Chassis-Borne Noise Analysis

Chassis-Borne Noise Analysis

The analysis of chassis-borne noise is a critical aspect in the development and quality assurance of automotive NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) performance. Chassis-borne noise refers to vibrations transmitted through the vehicle’s frame from its suspension system or drivetrain components into other parts of the car. This phenomenon can significantly affect passenger comfort and overall driving experience.

Understanding chassis-borne noise is crucial for automotive manufacturers as it directly impacts a vehicle's NVH performance, which is one of the key factors influencing customer satisfaction. In this context, Eurolab specializes in providing comprehensive chassis-borne noise analysis services that help our clients identify and mitigate issues related to structural vibrations within vehicles.

The process involves using advanced equipment such as accelerometers attached directly onto various components of a vehicle's chassis to measure displacement, velocity, and acceleration signals. These measurements are then analyzed to determine the frequency content and modal characteristics contributing to unwanted noise levels. By isolating these sources early in the design phase, engineers can make informed decisions about material selection, structural modifications, or component redesigns aimed at reducing unwanted noise.

It is important to note that accurate measurement of chassis-borne noise requires precise placement of sensors on specific locations along the vehicle structure where potential issues are most likely to occur. Proper calibration procedures must also be followed before conducting any tests so as not to introduce errors into data collection processes. Additionally, environmental factors such as road surface conditions play a significant role in influencing measured results; therefore, controlled testing environments like those provided by Eurolab are essential for obtaining reliable and repeatable measurements.

Through our expertise in this field, we ensure that all aspects of chassis-borne noise analysis are thoroughly addressed during each project. Our goal is to provide clients with actionable insights they can use to improve their products' NVH performance while meeting regulatory requirements set forth by relevant standards like ISO 16734.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between chassis-borne noise analysis and other types of NVH tests?
Chassis-borne noise analysis focuses specifically on vibrations transmitted through the vehicle’s frame, whereas other NVH tests may concentrate more broadly on overall sound quality or specific frequencies within certain bands. Chassis-borne noise is particularly important for addressing structural issues that could lead to discomfort experienced by passengers.
How long does it take to complete a chassis-borne noise analysis?
The duration varies depending on the complexity of the vehicle being tested and the extent of required analysis. Typically, our team can provide preliminary results within one week after starting the project, with final reports available between two weeks to a month.
Do you offer training sessions for staff involved in chassis-borne noise testing?
Yes, we do provide tailored training programs designed specifically for your team’s needs. These sessions cover everything from basic theory to hands-on practice with our state-of-the-art equipment.
What kind of data can I expect from a chassis-borne noise analysis?
You will receive comprehensive reports detailing the frequency content and modal characteristics contributing to unwanted noise levels. We also provide recommendations for improving NVH performance based on our findings.
Can you guarantee compliance with all applicable standards?
Absolutely! Our services are fully compliant with international standards such as ISO 16734 and others relevant to automotive NVH testing. Compliance is ensured through rigorous quality control measures throughout every stage of the process.
What kind of equipment do you use for chassis-borne noise analysis?
We utilize a range of high-precision instruments including accelerometers, data acquisition systems, and specialized software tools. These are all selected based on their suitability for capturing accurate measurements across different types of surfaces.
