Automotive NVH with Abaqus
Objective:
Vehicle NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) is typically perceived
as a reflection of vehicle quality. As a result, the primary goal
of NVH design is to optimize the energy absorption of the vehicle.
Large-scale linear dynamics is typically employed in NVH analysis.
This course focuses on applying the linear dynamics capabilities
in Abaqus to NVH-related simulation.
The topics include:
- Natural frequency extraction
- Sound radiation analysis (acoustics)
- Nonlinear preloading effects
- Brake squeal analysis
- Constraints and connections
- Material modeling and damping
- Substrutures
- Advanced NVH postprocessing (via plug-ins)
- Conversion of Nastran to Abaqus (optional)
Who should attend:
While this course is primarily intended for engineers with experience
using Abaqus, it does include appendix material to assist engineers
with knowledge of finite elements who are new to Abaqus and Abaqus/CAE.
Additional appendix material is included to provide guidance for
users translating Nastran models to Abaqus. Please contact the hosting
SIMULA office to learn if time has been allotted to cover the appendix
material during a particular offering of this seminar.
