High order statistical parameters were evaluated using the electrochemical noise data collected during corrosion of type 430 stainless steel coupled to a inert, platinum electrode in 3.5% NaCl solution. High order statistical parameters are shown to predict uniform corrosion properly. However, Localization index, skewness of current, kurtosis and skewness of potential are capable of predicting pitting corrosion only when the transients are large with long life time. Of the high order statistical parameters evaluated, kurtosis of current is found to be the most sensitive parameter for detecting uniform and pitting corrosion.

The purpose of this study is to find the amount of contributions of each Sirroco fan parameter to noise and performance using experimental and numerical approaches. We made several fans and structures related to fan housing and fan for parameter study like inlet blade angle, outlet blade angle, inlet diameter, outlet diameter, blade shape. etc.. Numerical analysis was performed using commercial code (FANNOISE) for the part not to be possible to do experiment. Using these parameter study, We have found the way to reduce noise and improve performance of fan and had some useful data for designing low noise and high performance fan.

Taguchi parameter design is an approach to reducing performance variation of quality characteristic value in products and processes. Taguchi has used SN (Signal to Noise) ratio to achieve the appropriate set of operating conditions where variability around target is low in the Taguchi parameter design. This paper describes the prediction technique of vehicle performance using parameter analysis to reduce man hour and test development period as well as to achieve stable NVH performance. Design engineer could efficiently decide the design variable using parameter analysis database in early design stage. These improvements can reduce the time needed to develop better vehicles.

Solutions to the problems of structural parameter estimation from modal response using leastsquares minimization of force or displacement residuals are generally sensitive to noise in the response measurements. The sensitivity of the parameter estimates is governed by the physical characteristics of the structure and certain features of the noisy measurements. It has been shown that the regularization method can be used to reduce effects of the measurement noise on the estimation error through adding a regularization function to the parameter estimation objective function. In this paper, we adopt the regularization function as the Euclidean norm of the difference between the values of the currently estimated parameters and the a priori parameter estimates. The effect of the regularization function on the outcome of parameter estimation is determined by a regularization factor. Based on a singular value decomposition of the sensitivity matrix of the structural response, it is shown that the optimal regularization factor is obtained by using the maximum singular value of the sensitivity matrix. This selection exhibits the condition where the effect of the a priori estimates on the solutions to the parameter estimation problem is minimal. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated in comparison with certain algorithms selected from the literature by using a numerical example.

The error intensity models for the ML estimation of a signal parameter have been developed in a companion paper [1]. While the methods described in [1] are applicable to any estimation problem with continuous parameters, our main application in this paper is the time delay estimation, and comparisons among the models derived in [1] (i.e. LC, LM, and ALM models)have been made. We first consider the case where only additive Gaussian noise is involved, and then the shot noise environment where coherent impulsive noise is also involved in addition to the Gaussian noise. We compare the models in terms of the probability of error, MSE(Mean Squared Error), and the computational complexity, which are the most important performance criteria in the analysis of parameter estimation. In conclusion, the ALM model turned out to be the most adequate model of all from the viewpoints of the criteria mentioned above.

Interaction between system and disturbance results in system with time-dependent parameter. Parameter variation due to interaction has random characteristics. Most of the randomly varying parameters in control problem is regarded as white noise random process which is not a realistic model. In real situation those random variation is colored noise random process. Modified F-P-K equation is proposed to get the response of the random parametric system using some correction factor. Proposed technique is employed to obtain the colored noise parametric system response and confirmed via Monte-Carlo Simulation.

The purpose of this study is to reveal the quantitative dose-response relationship between the noise emitted in the platform of subway station and the public response. The noise measured in the platform of subway station was used for a jury test. In order to find the factors which influence annoyance response due to the platform noise, jurors were examined for the difference of the annoying response, interrelation of sound quality parameter and annoyance response. The platform noise level was 77.2$\sim$83.9 dBA and the most of passengers at the platform were highly annoyed. And screen door contributes to annoyance reduction of platform noise. The results from analyzing sound quality parameters shows that loudness and annoyance response have a high correlation coefficient.

To develop wide-band noise absorbers with a special design for low-frequency performance, this study proposes a tin oxide (Sn-O) thin films as the noise absorbing materials in a microstrip line. Sn-O thin films were deposited on polyimide film substrates by reactive sputtering of the Sn target under flowing $O_{2}$ gas, exhibiting a wide variation of surface resistance (in the range of $10^{0}-10^{5}{\Omega}$) depending on the oxygen partial pressure during deposition. The microstrip line with characteristic impedance of $50\Omega$ was used for the measurement of noise absorption by the Sn-O films. The reflection parameter $(S_{11})$ increased with a decrease of surface resistance due to an impedance mismatch at the boundary between the film and the microstrip line. Meanwhile, the transmission parameter $(S_{21})$ diminished with a decrease of surface resistance resulting from an Ohmic loss of the Sn-O films. The maximum noise absorption predicted at an optimum surface resistance of the Sn-O films was about $150{\Omega}$. For this film, greater power absorption is predicted in the lower frequency region (about 70% at 1 GHz) than in conventional magnetic sheets of high magnetic loss, indicating that Ohmic loss is the predominant loss parameter for the conduction noise absorption in the low frequency band.

In this paper, Generalized Differential Quadrature Method is applied to the buckling analysis of built-up columns without or with stay plates. numerical analysis using GDQM is carried out for various boundary conditions(simply supported conditions, fixed conditions, fixed-simply supported conditions), dimensionless stiffness parameter and dimensionless inertia moment parameter. The accuracy and convergence of solutions are compared with exact solutions of Gjelsvik to validate the results of GDQM. Results obtained by this method are as follows. 91) This method can yield the accurate numerical solutions using few grid points. (2) The buckling load of built-up column increases as the dimensionless stiffness parameter decreases. (3) The effects of boundary conditions on the buckling load are not considerable as the dimensionless stiffness parameter increases. (4) The buckling load of built-up column increases due to the stay plate.
