This paper presents the noise source identification of a car A/V system. There are two different kinds of noise sources noise generated by loading mechanism and rattle noise by externally forced vibration. A dynamometer has been made to produce stationary inertia to the loading mechanism of A/V system. Sound pressure spectra and sound intensity were measured by operating the dynamometer setup as various motor speeds, and the results were analyzed. A dominant rattle noise source about A/V system's components has been found by multi-dimensional spectral analysis. Residual spectrum method was applied for eliminating coherence between the vibration sources. In result, the dominant rattle noise source was identified by partial coherent output spectrum of individual vibration component.

Microphone array techniques are being used widely in wind tunnel measurements for identification of the distributed aerodynamic noise sources on the model being tested. Depending on the frequencies and sound levels, conventional beamforming algorithm has limitation in separating two adjacent sources. Several modifications to the classical beamforming have been developed to enhance way resolution and reduce sidelobe levels. In this Paper the robust adaptive beamforming and the CLEAN algorithm are used to compare to the result of conventional beamforming method. It is found that the CLEAN algorithm is capable of pin-pointing locations of multiple sources nearby, while these sources are unidentifiable with robust adaptive or conventional beamforming techniques.

It is known that the various noise sources which are engine, transmission, tire, intake system, etc exist at vehicle driving status. Specially noises which cannot be expected by a driver induce unpleasantness to all passengers. These noises are difficult to distinguish noise sources or specifications because of too many vehicle parts. Therefore in this paper, study on abnormal noise of bush on suspension system is performed by the measurement and analysis of the noises of bushings that are generated artificially. The measured noises are analyzed by two points-view of spectrum and sound quality. Finally, it is shown that the noise sources of bushings on the suspension system which are the pillow ball joint bush of a control arm and the rubber bush of a lower arm could be distinguished by the spectrum distribution and a index value based on tonality.

Recent developments in the prediction of the contribution of windnoise to the interior SPL have opened a realm of new possibilities in terms of i) how the convective and acoustic sources terms can be identified, ii) how the interaction between the source terms and the side glass can be described and finally iii) how the transfer path from the sources to the interior of the vehicle can be modelled. This work discusses in details these three aspects of wind noise simulation and recommends appropriate methods to deliver required results at the right time based on i) simulation and experimental data availability, ii) design stage at which a decision must be made and iii) time available to deliver these results. Several simulation methods are used to represent the physical phenomena involved such as CFD, FEM, BEM, FE/SEA Coupled and SEA. Furthermore, a 1D and 2D wavenumber transformation is used to extract key parameters such as the convective and the acoustic component of the turbulent flow from CFD and/or experimental data whenever available. This work focuses on the validation of the wind noise source characterization method and the vibro-acoustic models on which the wind noise sources are applied.

Recent advances in automotive noise control engineering have reduced major sound sources in the vehicle, customers perceive Buzz, Squeak and Rattle (BSR) as one of important indicators of vehicle quality and durability. As the long-term goal, we expect to establish the integrated design cycle for the reduction of BSR noise in the early stage of development, which consist of design, prediction, and evaluation procedures. This is possible only with great bulk of experimental data for BSR noise. In this paper, BSR noise is experimentally identified for vehicle doors, which have been traditionally considered as one of main sources of BSR noise. Based on this result, we proposed method for the prevention of BSR noise in the vehicle doors.

Most of large structures such as ship, airplane, and so on have internal structure home noise sources. The operation of the machineries results in vibration and noise of the structure. Particularly, the vibration of the machineries is transmitted to the far place from the sources and emits noise into the water or outdoor as well as the inner space of the structure. In the case of warships this emission into the water induces noise to reduce the performance of its underwater acoustic equipment. Therefore the structure home noise levels of the installed machineries are strictly limited. This paper shows examples of structure home noise reduction from machineries including pumps.

SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) is one of the most important performance for the electro-optical camera system. This paper shows not only the SNR analyses for the MSC system, which is the payload in the KOMPSAT2 satellite, but also the trials for its improvement in the electronics circuit design. The MSC deals with one panchromatic band and four multi-spectral bands. The SNR analyses are performed based on the MSC design for the each band and assuming that the defined radiance reached directly to the sensor entrance pupil. In the SNR calculation, shot noise, dark current noise, analog electronics noise and ADC quantization noise are considered as noise sources. In these noise sources, especially, the electronics noise depends on the camera electronics design. This paper shows the camera electronics design to increase SNR and its test results as well as the SNR analyses.

Acoustic noises generated during motor operation in mechanical system are from electromagnetic, mechanical, aerodynamic, and electrical sources. For identification of mechanical noise origins, misalignment, unbalance, fan shape, resonance, and vibration modes have been extensively considered to describe noise behavior. An experiment-based approach as well as a mathematical approach needs to be adopted for a realistic study into noise and vibration of the motor, because motor noise characteristics differ from type to type due to various noise sources. In this paper, a brushless DC motor for air-conditioner fan is analyzed by finite element method to identify noise source, and the analysis results are verified by experiments, and sensitivity analysis is performed by design of experiments.

Cyclone is widely adopted in the vacuum cleaner, because of the simple structure, the high dust collection efficiency and its transparency feature, which can be shown to the customer. At past times, cyclone performance was represented by collection efficiency, flow rate, pressure drop etc. At recent times the noise problem is getting important as cyclone comes into home-appliances. In this paper, pressure drop of cyclone and it's noise were measured at the variation of the cyclone structure and the main sources of cyclone peak noise was found by experimental and numerical analysis. In addition, the structure for peak noise reduction was suggested and it is beneficial both pressure drop and noise reduction.

In order to control the railway noise. we should know the radiation characteristic of the noise during the train passage Generally, the railway noise sources for conventional trains are classified by the rolling noise and power unit noise in tangent track. In this Paper. we describe on a train model that is considered to be a row of point sources to calculate the radiation characteristic The calculation results are compared with short distance measurement of three kinds of trains (EMU, Mookungwha, Saemaul). It is shown that the radiation characteristic of the rolling noise that is major noise source of electric multiple unit is dipole type. We know that characteristic of the engine noise is radiated as the cosine type.
