were sampled for an work shift using noise dosimeter, which recorded both time-weighted average(TWA) and 1-min average. The mean OSHA TWA(Korea TWA with threshold 90) was $80.7dB(A){\pm}4.7dB(A)$ for leader, $82.8dB(A{\pm}4.5dB(A)$ for pallette man, $76.7dB(A){\pm}4.3dB(A)$ for press operators, $76.6dB(A){\pm}5.6dB(A)$ for crane operators, $77.1dB(A){\pm}2.8dB(A)$ for forklift drivers, whereas the mean NIOSH TWA was $88.9dB(A){\pm}1.7dB(A)$ for leader, $89.6dB(A){\pm}2.1dB(A)$ for pallette man, $86.7dB(A){\pm}1.8dB(A)$ for press operators, $88.5dB(A){\pm}2.0dB(A)$ for crane operators, $87.7dB(A){\pm}1.0dB(A)$ for forklift drivers. While L10 for NIOSH TWA samples was 84.8 dB(A) ~ 87.3 dB(A), L10 for OSHA TWA samples was 69.5 dB(A) ~ 77.4 dB(A). L10 means that the TWA for 90% of the samples exceeded L10. Among OSHA TWA(Korea TWA with threshold 90) samples for pallette man, 7.7 % exceeded 90 dB(A), the OSHA permissible exposure level, but OSHA TWA samples for the other job titles didn't. Among NIOSH TWA samples, the samples over 85 dB(A), the NIOSH recommended exposure limit, was 100% (leaders), 83.3 %(operators), 97.4%(palletteman), 100%(forklift drivers), 91.7 %(crane operator). The results of One-way random effects analysis of variance models shows that the difference between job titles was significant by OSHA TWA(p<0.05), but not significant by NIOSH TWA(p>0.05). NIOSH TWA samples were significantly higher than OSHA TWA samples(P<0.05). Regression analysis was used to obtain relationships between OSHA TWA samples and NIOSH TWA samples. In this case the coefficient of determination = 0.90, which shows the high degree association between two methods. Regression equation, NIOSH TWA = 0.552 * OSHA TWA + 42.13 dB(A), shows that if OSHA TWA is known, NIOSH TWA can be predicted by the equation. The mean TWA difference between threshold 80 dBA and 90 dBA was significant(p<0.01). While the TWA noise exposures were 7.7% above the Korea(OSHA) PEL, they were more than 83.3% over NIOSH REL. Automobile workers were exposed to noise level that could be potentially damaging to their hearing. It found that there is approximately 25% excess risk of hearing loss even if a worker is protected to the PEL in according to NIOSH study.
