Vehicle noise and vibration refinement (Woodhead Publishing in Mechanical Engineering)

Vehicle design holds high standards of noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) performance.  Therefore, refinement is one of the main engineering and design attributes to be addressed when developing new vehicle models and components. This book provides a review of noise and vibration refinement principles, methods, advanced experimental and modelling techniques and palliative treatments necessary in the process of vehicle design, development and integration in order to meet noise and vibration standards. The contributors provide case studies from their collective experience working for major automotive companies.
