Sensor location considerations for active noise control in enclosures

Fuzzy Active Noise Modeling and Control of Enclosures

The design of active noise control has been developed in the last two decades based on linear identification and control tools. However, acoustic processes present nonlinearities coming both from the characteristics of the actuator and from the nature of the process. Recent research has emphasized the importance of nonlinear model-based controllers, which increase the performance of several typ...

Virtual sensors for active noise control in acoustic-structural coupled enclosures using structural sensing: robust virtual sensor design.

The work was aimed to develop a robust virtual sensing design methodology for sensing and active control applications of vibro-acoustic systems. The proposed virtual sensor was designed to estimate a broadband acoustic interior sound pressure using structural sensors, with robustness against certain dynamic uncertainties occurring in an acoustic-structural coupled enclosure. A convex combinatio...

Active Noise Control in Pardis Coach using Different Fuzzy Controllers

In recent years, need to increase the convenience of trips in railway vehicles causes that train operators and manufacturers focus on reducing the noise level which is sensed by passengers. In this paper, first the state of modeling acoustic noise in cab train is discussed and natural frequencies and acoustic mode shapes are derived and then formulation of acoustic pressure in the cab will be o...

Active Structural Acoustic Control of Machine Enclosures

Vibrating machinery such as pumps, generators and compressors normally use passive insulation materials to reduce sound radiation. This paper provides a practical examination of possible solutions to active control of machine enclosures that reduces the radiated sound intensity from the enclosure to the environment. The results show that a combination of simple sky-hook type feedback controller...
