Road noise is one of the dominant contributions to a vehicle interior noise when driving below highway speed. In this paper, we present the process we developed to support automotive OEMs with road noise engineering during vehicle design and development. The process allows to auralize,
in a driving simulator for NVH, road noise CAE simulation results obtained from coupled multibody, structural finite-elements and acoustic models. With this process, engineers can now listen to a vehicle sound and perform interactive sound quality evaluation for road noise even before physical
prototypes are available.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
