The purpose of this study is to suggest a fundamental data for change of dynamic properties according to the loading time of resilient materials. 18 kinds of resilient materials included 4 representative types were measured at the load time of 24hours and 2hours by the method of Korea standard (KS F 2868) measuring the dynamic stiffness and the loss factor of materials under floating floors. As a result, the dynamic stiffness was increased rapidly in case of expandable polystyrene and rubber materials according to the load time, especially before 2 hours. The loss factor was represented that rubber materials with high elasticity are high, and expandable polystyrene, polyester, poly ethylene materials with low elasticity are low.

Floating floor is most commonly used at apartment houses in Korea for thermal insulation and reducing impact noise. But it in proven that the floating floor is not effective for reducing the floor impact noise in low frequency range. In most cases, impact sound pressure level under 63 Hz frequency band were actually increased by the resonance of resilient material, lightweight concrete and the finishing mortar installed on it. In this paper, an integrated floor system consist of 70 mm light weight concrete and 40 mm finishing mortar successively installed on the concrete slab was suggested to avoid the resonance. Integrated floor system increases total flexural stiffness and mass per unit area. The natural frequencies of first and second vibration mode were increased and acceleration response and floor impact sound level was decreased in all measurement range.

In present study, it aims to compare the noise and vibration characteristics between magnesium alloy and steel hood panel. The AZ31 magnesium hood panel was fabricated through warm forming process, and the noise and vibration characteristics between both hood panels was compared through the measurement of engine radiation noise and transmission loss, as well as FRF on modal analysis. The sound insulation performance of magnesium alloy was wholly superior to that of steel hood panel, even though the transmission loss of magnesium alloy is lower than that of steel due to mass effect primarily. The FRF characteristics on modal analysis indicates that the resonance frequency of magnesium hood panel is remarkably increased to higher value than that of steel hood panel. The radiation and interior noise of magnesium panel even without acoustic hood insulation were remarkably lower than those of steel hood panel with acoustic insulation, in particular, at a range below 4,000 rpm.

Inter-floor noise in an apartment building is a serious problem that causes conflicts between tenants. Accordingly, there are various attempts to solve this problem, but it is not easy to find a clear solution. Therefore, in this study, a soundproofing material between floors was developed that can improve the sagging that occurs after construction. And as a result of testing the developed interlayer soundproofing material, both light weight and weight were grade 1. And it was analyzed that maintenance performance could be improved with integrated structural characteristics.

Recently, in accordance with the buildings are becoming to large-sizes, high-stories, the large scaled facilities and equipments in machine room are quite demanding, and the generated noise volume according to this situation is on increasing. Since such noise is becoming to the object of a serious civil appeal, it is the real situation that a reduction countermeasure against the machine room equipment noise is keenly necessitated. On such viewpoint, this study has recorded, measured the noises which were generated from each individual as same as the whole equipped machines and tools, on the object of the dormitory machine rooms of the 3 colleges that haying mutually different peculiarities, then after grasp-ing their characters and acoustic powers, this research has verified its prediction possibility and the authenticity by comparison the estimated numerical value with the actually measured numerical value through the acoustic simulation. After grasping the prediction possibility in such way, by utilization of the sound absorption material in the machinery room, from the stage of design, the soundproof measures for the noise reduction at machine room could be regulated effectively, and it is also considered that such data would be utilized as the fundamental material for an establishment of the measure for sound insulation.

This paper reports the test results of the floating floor system used to reduce the floor noise of apartment buildings. Recently, many soft resilient materials placing between the reinforced concrete slab and finishing mortar are used. The resilient material should not only reduce the floor impact sound vibration from the floor but also support the load on the floor. Thus, even if soft resilient materials satisfy the maximum limitation of light-weight impact sound and heavy-weight impact sound, these materials may not support the load on the floor. The experimental program involved conducting sixteen sound insulation floating floor specimens. Three main parameters were considered in the experimental investigation: resilient materials, loading location, and layers of floor. Experimental results indicated that the stiffness of resilient material significantly influenced on the structural behavior of floating floor system. In addition, the deflection of the floating concrete floor loaded at the side or coner of the specimen was greater than that of the floor loaded at the center of the specimen. However, the aerated concrete did not effect on the cracking strength of floating floor system.

The thermal impact of mica/epoxy paper(130${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) is investigated using XRD, DSC and TGL X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis was performed to know the position and structure of mica crystal in insulation materials. A differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) was used to measure glass transition temperature and excess enthalphy of the composite materials that had been subjected to thermal aging. The glass transition temperature(T$_{g}$) measured by DSC is observed at 95.43$^{\circ}C$ and 113.43$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The T$_{g}$ also increases with increased aging time. Measurements performed by TGA(thermogravimetric analysis) have showed that weight loss profile of sound specimens are lower than those aged.ged.

The preparation of porous lightweight materials as well as the measurement of physical properties has been performed by using SSA(sewage sludge ash) as the raw material. For this aim, two types of lightweight filler, that is, perlite and silica sphere were employed respectively and bentonite was also used as an inorganic binder. The properties of lightweight specimen calcined at 1,000 were measured in terms of density, compressive strength, thermal conductivity and sound absorption to examine the effect of material composition as well as the preparation condition on the properties of lightweight material. As a result, the density of specimen prepared with perlite was ranged from 1.23 to $1.37g/cm^3$ and the compressive strength was ranged from 242.3 to $370.5kg/cm^2$. In case of specimen prepared with silica sphere, it was found that the compressive strength was less than $100kg/cm^2$ even though density was lower than that of specimen with perlite. As far as the thermal conductivity of specimen was concerned, it was ranged from 0.3 to $0.5W/m^{\circ}K$ depending on material composition so that the insulation effect was superior to conventional concrete.

The frame elements of modern high speed trains are typically fabricated with extruded aluminum panels. However, the sound transmission loss (STL) of extruded aluminum panels is less satisfactory than flat panels with the same surface density. This study proposes a method for prediction of the sound transmission loss of extruded aluminum panels using finite element analysis. The panel is modeled by finite element analysis, and the STL is calculated using a measure of Sommerfeld radiation at the specimen surface, boundary conditions, and the internal loss factor of the material. In order to verify the validity of the predicted value, intensity transmission loss was measured on the aluminum specimen according to ASTM E2249-02. The proposed method of analysis will be utilized to predict the sound insulation performance of extruded aluminum panels for railway vehicles in the design stage, and to establish measures for their improvement.
