  • Noise and Vibration Conference & Exhibition
    Noise and Vibration Conference & Exhibition Technical Session Schedule As of 06/16/2019 07:41 pm Monday, June 10 Engineering for Automotive Pass-by and Minimum Noise Requirements (WKSP) Session Code: NVCWK7 Room Ballroom C Session Time: 2:40 p.m. Pass-by Noise regulations are evolving as they are adapted to match constantly changing vehicles and driving conditions. Test methods are becoming more complex with a change in the driving and vehicle conditions. Also, worldwide, the trend is towards a reduction in the maximum acceptable levels driven by latest regulations put in place in EU and Japan. Front loading pass-by noise engineering early during the vehicle development process is becoming ever necessary as OEMs are competing to reduce the vehicle development cycle and the time to bring new vehicles to market. During this workshop, we will present the engineering solutions available to support the vehicle development with a focus on noise requirements. After introducing the regulations for field pass-by noise, indoor pass-by noise and minimum noise for electric vehicles, we will present the challenges posed when trying to meet these regulations together with other internal or customer requirements for sound quality and performance. Organizers - Rabah Hadjit, Bruel & Kjaer Sound/Vib Meas A/S Presenters - Rabah Hadjit, Bruel & Kjaer Sound/Vib Meas A/S; Scott Hunt, Bruel & Kjaer North America Inc.; Douglas Moore, General Motors Monday, June 10 Fundamentals of Acoustical Materials & Vehicle Applications Workshop (WKSP) Session Code: NVCWK2 Room Ballroom C Session Time: 4:30 p.m. The Acoustical Materials Workshop will cover fundamentals of acoustical materials and basics of noise control for engineers who are new in the field of noise and vibration.

Seven instead of the previous six race weekends are on the 2016 calendar. There are two new and challenging venues – Zandvoort (NL) and Budapest (H), plus the round to be held as part of the program surrounding the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring. As before, two races will take place at every event, each lasting 30 minutes. Philipp Mondelaers as the new Project Leader continues Rolf Michl’s successful work. Mondelaers was involved in DTM engine development at Audi Sport until 2010 and in 2011 switched to vehicle development in the customer sport field.
