Sound quality engineering in automobile noise applications has become more and more important under the current quiet driving condition because various noise components masked under high noise level can be audible in quieter driving situation. Many researches have been carried out for subjective and objective assessments on automobile sounds and noises. In particular, the interior sound quality has been one of research fields that can give high-quality feature to automobile products. Although many works related to the interior sound quality have been progressed or completed in foreign countries, limited research results are presented in the country. In the study, subjective assessments are first performed with 20 subjects to select perceptual adjectives suitable to the assessment of car interior noises during acceleration. The selected perceptual adjectives are employed as the assessment scales to evaluate the acceleration noises in questionnaire procedures using 35 subjects, for which several noises are created through digital filtering of the acceleration noises measured. Mean values and standard deviations for subjective assessment scores obtained by the questionnaire procedures are calculated and their reliability are also verified. Finally, various statistical analyses such as the correlation analysis and the factor analysis are carried out to reveal the interrelationship between the assessment scales and the spectrum components of the acceleration noises.

Sound quality engineering in automobile noise applications has become more and more important under the current quiet driving condition that the interior noise level is below 65 dBA, because various noise components masked under high noise level can be audible in quieter driving situation. Many researches have been carried out for subjective and objective assessments on automobile sounds and noises. In particular, the interior sound quality has been one of research fields that can give high-quality feature to automobile products. Although many works related to the interior sound quality have been progressed or completed in foreign countries, limited research results are presented in the country. In the study, as a base step necessary to objective assessments on car interior noises, subjective assessments are performed with 20 subjects. For this purpose, perceptual adjectives suitable to the assessment of acceleration noises are selected as assessment scales through questionnaire procedures using 35 subjects. Mean values and standard deviations are calculated for noises created through digital filtering of acceleration noises measured. In addition, the correlation analysis and the factor analysis are carried out to investigate the dependence of the assessment scales selected.

자동차 엔진을 포함한 구동계 및 흡배기계 소음의 특징은 차수 스펙트럼(order spectrum) 분석으로 파악할 수 있다. 기존의 선행 연구에서는 엔진의 1차 및 2차 점화주파수(firing frequency)와 관련된 차수성분이 차실내부 소음에 주요한 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 차수스펙트럼의 변환에 따른 차실내부 소음의 음질(쾌적감) 차이를 파악하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 6실린더 및 4실린더 가솔린 엔진을 가진 승용차의 차실 내부 소음을 측정하고, 이 소음에 적응형 디지털 필터(adaptive digital filter)를 적용하여 차수레벨을 가감하는 방법으로 수정한다. 쌍비교법을 이용한 청음실험을 통하여 원음 및 편집음의 음질 정도를 평가하고, 음질 향상을 위한 차수스펙트럼 변화 방향을 제시한다. 결과적으로 반-차수(half-order) 성분의 차수레벨 감소가 차실내부 소음의 쾌적감 향상에 영향을 주는 반면, 점화차수 레벨의 감소가 항상 음질에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것은 아님을 파악하였다.

미국과 영국에서는 교실의 적정한 음환경을 제공하기 위하여 잔향시간 및 배경소음에 대한 기준이 수립되어 있다. 또한 이를 실현하기 위한 건축계획방법 및 실내마감재 적용에 대한 가이드라인을 제시하고 있다. 그러나 대한민국의 경우 학교 교실의 배경소음 기준을 만족하기 위한 가이드라인이 부족할 뿐만 아니라 이에 기초가 되는 교실 벽체의 차음성능에 대한 실태조사가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 학교 교실의 실내외 소음에 대한 차음성능을 조사하기 위하여 대한민국 청주시 소재 중학교 2개소의 외부벽체와 실간벽체의 구조를 조사하였다. 실내외 벽체의 차음성능 및 측로전달소음을 비교분석하기 위하여 투과손실, 가중 표준화 음압레벨차, 음향 감쇠 계수, 신호대잡음비 등을 측정하였다. 연구결과 실간벽체의 경우 건식벽으로 건립된 학교의 차음성능이 습식벽보다 높게 나타났으며, 특히 중고파수대역에서 높은 차음성능을 나타내었다. 외부벽체의 경우 각 학교 별로 차음성능을 비교하였을 때 단창을 이중으로 배치한 학교보다 복층유리를 사용한 학교의 성능이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 측로전달소음의 경우 창문을 모두 개방하거나 복도 측 창문과 문을 연 경우 기준을 초과하는 것으로 나타나 내부 소음에 의해 학생이 음성전달에 방해를 받을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Transfer path analysis(TPA) and panel contribution analysis(PCA) have been used widely to reduce interior noise of mechanical systems. TPA enables us to decompose interior noise into air-borne and structure-borne noises and estimate the path contribution of noise sources. PCA is also used to identify the noise contribution of each sub-panel in vibro-acoustic systems. In this paper, TPA and PCA are applied to wheel loader, one of the heavy construction equipments. Firstly, TPA for air-borne noise is conducted to estimate the contribution of air-borne sources using pressure transfer function. Thereafter, TPA for structure -borne noise is employed to verify the results of air-borne source quantification through the synthesis of two results. Secondly, PCA is performed by both TPA using pressure transfer function between panels inside the cabin and boundry element method(BEM) for the cabin of wheel loader with various boundary conditions. As a results, it was found that TPA conducted by experiments and PCA accomplished by both experiments and BEM are very effective methods in analyzing the path and contribution of the noises for reducing an interior noise level in the wheel loader system.

