However, the still nascent understanding of various geometrical defects occurring during the additive process remains a barrier to accurately predicting the acoustical behavior of such complex absorbers. In this study, we present the results from our efforts on numerically modeling the absorption behavior of periodic porous absorbers fabricated using the stereolithography (SLA) technique using the hybrid micro-macro multiphysics approach. Specifically, we focus on understanding the role played by the expansion or shrinkage of the solid ligaments during the SLA process on the acoustical properties of the final printed samples. First, the periodic absorbers are modeled using COMSOL multiphysics, where the transport properties are derived using the micro-modeling method and sound absorption behavior using the Johnson-Champoux-Allard-Lafarge-Pride semi-empirical model. Then, results from the expansion study guide the changes in the ligament sizes in the unit cell modeling. Finally, the fabricated samples are tested using an impedance tube, and the measured absorption properties are compared to the a priori numerical predictions. Results indicate that accounting for fabrication defects within the numerical modeling schema can provide reliable sound absorption predictions for additively manufactured porous absorbers.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transfer matrix method was combined with FEM calculations for two different termination conditions (plane wave radiation and rigid wall) in order to retrieve the equivalent matrix of the porous layer with the integrated periodic resonator. The equivalent matrix is then coupled analytically in series with others matrices. Finite element method studies are carried out on single and double wall configurations, and the effects of different resonator parameters and the air gap on the transmission loss are illustrated. The influences of the orientation of the neck opening and the resistivity of the porous material are also studied. Finite element method results for different incident angles are presented for single and double wall configurations. The proposed design can potentially be integrated into the panels of aircraft cabins in order to reduce the noise level at low frequencies inside the cabin.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contact-based vibration acquisition approaches are traditionally used for the purpose of machine health monitoring and end-of-line quality control. In complex working conditions, it can be difficult to perform an accurate accelerometer based vibration test. Acoustic signals (sound pressure and particle velocity) also contain important information about the operating state of mechanical equipment and can be used to detect different faults. A deep learning approach, namely, one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D-CNNs) can directly process raw time signals, thereby eliminating the human dependence on fault feature extraction. An experimental research study is conducted to test the proposed 1D-CNN methodology on three different electric motor faults. The results from the study indicate that the fault detection performance from the acoustic-based measurement method is very effective and thus can be a good replacement to the conventional accelerometer-based methods for detection and diagnosis of mechanical faults in electric motors.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Generally, the optimal sensor locations are evaluated by calculating the multiple coherence function (MCF) between all possible reference signal combinations with road noise. However, this trial-and- error method becomes time-consuming when the number of candidate locations is large. The transfer path analysis method can select the optimal sensor locations quickly while with low accuracy. Therefore, this article proposes two fast optimal sensor placement (FOSP) methods, namely, Wiener filter (WF)-FOSPand the MCF-FOSP, respectively. In both methods, the sensors are iteratively extended to the desired number, and each added sensor maximizes the predicted noise reduction of this iteration loop. Numerous ARNC simulations based on measured signals are conducted to illustrate the performance of the proposed two methods in terms of efficiency and accuracy. The results demonstrate that the WF-FOSP method provides the best comprehensive performance. The data analysis for one operating condition takes three minutes, and the absolute error is within 5% with respect to the benchmark. In addition, two schemes are discussed to obtain a set of sensor locations compatible with the noise reduction requirement of different operating conditions. The sensor locations can achieve a maximum average noise reduction of 7.29 dB(A) under four operating conditions.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optimal control filter coefficients can be obtained by solving a constrained optimization problem, which usually requires a significant computational effort. Recently, a convex formulation in conic form was proposed for ANC filter design. The proposed formulation was shown to result in a computational time reduction by several orders of magnitude. It is of great interest to further improve its efficiency by using a priori information of the optimal filter coefficients. One potential way of achieving this goal is to introduce a warmstart technique so that the filter solution of a similar system or environment can be referred to for selecting the starting point of the optimization algorithm. However, the conic formulation should be solved by the interior-point method, which, in general, is challenging for applying warmstart techniques. In the current work, relaxation methods are proposed to the constraints of original ANC filter design formulation so that the warmstart techniques can be applied. Then, a warmstarting technique proposed in previous study is used to solve a series of perturbed problems, and the performance of the warmstarting technique is investigated. Results show that with the proposed modifications applied, the warmstarting strategy can significantly reduce the number of iterations needed for solving the conic formulation of the ANC filter design problem without much tuning efforts, and the method is effective and robust in various environmental setups.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hydraulic bushings exhibit tuned properties emerging from nonlinear interactions involving these flow characteristics, so higher resolution descriptions of the underlying physics are needed under realistic flow conditions. This paper discusses an approach to isolate the fluid passage features in production bushings to enable experimental characterization for steady, oscillatory, and transient flow. More robust models of dynamic responses in the time and frequency domains are expected to result from this more precise determination of each flow path's contribution to the nonlinear system response. An apparatus capable of generating steady and dynamic flow is proposed, and some validation data are given to demonstrate the functionality of the experiment. Some challenges with the approach are considered, including the system's hydraulic compliance and cavitation. The flow testing apparatus is used on an example two-passage production bushing adapted for controlled steady or dynamic flow through one or both flow paths. Finally, some nonlinear flow properties of a typical hydraulic bushing's flow passages are given.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135687293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Distortion occurs when sound propagates through these partitions, which can cause distractions in communication and degrade the service quality. In the current work, a constrained multi-channel active hear-through system is proposed to provide a solution to provide more natural sound communication environments and prevent sound distortions due to partitioning structures. The proposed method can preserve both the spectrum and the spatial distribution of the original sound field (the sound field when the partition is absent). This research opens the potential for future development of multi-channel two-way communication systems and improvement in existing augmented reality techniques. Experimental results show that, compared with the traditional direct inverse filter design method, the proposed method can reduce the comb-filtering effect effectively.
