With recent advance in automotive noise control engineering reducing 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 the BSR noise in the early stage of vehicle 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 systematic method for the prevention of BSR noise in the vehicle doors.

In this work, Altair Engineering's vibroacoustic modeling approach is used to simulate the acoustic signature of a simplified automobile in a wind tunnel. The modeling approach relies on a two step procedure involving simulation and extraction of acoustic sources using a high fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation followed by propagation of the acoustic energy within the structure and passenger compartment using a structural dynamics solver. The tools necessary to complete this process are contained within Altair's HyperWorks CAE software suite. The CFD simulations are performed using AcuSolve and the structural simulations are performed using OptiStruct. This vibroacoustics simulation methodology relies on calculation of the acoustic sources from the flow solution computed by AcuSolve. The sources are based on Lighthill's analogy and are sampled directly on the acoustic mesh. Once the acoustic sources have been computed, they are transformed into the frequency domain using a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) with advanced sampling and are subsequently used in the structural acoustics model. Although this approach does require the CFD solver to have knowledge of the acoustic simulation domain a priori, it avoids modeling errors introduced by evaluation of the acoustic source terms using dissimilar meshes and numerical methods. The aforementioned modeling approach is demonstrated on the Hyundai Simplified Model (HSM) geometry in this work. This geometry contains flow features that are representative of the dominant noise sources in a typical automobile design; namely vortex shedding from the passenger compartment A-pillar and bluff body shedding from the side view mirrors. The geometry also contains a thick poroelastic material on the interior that acts to reduce the acoustic noise. This material is modeled using a Biot material formulation during the structural acoustic simulation. Successful prediction of the acoustic noise within the HSM geometry serves to validate the vibroacoustic modeling approach for automotive applications.

수동소나 시스템에서는 함정의 소음원에서 발생하는 방사 소음을 분석하여 표적을 탐지 및 식별한다. 소나의 탐지 범위 안에 다수의 소음원이 존재하면 신호를 분석할 때 각 소음원에서 나오는 성분들이 혼합되어 각각의 소음원을 규명하기가 어렵다. 이를 해결하기 위해 일반적으로는 배열 센서를 이용한 빔을 형성하여 소음원의 신호를 공간적으로 분리하는 기법이 사용되지만 환경에 따라 여전히 어려운 점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 수동소나 표적신호를 분리하기 위한 새로운 방법으로 주파수영역 독립성분분석(FDICA: Frequency Domain Independent Component Analysis)을 적용하고, 혼합된 표적신호를 분리하는 모의실험을 수행하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다. 표적신호 합성을 위한 특징 정보로는 기계류 토널 성분 및 프로펠러 성분을 사용하였고, 분리 전 후의 결과를 LOFAR(Low Frequency Analysis and Recording), DEMON(Detection Envelope Modulation On Noise) 분석을 통해 비교하였다.

This paper deals with the design of a microphone array to measure location and spectral characteristics of railway noise sources. A microphone array estimates the direction of a noise source assumed as a point source using the delayed-sum beamforming method and its performance is determined in terms of resolution and side-lobe level. A 48 channel microphone array was already developed to measure noise sources of KTX trains and a new array with 96 microphones has been designed to enhance the performance. This paper simulates the performance the microphone arrays according to the configuration of microphones and verifies it through on-site tests.

The objective of this study is to determine the effect for the sound quality according to the noise source and to build the sound quality index of the laundry noise. In order to compare laundry noise among the influence of noise sources, we made virtual laundry noises by synthesizing an actual laundry noise and each noise source such as a dropping noise, water noise, motor noise and circulation pump noise. We conducted a listening test by customers using virtual laundry noises. As a result of listening test, we found that the dropping noise has a decisive effect on the sound quality of the laundry noise. We conducted the multi regression analysis of sound quality for the laundry noise using the statistical data processing. It is verified to the reliability of the multi regression index by comparison with listening results and index results of other actual laundry noises. This study is expected to provide a guide line for improvement of the laundry noise.

We discuss two possible optical noise sources in an electro-optic camera loaded on a low earth orbit satellite. The first noise source was a reflection at the window for signal rays incident upon the window which is placed before the FPA plane. The second noise source came from a reflection at the surface of the FPA cell when the signal flux is not entirely absorbed. We investigate the noise generation processes for two optical noise sources, and a parametric solution is used to estimate the optical noise effects.

The purpose of this research is to setup the design procedure of low noise rolling stocks. Noise sources are identified at a field test, and the contribution of noise sources to each part of car interior is ensured by sound intensity measurement technique. Added material to each section of the carbody makes it possible to identify absorption or reflection performance of each part to the anterior random noise. Such experimental tests to the exterior noise intruding through the floor represent that the best countermeasure on the floor is to implement reflecting material which can properly interfere noise. Design procedure of low noise rolling stocks is set through several experiments.

This study is concerned with the reduction of noise radiation by an industrial fan unit. Among the noise sources involved in the fan unit, this article is focused on the noise source due to vibration of panels of the unit housing. It is shown here that noise radiation associated with the panel vibration can be as significant in some frequency ranges as that associated with other noise sources such as aeroacoustic fan noise.

Cyclone is widely apoted in the vacuum cleaner, because of it's simple structure, the dust collection efficiency is high and its transparency feaure which can be shown to the customer. At past times, cyclone performance is 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, cyclone's pressure drop and noise is measured at the variation of the cyclone structure and the main sources of cyclone peak noise is found by experiments and numerical analysis. In addition, the structure for peak noise reduction is suggested and it is beneficial both pressure drop and noise reduction.

This paper deals with the noise evaluation and noise reduction of a reciprocating air-compressor. The reciprocating air-compressor is widely used in the small and medium sized industrial firms, many employees exposed and irritated by their noise in the workplace. Thus, appropriate noise control actions should be taken to prevent hearing loss due to the its noise exposure. Lead-wrapping techniques are employed to identify the contribution of principal noise sources which are generally known to be motor, belts, suction valves, discharge valves, moving parts, and flow-induced noise caused by edges or discontinuities along the flow path including expansions, contractions, junctions and bends. As a result, the main noise sources of the air-compressor are categorized by the suction and discharge noise, valve noise, and compressed air tank noise. Based on the investigations, mufflers are designed to reduce both the suction and discharge noise and the compressed-air tank noise. Instead of the conventional valve plate, polyethylene resin is used the reduction of valve impact noise. In addition, attempts are made to reduce the valve noise propagation to the cylinder head and the compressor tank by using the insulation casings. As a result of the countermeasure plans, a noise reduction up to 10dB(A) could be achieved for the air-compressor.
