Prediction and reduction in vehicle noise by frequency response function–based substructuring

The purpose of this study was to use a hybrid frequency response function–based substructuring synthesis method to predict the structure-borne noise of a vehicle frame resulting due to excitation by the engine and to develop a noise reduction method for optimizing the subframe model. The finite elem...
