:: Main Objective
The Aim of the Action is to acquire, unify and coordinate necessary information about vehicle dynamics, drivability and noise, vibration & harshness (NVH) analysis technologies in view of the challenges posed by the hybrid and electric vehicles.
:: The Reasons of the Action are:
Noise has become one of the most important urban polluents;
World Health Organization: 20.000 deaths/yr in EU due to traffic noise;
(Hybrid)Electric Vehicles -(H)EV)- show new NVH challenges and existing knowledge in the domain is very fragmented;
ERTRAC (European Road
Transport Council) states the need for research and networking.
::Training School on
Sound and Noise Maps Approach and MultiBody Systems Modelling in EV and HEV Vehicles
