For optimizing the performance of SI engine such as engine torque, fuel consumption, and emissions, systems for variable valve timing were developed by many automotive researchers. In this work, we investigated the relationship between valve timing and intake orifice noise to improve the NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) performance as well as engine torque and power. Two approaches are conducted, which are engine dynamometer testing and 1-D simulation analysis. Experimental data were measured on about 21 different operating conditions. This experiment shows that the intake and exhaust valve timing related to overlap period influence on the NVH performance, especially intake orifice noise of engine at given range of operation conditions. Similar results are achieved by using 1-D simulation analysis. It is concluded that the optimal strategies of controlling valve timing and tuning intake systems, are necessary to develop engines or vehicles with good sound quality.

In this paper, we develop real-time monitoring system to detect third-party damage on natural gas pipeline by using sound propagation model. Since many third-party incidents cause damage that does not lead to immediate rupture but can grow with time, the developed real-time monitoring system can execute a significant role in reducing many third-party damage incidents. The developed system is composed of three steps as follows: i) DSP based system, ii) wireless communication system, iii) the calculation and monitoring software to detect the position of third-party damage using the propagation speed of acoustic wave. Furthermore, the developed system was set at practical offshore pipeline between two islands in Korea and it has been operating in real time.

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.

Noise power of large machineries, such as textile looms, winders, and twisting machines, is often measured in a reverberant space because they cannot be installed and operated in an anechoic chamber due to their size, weight, and operating conditions. Factors affecting the measurement error of an in-situ noise power measurement include the nonuniform reverberation time and the direction of sound intensity vector which is usually regarded as normal to the measurement surface. In this study errors due to these factors are estimated with the aid of numerical simulation based on the ray-tracing technique. The averaging of reverberation times measured at several points on the measurement surface is suggested to reduce the errors from nonuniform absorption. Also the direction cosine of each surface element is taken into account, which as a whole is represented as a solid angle of the measurement surface.

In order to provide a basis data for design of small arms and their silencer, an experimental study on firing noise of small arms was performed around the muzzle of a gun. For this experimental comparison analysis, the target small arms were included most operating small arms in our country. The sound pressure levels were measured at a certain distance which was predetermined according to US army firing test procedure, TOP 3-2-045. By this experimental study, the sound pressure levels of 5.56 mm caliber small arms are 143 dB ~ 145.4 dB and 7.62 mm caliber small arms are 144 dB ~ 145.2 dB. Between the heavy machine gun K12 and M60, the sound pressure level of K12 is slightly lower than M60.Also silencer for K14 snifer rifle was tested. Using this result, it has been found that the reduction effect of the silencer is 15.4 dB but the improvements of silencer performance in the high frequency range have to be studied later on.

In this paper, implement a baby monitor using the arduino for deaf and Visually Impaired. The proposed baby monitors are divided into measuring part & transmit part and linked with the application. The measuring part consists of a sound volume sensor, a transmit part consists of a bluetooth module. The measuring part and transmit part are controlled by the Arduino board. Measure the value of the sound by the sound sensor and delivers value to the arduino board. The measured value is sent to the application by the bluetooth module of transmit part. The application determines the received value and control the smart phone, and outputs the light from the sound and vibration for the value. It showed that the proposed baby monitor and an application is correctly operating in accordance with the value.

A three dimensional linear frequency-domain lifting surface panel method was used for the aerodynamic analysis of axial flow type micro-fans. As proven by the duct modeling, the tip clearance of the micro-fans tested is large enough to ignore the calculated effect of the duct system. As the numerical results and experimental data agreed well in the operating point region, the method was applicable in the parametric studies to determine the design parameters of axial flow fans. Experiments on micro-fans were carried out based on KS B 6311. The newly designed micro-fan showed improvements in both static pressure rise and volumetric flow rate compared to the existing fans at a given operating condition. No detection of surging and the smooth characteristic curve proved the improvement in performance. To reduce the fan noise in the fan design, it was necessary to make use of the frequency spectrum analysis data. Measurement of sound pressure level for micro-fans was conducted based on KS B 6361 and KS A 0705. The peak - which occurs at blade passage frequency and its higher harmonics due to the fan noise - was not detected. This justifies the design methodology of the blade.

Monitoring technology of machining has a long history since unmanned machining was introduced. Despite the long history, many researchers have presented new approaches continuously in this area. Sound based machine fault diagnosis is the process consisting of detecting automatically the damages that affect the machines by analyzing the sounds they produce during their operating time. The collected sound is corrupted by the surrounding work environment. Therefore, the most important part of the diagnosis is to find hidden elements inside the data that can represent the error pattern. This paper presents a feature extraction methodology that combines various digital signal processing and pattern recognition methods for the analysis of the sounds produced by tools. The magnitude spectrum of the sound is extracted using the Fourier analysis and the band-pass filter is applied to further characterize the data. Statistical functions are also used as input to the nonlinear classifier for the final response. The results prove that the proposed feature extraction method accurately captures the hidden patterns of the sound generated by the tool, unlike the conventional features. Therefore, it is shown that the proposed method can be applied to a sound based automatic diagnosis system.
