The number of control cabins installed in industry has increased considerably during the last few years. Most cabins installed nowadays show a satisfactory noise reduction in the frequency range above 500 Hz. The effect of noise damping however shows a gradual decrease for lower frequencies. The present paper is a description of the distribution of low frequency noise in different types of control cabins installed in typical low frequency noise environments in steel plants and the machine building industry. Measurements were made in 20 control cabins, constructed of metal and stone Measurements of sound pressure levels in octave bands were made inside and outside the cabins. The sound pressure level in octave bands in the low frequency range (4–31.5 Hz) inside the cabins was high and varied between 60–108 dB. This is probably due to the insufficient noise reduction for lower frequencies. In some control cabins there was an increased level of low frequency noise inside the cabin compared to the outside. In these control cabins sound pressure levels exceed the admissible values according to Polish standards. The increase of noise level within the low frequency range is considered to be based on resonances.

Phononic crystal is an artificial periodic structure in which elastic constants distribute periodically. In this paper, a two dimensional Bragg scattering phononic crystal was introduced into low-frequency noise reduction facility in the brake originally. Through the theoretical analysis by using Plane-wave Expansion Method to obtain the band diagram of a phononic crystal with holes periodically arranged in the 45 carbon steel plate and establishing the equivalent model in motion as the brake, we find an approximate bandgap between 0–5400Hz in the low-frequency range while the complete static bandgaps are distributed in the high-frequency range. It is believed that this kind of extremely low-frequency bandgap is due to the combination of the vibration of a single scatter and the interaction among scatters. In order to demonstrate the theory, contrastive experiment was taken. Noise spectrum diagram of the origin plate without holes was obtained in the first experiment. According to the equivalent model, the two dimensional air column/steel matrix phononic crystal structure in which filling rate was 40% was designed to apply in the test apparatus so that the frequency range (2050 to 2300Hz) of strong noise would be involved in this bandgap. Moreover, the noise in the whole frequency range (0–2550Hz) went down. This phenomenon proved that experiment result was coincident with theoretic consequence. The maximum decreasing amplitude of the noise reached as much as 25dB and the average decreasing amplitude was about 13dB from 2050 to 2300 Hz. In a word, this bandgap which is the combination effect of structure periodicity or the Mie scattering has an obvious extremely low-frequency characteristic in noise and vibration control in the brake.

This paper investigates the noise emissions from NACA 6412 asymmetric airfoil with different perforated extension plates at the trailing edge. The length of the extension plate is 10 mm, and the pore diameters ( D) considered for the study are in the range of 0.689 to 1.665 mm. The experiments are carried out in the flow velocity ( U∞) range of 20 to 45 m/s, and geometric angles of attack ( αg) values of −10° to +10°. Perforated extensions have an overwhelming response in reducing the low frequency noise (<1.5 kHz), and a reduction of up to 6 dB is observed with an increase in the pore diameter. Contrastingly, the higher frequency noise (>4 kHz) is observed to increase with an increase in the pore diameter. The dominant reduction in the low frequency noise for perforated model airfoils is within the Strouhal number (based on the displacement thickness) of 0.11. The overall sound pressure levels of perforated model airfoils are observed to reduce by a maximum of 2 dB compared to the base airfoil. Finally, by varying the geometric angle of attack from −10° to +10°, the lower frequency noise is seen to increase, while the high frequency noise is observed to decrease.

The electrical activity of the brain recorded by EEG which used to detect different types of diseases and disorders of the human brain. There is contained a large amount of random noise present during EEG recording, such as artifacts and baseline changes. These noises affect the low -frequency range of the EEG signal. These artifacts hiding some valuable information during analyzing of the EEG signal. In this paper we used the FIR filter for removing low -frequency noise(<1Hz) from the EEG signal. The performance is measured by calculating the SNR and the RMSE. We obtained RMSE average value from the test is 0.08 and the SNR value at frequency(<1Hz) is 0.0190.

The acoustic absorption of granular aerogel layers with a granule sizes in the range of 2 to 40 μm is dominated by narrow-banded, high absorption regions in the low-frequency range and by reduced absorption values at higher frequencies. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of developing new, low-frequency noise reduction materials by layering granular aerogels with traditional porous sound absorbing materials such as glass fibers. The acoustic behavior of the layered configurations is predicted using the arbitrary coefficient method, wherein the granular aerogel layers are modeled as an equivalent poro-elastic material while the fibrous media and membrane are modeled as limp media. The analytical predictions are verified using experimental measurements conducted using the normal incidence, two-microphone impedance tube method. Our results show that layered configurations including granular aerogels, fibrous materials, and limp membranes provide enhanced sound absorption properties that can be tuned for specific noise control applications over a broad frequency range.
