High standards of NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) performance are expected
by consumers of all modern cars. Refinement is one of the main engineering and
design attributes to be addressed in the course of developing new vehicle models
and vehicle components. Written for students and engineering practitioners, this
is the first book to address automotive NVH. It will help readers to understand
and develop quieter, more comfortable cars. With chapters on the fundamentals of
acoustics and detailed coverage of practical engineering solutions for noise
control issues it is suitable for students of automotive engineering and
engineers who haven t been trained in acoustics, and will be an
