This paper is concerned with the measurement of low-frequency vibrations of structures using the image processing method. To measure the vibrations visually, the measurement system consists of a camera, an image grabber board, and a computer. The specific target installed on the structure is used to calculate the vibration of structure. The captured image is then converted into a pixel-based data and then analyzed numerically. The limitation of the system depends on the image capturing speed and the size of image. In this paper, we propose the methodology for the vibration measurement using the image processing method. The method enables us to measure the displacement directly without any contact. The current resolution of the vibration measurement is limited to sub centimeter scale. However, the frequency bandwidth and resolution can be enhanced by a high-speed and high-resolution image processing system.

With increasing number construction of high-rise building which has about 40 to 60 floors there have been many kinds of problem which related with usage from vibration. To predict response acceleration, it is important to assess correct natural frequency. However, due to the noise of MEMS sensor, it is difficult to measure dynamic characteristic such as natural frequency when measuring ambient vibration using MEMS sensor within cell phone. Therefore, a comparative analysis on vibration measuring applications was performed after measuring ambient vibration of 2 skyscrappers which have height between 133.5~244.3m that are located in Seoul and Observation tower using I-jishin APP with noise reduction function of MEMS sensor in order to verify the effectiveness of low noise type vibration measurement APP.

In this paper, we present a new method to diagnose the characteristics of the soft tissue, especially a liver. In order to diagnose the characteristics of a liver, it is necessary to evaluate the propagation delay time and propagation velocity of bending vibration In a liver. For this purpose, we measure the propagation velocity of bending vibration in a liver for low frequency forced vibration using a standard ultrasonic Doppler diagnosis equipment. We have carried out preliminary experiments by using an ultrasonic probe of 3.5MHz and obtained some results. This new measurement method developed here can be applied to new research and medical fields for acoustic non-invasive diagnosis of soft tissue.

Two problems in the measurement of 6-DOF head vibration in very low frequency range were investigated in this study. One is how much error was involved in the estimation of three rotational and three translational motion at any specified point from measured 6 translational accelerations. The other is quantitative and qualitative influence of gravity on DC and AC component of the estimated accelerations in 6 degree of freedom, which were derived from pick-ups fixed on a helmet. In the study the effect of nonlinear terms on the estimation of 6 degree of freedom accelerations was negligible but gravity effect must be considered carefully.

For the simultaneous measurement of strain and vibration signal, a fiber Bragg grating sensor system with a dual demodulator was proposed. One demodulator using a tunable Fabry-Perot filter could measure low-frequency signal such as strain and the other demodulator using a coarse wavelength division multiplexer could detect high-frequency signal such as vibration signal using intensity demodulation method. In order to measure strain and vibration of the composite main wing model under static loading a real time monitoring program was developed. Also using intensity demodulation of CWDM, sensitivity and resolution at high frequency vibration were evaluated.

The low frequency noise, including infra-sound is known to affect human physiology and psychology. Guidelines and measurement method of low frequency noise has been introduced in several countries in order to evaluate low frequency noise. In this work, low frequency noise characteristics of dump truck was investigated in terms of the noise level and spectrum. The interior sound pressure level of the dump truck was between 60 and 105 dB in the frequency range of $1{\sim}250$ Hz.

The low frequency noise, including infra-sound is known to affect human physiology and psychology. Guidelines and measurement method of low frequency noise has been introduced in several countries in order to evaluate low frequency noise. In this work, low frequency characteristics of Daejeon subway was investigated in terms of the noise level and spectrum in the interior of running subway car and the subway station. The interior sound pressure level of the passenger car was between 60 and 102 dB in the frequency range of $1{\sim}250$ Hz.

A laboratory study on low frequency noise assessment has been carried out to evaluate the relevance of the weighting curve. Especially, the A-weighting curve which is used in most noise assessments has been evaluated using the acceptability limit in this study. The acceptability limit is one of the indicators in which the subjective responses were well-reflected. For the measurement of the acceptability limit, pure tone stimuli were used in the frequency range between 20 and 200 Hz. The measurement was proceeded in the anechoic chamber to minimize the background noise level. A total of 29 test subjects, who were aged between 19 to 33 years, participated in this study. They had been exposed to various stimuli for about 1 hour by supra-aural earphone. The measurement consisted of two listening sessions: hearing threshold and the acceptability limit session. The results showed that the tendency of the acceptability limit curve was approximately equal to C-weighting curve which had been found to be superior to A-weighting curve in assessment of low frequencies.
