Sound intensity techniques and ODS(Operational Deflection Shape) techniques are applied to identify the acoustic noise source of a hard disk drive and its control system. The sound intensity is used to visualize the noise source locations, and the ODS information to visualize the vibration pattern and to obtain the dynamic characteristics of the noise sources. The measurement systems are customized to accurately measure the sound intensity and ODS distributions of HDD system in space domains as well as frequency domains. The measurement systems for the sound absorption and transmission loss of materials are also used to support the background data for the efficient noise control. Using the visual information of source locations and its dynamic characteristics, the partial noise barrier structure and optimum absorption are designed and its controlled sound power level is proved to be under 3.1 Bel(Idle)/3.3Bel (Seek) which is the lowest level in the disk drive industry.

Recently, a severe noise problem was encountered during a shop test of large scale vertical motor. In order to identify the noise characteristics and propose the countermeasure, a variety of experiments such as sound excitation test and contribution analysis was earned out in addition to ordinary noise and vibration measurements. The results showed that the severe noise level was dominated by an acoustic resonance phenonmenon in the cooler housing and higher sound power of outer fan. Through proper treatments, the noise level could be acceptable.

The purpose of this work is to predict the low frequency aero-acoustic noise generated from the horizontal axis wind turbine, NREL Phase VI for the whole operating conditions of various wind speeds using large eddy simulation and Ffowcs-Williams and Hawkings model provided in the commercial code, FLUENT. Because there is no experimental data about wind turbine noise, we first of all compared aerodynamic performance such as shaft torque and power with experimentally measured value. Performance results show a good agreement with experimental data within about 0.8%. As the wind speed increases, the overall sound pressure level and the sound pressure level by the quadrupole and dipole source show a increasing tendency. Also, sound pressure level is proportional to $r^{-2}$ in the near field and $r^{-1}$ in the far field according to the increase of distance from the center of hub of wind turbine. According to 2 times increase of distance, sound pressure level is reduced by about 6dB.

구조 진동에 의해 발생하는 Relative Sound Power를 계산하는 문제가 최근 에 중요시되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 조화적인 집중하중에 대한 무한 탄성보 에서 방출하는 Relative Sound Power를 연구한다. Sound Power는 수치적으 로 적분되고 몇가지 인자들의 함수로써 적분인자를 표시하였다. Keitie와 Peng[2]는 진동하는 보로부터의 방출하는 Relative Sound Power에 대한 하 중 길이의 효과, 그리고 water 하중을 받는 보에서 방출하는 Acoustic radiation에 대한 Source 운동과 기초 강성의 효과를 연구하였다. 보의 진동 응답에서 light fluid loading과 heavy fluid loading에 의한 양쪽의 반응을 고 려한다. 보에는 기초 강성과 Damping 그리고 장력이 작용한다. water 하중 과 air 하중을 받는 보에서 Damping의 변화에 대한 보로부터 방출하는 relative sound power의 크기를 결정하였다. 일반적으로 인장력보다 압축력 이 작용할 때 relative sound power level이 크다는 것을 알고 있다. 실제로 인장력이나 압축력이 보에 작용할 때 relative sound power에 얼마나 영향을 미치는가를 계산하였다. 그리고 진동계로부터 방출하는 sound fluid loading 과 기초 강성에 기인한 복잡한 효과를 해석하였다. 이 논문의 목적은 강성계 수와 wavenumber 비, 그리고 fluid loading에 대한 sound power의 응답에 대하여 설명하고자 한다.

The inside configuration of intake nozzle of vacuum cleaner greatly affects the dust-collection efficiency and acoustic-noise effect generated from flow separation Interaction between high-speed flow and internal structure. In order to improve the performance of the vacuum cleaner, flow fields inside the intake nozzles were investigated using flow visualization and FIV (Particle Image Vetocimetry) technique. The measurement to aerodynamic power, suction efficiency and noise level were also carried out. Valuable information was obtained from the experiments, revealing how to modify the intake nozzle. In this paper, the results of visualization, velocity distribution of flow fields, aerodynamic power, suction efficiency and noise level are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare head register with chest register of singers acoustically. Fifteen healthy tenor major students were participated. Fifteen healthy untrained adults were chosen as the control group for this study. Long term average (LTA) power spectrum using the Fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm and Linear predictive coding (LPC) filter response were made with /a/ sustained in both head (G4, 392 Hz) and chest registers (C3, 131 Hz). Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test. In the LTA power spectrum, head register of singers increased in the level of energy gain within the frequency of 2.2-3.4 kHz (p<0.01), and 7.5-8.4 kHz (p<0.01, p<0.05). Chest register of singers increased in the frequency of 2.2-3.1 kHz (p<0.01), 7.8-8.4 kHz (p<0.05) and around 9.6 kHz (p<0.01). The LTA power spectrum revealed a peak of acoustic energy around 2,500 Hz, known as the singer's formant and another peak of acoustic energy around 8,000 Hz in the singer's voice.

In this study, a numerical estimation method for 3D underwater radiated noise pattern using hull vibration and total acoustic power of the vibrating structure in the far-field is proposed. The underwater radiated noise pattern is known to be predicted using the vibration signals and radiation efficiency of each surface patch. But it is very difficult to know radiation efficiency of each surface patch which is one of important factors to calculate the 3D underwater radiated noise pattern. Instead of using radiation efficiency of each patch, the underwater radiated noise level is modified with the total acoustic power of the vibrating structure. The suggested estimation method for underwater radiated noise pattern is discussed with numerical model.

Recently, studies on underwater communication, related to the development of underwater resources, disaster monitoring and defense, have been actively carried out. In the design of wireless communication systems, path loss is the most important information to derive a link budget that is required to guarantee communication reliability by calculating received power level for the given communication link. The underwater acoustic channel have different characteristics according to geographical location and relevant environmental factors such as water temperature, depth, wave height, algae, and turbidity. Subsequently, many research institutes aiming to develop underwater acoustic communication systems are researching actively on the underwater acoustic channels in various sea areas. In Korea, however, studies on the path loss of the acoustic channel are still insufficient. Therefore, in this study, the path loss of the acoustic channel are studied based on measurement data of the at-sea experiment conducted at Geohae-do, southern sea of Korea.
