In this paper, the characteristic response of reflected signals of acoustic reflection microscope, V(z) phenomenon, has been studied and a new type of NDE technique has been presented. 10 Won coin, aluminium, IC component, and kevlar-epoxy samples have been used for the experiment of NDE and the acoustic microscope operating at a center frequency of 3 MHz has been used in the focused or defocused mode of operation. In experiment, it has been shown that the acoustic microscope has the resolution of $500\mu m$ and the defects present on the surface and near surface of samples have been detected by acoustic transducer and imaged on a monitor, and the variation of the contrast of image for samples has been in good agreement with V(z) phenomenon.

This study analyze of reflection wave to Acoustic stimulation on acupoints and contrast parts for objectification of the meridian substance. In order to verify meridian pathway and channel theory of bio-energy in body. It was analyzed response characteristic of reflection waves after acoustic stimulation by sound wave of 5 specific tones. The response characteristics of reflection are measured by the average current magnitude of meridian. The current variation ratio are Live Meridian(gung) 33.2%, Heart Meridian(sang) 30.7%, Kidney Meridian (gak) 33.1%, Spleen Meridian(chi) 33.9%, Lung Meridian (wo) 30.7% compare with contrast parts (non-acupoint and meridian). Therefore meridian is distinguished to non-meridian and 5 vital meridians have relationship with sound wave of 5 specific tones.

To overcome the mid frequency limitation of geometrical acoustic techniques, the phased geometrical method was suggested by introducing the phase information into the sound propagation from the source. By virtue of phase information, the phased tracing method has a definite benefit in taking the interference phenomenon at mid frequencies into account. Still, this analysis technique has suffered from difficulties in dealing with low frequency phenomena, so called, wave nature of sound. At low frequencies, diffraction at corners, edges, and obstacles can cause errors in simulating the transfer function and the impulse response. Due to the use of real valued absorption coefficient, simulated results have shown a discrepancy with measured data. Thus, incorrect phase of the reflection characteristic of a wall should be corrected. In this work, the uniform theory of diffraction was integrated into the phased beam tracing method (PBTM) and the result was compared to the ordinary PBTM. By changing the phase of the reflection coefficient, effects of phase information were investigated. Incorporating such error compensation methods, the acoustic prediction by PBTM can be further extended to low frequency range with improved accuracy in the room acoustic field.

Friction Welds are formed by the mechanisms of diffusion as well as mechanical inter-locking. The severe plastic flow at the interface by the forge action of the process brings the subsurface so close together that detection of any unbounded area becomes very difficult. No reliable method is available so fat to determine the weld quality nondestructively. The paper presents an attempt to determine weld strength quantitatively using the ultrasonic pulseecho method. The new approach calculates the coefficient of reflection based on measured amplitudes of the echoes. This coefficient provides a single quantitative measurement which involves both acoustic energy reflected at the welded interface as well as transmitted across the interface. As a result, it was known that the quantitative relationship between the coefficient and the weld strength (torsional strength) could be drawn.

This paper describes the modeling and experimental results for Bulk Acoustic Wave(BAW) Resonator using PolyVinyliDene Fluoride(PVDF). We measured the input reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) of resonators using vector network analyzer and experimental results were measured fundamental resonance at 2.3 GHz with a return loss of -29 dB. Because of fabricated resonator without etching process, we can confirm a possibility of resonator application as using a PVDF.

To investigate the heavy-weight impact noise of apartment houses, numerical analysis was performed. The analysis acoustic pressure consider acoustic mode by finite element method. The variables considered effecting on the acoustic pressure are the Acoustic mode, acoustic damping, and the impulse load. The heavy-weight impact noise is a changeable value in the room. Since the most part of the frequency component of heavy-weight impact noise has low frequency. The noise in low frequency is related to the vibration of structure, the reflection of acoustic wave caused by wall and the standing wave called by acoustic mode. The prediction by the numerical analysis was verified with test result of the heavy weight-impact noise at apartment houses.

Ship radiated noise is an infortant parameter which dtermines Anti Submarine Warfare(ASW) countermeansure or passive Sonar detection and classification performance. Its measurement should be performed under controlled ocean acoustic environment. In data reduction of the measured data from hydrophone array, theeffect fo ambient noise, surface reflection and bottom reflection etc. should be compensated to obtain the source level of the ship radiated noise. This study describes the measurement hydrophone array design criteria based on the analysis of transimission anomaly due to the surface reflection.

For the recently constructing building, diverse forms of attempt are being applied with the environmental-friendly design and reflection of the design factor by environment simulation. Especially, in case of Multi-Purpose Hall, in view of its use-purpose and because of the characteristics that should be utilized as the multipurpose uses by well-mingled together with the lecture-wise factor and musical factor, now it could be said that the sufficient examination and planning with regard to the acoustic factor are essential. On such viewpoint, as the object of practically planning multipurpose auditorium, this Study has intended to design such auditorium equipped with the optimal architectural acoustic factor, for the acoustic condition using Acoustic Simulation Technique at the planning stage.

Migration image can be distorted due to reflected waves in the source and receiver wavefields when discontinuities of input velocity model exist in seismic imaging. To remove reflected waves coming from layer interfaces, it is a common practice to smooth the velocity model for migration. If the velocity model is smoothed, however, the subsurface image can be distorted because the velocity changes around interfaces. In this paper, we attempt to minimize the distortion by reducing reflection energy in the source and receiver wavefields through acoustic impedance homogenization. To make acoustic impedance constant, we define fake density model and use it for migration. When the acoustic impedance is constant over all layers, the reflection coefficient at normal incidence becomes zero and the minimized reflection energy results in the improvement of migration result. To verify our algorithm, we implement the reverse-time migration using cell-based finite-difference method. Through numerical examples, we can note that the migration image is improved at the layer interfaces with high velocity contrast, and it shows the marked improvement particularly in the shallow part.

Acoustic target strength (TS) is one of the most considerable design elements for survival capacities of the submarine. It needs to reduce acoustic TS that submarines are getting larger and larger, Alberich anechoic coatings are widely used as the representative method. In this paper, the finite element method (FEM) is used to analyze the reflection and transmission coefficients of Alberich anechoic coatings, which have periodic unit cells. The FEM results are compared with experimental results in the literature. Moreover, acoustic TS for the submarine is analyzed by using that result. Finally, it is shown that acoustic TS (Case 1: 10dB, Case 2: 6dB) are reduced due to the use of Alberich anechoic coatings.