In Korea, the high-speed train is one of the most important mass transportation. Due to its fast speed, the interior noise level is high and it is one of major reason for passenger complaints. In this study, the response of passengers to interior noise was evaluated using sound quality parameters. The effects of various parameters, such as train types, travel speed, rail road, on the calculated sound quality were investigated. The characteristics of interior noise were identified. The obtained results were compared to auditory experimental data. For precise comparison of noises of similar loudness but with different characteristics, paired comparison method was used. From the comparison, important parameters that have influence on the annoyance and loudness of the noise were determined.

As the major sources of interior noise of train at running condition are the wheel/rail contact noise, the traction motor's noise and the driving gear's noise and these noise sources are transmitted through the car body, the noises of HVAC and air duct can be ignored. But the interior noise of train at standstill condition is decided by HVAC's noise and noise from the diffuser through the air duct. the interior noise prediction of train at standstill condition should be performed considering the shape of air duct, the air velocity and noise reduction property inside the air duct. But it is hard to estimate the interior noise level by the numerical method. Therefore train maker predict the interior noise level using The commercial noise prediction program. This paper introduce the noise prediction method of the train at standstill condition using the commercial program appling the ray tracing method and statistical energy analysis.

Improvement of structure-borne noises in the vehicle compartments has been one of the primary concerns in the development of vehicles. The booming is an annoying low frequency interior noise and vibration in vehicle. But it is difficult to reduce the structure-born booming noise in traditional method - trial and error within the shorten development schedule. So in present, the structure dynamic modification (SDM) method helpful to predict the effect of the local mass, stiffness, and damping is introduced. So in order to reduce the interior booming noise, the SDM was performed, and verified with modal test result. It was shown that the interior booming noise was reduced as predicted.

Since railway vehicle's improvements on speed and weight has caused interior noise, the passenger's convenience fell dramatically. Therefore many on-going researches are dedicated to reduce interior noise. In this study the analytical prediction of interior noise reduction has done through filling up the empty space using form and to modify the floor structure, which contributes highly with interior noises. Using Statistical Energy Analysis(SEA), the interior noise of the vehicles without the form filling on the floor structure and the vehicles with form filling and also a modified structure has been predicted. The selected percentage of form filling was 0, 50, 100% and through this research the analysis of noise reduction by form filling has been made. When floor structure has been filled with form, approximately 2 dB of noise reduction was observed and the difference of noise reduction level with 50 and 100% form filling was predicted to be very little. Through this study, the expectation of interior noise reduction in high speed trains is considered high.

Vibration transmitted through rolling tire is a major source of road noise in vehicle interior noise on the range of low frequency.($0{\sim}500Hz$) Among various road noises, tire cavity noise has very peak on $200{\sim}250Hz$. And generally it is generated by cavity resonance of tire. In this paper, tire cut-sample is used to calculate the tire cavity frequency. Cavity resonance frequency of tire is measured through vertical/tangential forces at load cell of axle using drum cleat impact. This method is useful to find cavity peak because measured forces do not have complex peaks. And changing the test conditions (air inflation, loads), tire cavity resonance characteristics are identified. Finally, vehicle interior noise is measured as tire/vehicle are changing. As difference of tire vertical force is bigger, interior noise level is higher at cavity frequency. Also we can assume that vehicle sensitivity is important factor at tire cavity noise.
