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 havent been trained in acoustics, and will be an important reference for practicing engineers in the motor industry. The first book devoted to the refinement of noise and vibration in automobiles Combines a detailed explanation of the fundamentals of acoustics and the science behind vehicle noise and vibration with practical tips and know-how for noise and vibration control. Based on real world experience with a variety of automotive companies including Ford, BMW and Nissan 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aAutomobiles$xNoise 650 0$aAutomobiles$xVibration 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750661291$z9780750661294$w(OCoLC)56540976 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750661294$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13653519$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003238409707536 996 $aVehicle refinement$91212937 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$genk$h0$i0
