In the present work, through both theoretical and numerical analysis, the mechanisms underlying the effects of a porous lining were studied. A two-dimensional duct-shaped theoretical\u0000 model and a two-dimensional torus-shaped numerical model were created to investigate the lined tire in conjunction with the Johnson- Champoux-Allard model describing the viscous and thermal dissipative effects of the porous material. The design parameters of the porous lining were varied to\u0000 study their impact and to identify optimal ranges of the design parameters, in particular, the flow resistivity. Finally, in an experimental analysis, the sound attenuation and the frequency drop were observed in measurements of force, acceleration, and sound pressure. In conclusion, it was\u0000 demonstrated that the suggested theoretical and numerical models successfully predict the effects of porous linings and that the frequency reduction results from the decreased sound speed within the tire owing to the presence of the liner.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140520686","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 intention in this article is to provide a concise summary of the methods\u0000 and major findings previously presented in an extensive set of publications and conference presentations. In that work, porous media, such as fibers and foams, were designed to serve as treatments for various vibrating structures to examine their damping effectiveness. Both analytical modeling\u0000 and numerical simulation based on finite element methods were involved depending on the complexity of the structure. Specifically, a Fourier transform-based computational method was introduced as the key step to allow accurate prediction of a panel's spatial response. The analytical model\u0000 was further developed into an efficient software toolbox, so that parametric studies could be conducted to identify the optimal properties for a porous layer to provide the maximum damping within a target frequency region, based on which near-field damping design concepts are summarized.

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":null,"pages":null},"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 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.

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":null,"pages":null},"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":null,"pages":null},"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":null,"pages":null},"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}
