Wave phenomenon (波動現象)


Sound wave (音波)


= sonic wave and acoustic wave
= sound or sound wave (physics): vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid
= sound (physiology): the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain ⇒ noise

Wave model of sound (音の波モデル)

Longitudinal waves
wave Transverse waves

sound pressure (音圧) p (hPa), = sound pressure at crest
sound pressure effective value (音圧実効値) = p/√(2)

Sound energy density, w (音響エネルギー密度)

= sound density
= sound energy per unit volume (Pa)

w = pv/c

v: particle velocity in the direction of propagation
c: speed of sound

Frequency (Hz)
0 - Infrasound (with body resonance) - 10
infrasonic range (超低周波域)
10 - Infrasound or infrasonic waves (超低周波/可聴下音) - 20
20 - noise (defined by METI) - 100
20 - Low frequency noise (低周波騒音) - 200
200 - Non-low frequency audible noise (非低周波可聴騒音) - 20K
ultrasonic range (超音波領域)
20K < Ultrasound or ultrasonic waves (超音波)

Fig. The frequency spectrum of sound and its nomenclature. The definition is slightly different among the countries

Three elements of sound (音3要素)

a) (Tone) pitch (音程)
b) Tone (音色)
= tone quality, tone timbre, tone color
Overtone, or harmonics (harmonic sound) (倍音)
c) Loudness (音量)
Sound intensity
Def. Sound pressure (音圧)
Def. Sound pressure level (SPL, 音圧レベル), Lp (unit: decibel, dB)

Lp = 10·log10(p2/p02)

p: effective value of sound pressure (音圧実効値)
p0: reference sound pressure (基準音圧)

= 2 × 10-5 Pa (= 20 μPa)

Def. G-weighted sound pressure level (特性音圧レベル), LG

defined by ISO 7196
sensurous amplitude of sound evaluating low-frequency noise
LG = 10·log10(pG2/p02)

pG: effective value of G-weighted sound pressure

[ noise stress ]

Noise (騒音)

≈ unwanted sound
an undesirable component that obscures a wanted signal
Environmental noise: an accumulation of noise pollution wave
Fig. Low-frequency noise is derived from many potential sources, e.g., wind power, in everyday life.

Electromagnetics (electromagnetism, 電磁気学)


Electromagnetic field = magnetic field (磁場) + electric field (電場)
Def. magnetic field (磁場): a field around a magnet or something magnetic, in which it has a force to attract objects, such as electric charges, electric currents and magnetic materials, to itself
Def. electric(al) field (電場): a physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles where positive and negative particles are reacting with each other

Electromagnetic spectrum (電磁スペクトル)

Fig. The electromagnetic energy spectrum
The entire range of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, most of which are not detectable by the human eye except in visible spectrum from ca 400-700 nm. Wavelengths shorter than the visible light contain large quantities of energy being harmful to living materials.
