    International Challenge of Noise Limit Values to Chinese Typical Light-duty Vehicles
    2014, 34(1): 1-5.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-1335.2014.01.001
    Abstract ( )   PDF (885KB) ( )  

    UN ECE will reach a decision for the limit values of regulation ECE R51 / 03 series - noise emitted by accelerating motor vehicles in 2013, and the Chinese typical light-duty vehicles will meet serious challenge. And the main reason is that there are obvious differences of the light-duty vehicle type between China and Europe, and the Europe Union has not fully considered the Chinese typical light-duty vehicles when collecting data for the limit values. This paper amplifies the specific discrepancy on the noise emission level between Chinese typical light-duty vehicles and passenger cars, according to the verification test results, puts forward the sub-categories method which is more fit for the condition of China, and also suggests that the domestic manufacturers should take part in the amending of ECE regulations like Japanese companies and avoid the technical barriers.

    In the research of ship vibration transfer path analysis and structure response monitoring, the characteristics of machine force are always needed. As the inherent complexity of the machine and the structure onto which it is mounted, the real-time measurement becomes very difficult. On the basis of inherent connection between structural response and exciting force, the real exciting forces can be instead by pseudo-forces, which exactly reproduces the response caused by the noise generating mechanism inside the source. In this paper a regularization technique based on partial optimization is introduced into the pseudo-force model to solve the ill-conditioned problem. An experiment was carried out on a pump mounted on ship, and the results showed that the structural response reconstruction errors with partial regularization method was effectively reduced.

    To measure the aerodynamic forces in wind tunnel, the test model is often mounted by a supporting beam axially inserted from backside. The test object and supporting, as a structure, is flexible with low natural frequencies. In transonic testing with a large angle of attack, fluctuation pressure by the airflow distributes in low frequency bandwidth, and high magnitude vibration with low frequency in vertical plane is easily generated for resonance of the flexible structure excited by the pressure. This vibration would contaminate the test data and even damage the instruments in a fatigue manner. For one test model with back supporting beam, the FEM model was generated and then reduced through balancing and modal truncation methods; An H∞ robust control method based on the flexible structure properties was applied to suppress the vibration. Simulations and analysis show this active vibration suppression solution is applicable and efficient, especially for large complex flexible structures.

Because the vehicle conditions and road conditions in China are different from those in foreign countries, the direct application of the foreign models in China will reduce its accuracy. It is very difficult to obtain local model because of the demanding experimental site and the huge demand of the number of samples. Besides, the model based on standard experiment may not be suitable to the complex urban traffic flow. This paper proposed a simple and rapid method to establish a model accords with the characteristics of the local urban transport, which calculates the noise of the observation points, and then determines the optimal model parameters by optimizing algorithm. This method inversed the equivalent sound level to obtain the single-car sound power level model, which not only contained a wealth of samples, but also saved the measuring time. In this paper, a model was established and validated based on actual measured traffic data in Beijing, and the results showed that this method was fast, easy and with high accuracy.

    2014, 34(1): 155-159. 
    Abstract ( )   PDF (1809KB) ( )  
    The main disadvantages of beamforming technique are a poor spatial resolution at low frequency, and the spatial aliasing problem at high frequency, leading to the identification of false sources. For steady sound source, this paper introduces two kinds of microphone array moving methods, which include changing the position of the microphone array center and adjust the measurement distance to improve the resolution in low-frequency sound source identification, and rotating the array for multiple measurements to reducing the spatial aliasing problem in high-frequency sound source identification so as to achieve the goal of using less microphone to enhance the performance of sound source identification. The effectiveness of this method is verified by simulation and experiment.

    Abstract ( )   PDF (1084KB) ( )  

    According to the cyclic stationarity characteristics of the vibration signals from automobile transmission shaft with fault and the situation that it is hard to obtain enough fault samples, fault diagnosis method of transmission shaft based on second-order cyclic spectrum and support vector machine (SVM) was proposed. Firstly, the vibration signals of transmission shaft with imbalance fault were collected from the stimulant fault experiment of vehicle, and then modulation source was separated by calculating the second-order cyclic spectrum and scanning cyclic frequency. It turned up the value of cyclic spectrum in the half shaft frequency obviously increased along with the growing imbalance fault. Therefore, these amplitudes were selected as eigenvectors. Finally, with the help of SVM, the fault patterns were exactly identified. The results show that this method has high accuracy in fault diagnosis of transmission shaft in the case of a small quantity of samples.

Focusing on the actual situation of the overlapping of non-Stationary and non-Gaussian characteristics in vibration signals generated by vehicles (wheeled vehicles, tracked vehicles), the 1(1/2)-dimensional spectrum is studied and theoretically proved to be able to eliminate Gaussian white noise or colored noise in vehicle induced ground motion signals, and a feature extraction method combining the 1(1/2)-dimensional spectrum analysis and wavelet packet energy spectrum is proposed to distinguish different vehicle targets. The joint eigenvectors of 1(1/2)-dimensional spectrum and wavelet packet energy spectrum are first constructed in the time-frequency domain, and then an error training BP neural network pattern classifier is established to identify the two types of vehicle signal. The results of field experiments show that this method can effectively and accurately identify ground vibration signals.

    Abstract ( )   PDF (1252KB) ( )  

    The combination of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and robust independent component analysis (RobustICA) is proposed to identify diesel engine noise sources from single-channel noise signal. Instinct mode functions (IMF) after correlation analysis integrated with original noise signal are used as virtual channels of RobustICA. With the advantages of RobustICA, single-channel observed noise signal can be separated into several original independent components without filtering processing. Separation result of simulated signals identified the effectiveness of the method proposed above. Applied to a four-cylinder-diesel-engine noise signal analysis, combustion noise and piston slap noise can be identified combined with Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and priori knowledge of diesel engine.

    Noise Control at the Vents of Heat Pump Units of Bars
    2014, 34(1): 213-218.  DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-1335.2014.01.048
    Abstract ( )   PDF (1113KB) ( )  

    The fans of heat pump units in the bars have big-air quantity. Strong noise with high dB value and wide frequency band is generated while the units are running. Except that, there are lots of sensitive points around the bars, so it’s difficult to achieve a good effect of noise reduction in a limited space. At present, most of projects make use of dissipative or single resistance - dissipative muffler to control the air-outlet noise in our country, but the results are not ideal. Combining with the engineering example, spectrum analysis and expansion muffler theory, putting three expansion chambers with different length and different expansion ratio in series (instead of single expansion chamber), and also using the dissipative muffler, a new type of dissipative - resistance muffler was designed in a limited space, which makes the air-outlet noise of heat pump units be reduced by about 18dB (A). This muffler is not only simple, economical, reliable and advanced, but also save space, so it has high practical value.
