CONSIDERATIONS ON ACTIVE REDUCTION NOISE, TREATMENT AND CONTROL DESIGN PERFORMANCE AT DIESEL GENERATOR
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2011, Vol 56, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper discusses the methodology and results of a noise audit and active control testing on a portable single-cylinder diesel generator. Using a large microphone array, a spectral intensity map of all external surfaces of the generator set was constructed from experimental measurements. Two primary noise sources were measured: a relatively directional high-frequency structurally-coupled engine component, and low-frequency fundamental exhaust firing-order harmonics. The lowfrequencies were reduced using the feed-forward Filtered-X LMS with a reference derived directly from the electrical generator coupled to the diesel engine.

ON THE LINEARIZATION OF EXPERIMENTAL HYSTERETIC LOOPS
In this paper is presented a linearization method developed on the basis of the experimental hysteresis loop, by considering the most general case, when there is no mathematical model associated with the hysteretic behav...
SONOELASTIC DETERMINATION OF THE KNEE CARTILAGE ELASTICITY
Sonoelasticity and Doppler imaging are applied in this paper to detect the damage process of the knee cartilage. The cartilage is a firm, thick, slippery tissue that acts as a protective cushion between bones. It is pres...
ON THE ACOUSTICS OF THE STICK-SLIP PHENOMENON
In this paper, the acoustics and friction of the stick-slip phenomenon is discussed. The interaction friction-vibration gives rise to oscillations within solids which frequently lead to radiation of sound to the surround...
THIN FILMS FLOW DRIVEN BY GRAVITY AND A SURFACE TENSION GRADIENT
The flow of a thin layer on a horizontal plate in the lubrication approximation is considered. The flow is driven simultaneously by gravity and some gradients of surface tension. These gradients imply a non-zero tangenti...
APPLICATION OF ELECTRONIC SPECKLE PATTERN INTERFEROMETRY TO MEASURE THERMAL STRAINS OF THIN LAYERED STRUCTURES
Applications of the Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) for the determination of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and thermal behaviour of a thin layered foils is investigated in this paper. A heati...
