This work was focused on the implementation of an active noise control strategy for an acoustic-structural coupled enclosure using structural-based virtual sensors. A virtual sensing system was developed to estimate the broadband sound pressure at virtual interior locations in the enclosure based on structural vibration measurement of its flexible structure, instead of using acoustic sensors. E...

The basic principle of feedforward noise cancellation for broadband active noise reduction is based on the availability of a reliable measurement of the noise source. Reliability is compromised in case the noise measurement is acoustically coupled to the actual active noise cancellation (ANC), as stability and performance of the feedforward compensation becomes ambiguous. This paper presents a ...

Monitoring ocean acoustic noise has been the subject of considerable recent study, motivated by the desire to assess the impact of anthropogenic noise on marine life. A combination of measuring ocean sound using an acoustic sensor network and modelling sources of sound and sound propagation has been proposed as an approach to estimating the acoustic noise map within a region of interest. Howeve...

Anthropogenic noise is debatably one of the most common threats to national parks' resources. Park visitors and workers generally suffer from adverse effects of noise from on- and off-road vehicles. The parks, studied here, are located in strictly urban areas, surrounded by streets with intense vehicle traffic. This study assesses the soundscape of urban parks in two cities of Odisha State, on ...

Much effort is put into minimizing noise in optical tweezers experiments because noise and drift can mask fundamental behaviours of, e.g., single molecule assays. Various initiatives have been taken to reduce or eliminate noise but it has been difficult to quantify their effect. We propose to use Allan variance as a simple and efficient method to quantify noise in optical tweezers setups.We app...

The field of surface wind blowing over the vast ocean areas is an important parameter for numerical models used for weather forecasts. Surface wind is currently measured from satellites. This provides necessary global coverage; however, measurements of high winds meet some difficulties due to weak dependency of the radarand radiometric signals on the wind velocity at high winds. In [1] a new me...

in this paper the interior noise level of a vehicle due to structural vibration, named structure borne noise, as a part of nvh analysis has been investigated. first structural analysis is performed and vibrational behavior of structure carried out due to power plant excitations. then interior acoustic cavity response for such excitation and resultant noise is determined. vibrational analysis is...

A novel sensor network source localization method based on acoustic energy measurements is presented. This method makes use of the characteristics that the acoustic energy decays inversely with respect to the square of distance from the source. By comparing energy readings measured at surrounding acoustic sensors, the source location during that time interval can be accurately estimated as the ...
