Abstract Currently, the inexorable trend toward the electrification of automobiles has heightened the prominence of road noise within overall vehicle noise. Consequently, an in-depth investigation into automobile road noise holds substantial practical importance. Previous research endeavors have predominantly centered on the formulation of mechanism models and data-driven models. While mechanism models offer robust controllability, their application encounters challenges in intricate analyses of vehicle body acoustic-vibration coupling, and the effective utilization of accumulated data remains elusive. In contrast, data-driven models exhibit efficient modeling capabilities and can assimilate conceptual vehicle knowledge, but they impose stringent requirements on both data quality and quantity.

Abstract Vehicle interior noise has emerged as a crucial assessment criterion for automotive NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness). When analyzing the NVH performance of the vehicle body, the traditional SEA (Statistical Energy Analysis) simulation technology is usually limited by the accuracy of the material parameters obtained during the acoustic package modeling and the limitations of the application conditions. In order to effectively solve these shortcomings, based on the analysis of the vehicle noise transmission path, a multi-level objective decomposition architecture of the interior noise at the driver’s right ear is established. Combined with the data-driven method, the ResNet neural network model… More >

Abstract The loss factors and their effects on the magnitude and frequency of resonance peaks in various mechanical systems are reviewed for acoustic, vibration, and vibration fatigue applications. The main trends and relationships were obtained for linear mechanical models with hysteresis damping. The well-known features (complex module of elasticity, total loss factor, etc.) are clarified for practical engineers and students, and new results are presented (in particular, for 2-DOF in-series models with hysteresis friction). The results are of both educational and practical interest and may be applied for NVH analysis and testing, mechanical and aeromechanical design, and noise and vibration control… More >
