The main purpose of this research is to reduce the transmitted engine vibration to the subframe structure via improving the mobility of engine mountings. In fact, the main focus is on the geometry opt....
The direct injection common rail technology coupled with variable geometry turbocharger on the modern diesel engine has improved the diesel engine performance (power and torque) greatly as compared to....
Vibration tests and modal analysis method were used to recognize cause of steering wheel's idle shaking, it was found that the steering wheel's operating modal was close to engine's second order excit....
The authors have developed a measurement technique using a new digital telemeter which measures the piston secondary motion as ensuring high accuracy while under the operation. We applied this new dig....
This paper presents a method and corresponding software implementation for powertrain (PWT) mounting system layout design for decoupling rigid-body modes in the torque roll axis system. The novelty in....
The engine fault detection problem is of special interest in the automotive industry due to its direct implementation in the diagnostics of typical engine problems as well as engine preventive and pre....
In this research, the interior noise of a passenger car was measured, and the sound quality metrics including sound pressure level, loudness, sharpness, and roughness were calculated. An artificial ne....
With growing demands for better fuel economy and reduced carbon emissions there is a need for smaller and more fuel efficient engines. At the same time, to improve passenger comfort there are also dem....
The contributions of vibration sources in a gasoline direct-injection (GDI) engine are identified by simulating a two input-one output model. A partial coherence function between two inputs and one ou....
Multiple-ribbed V belts have been widely used in automotive accessory drive systems to transmit power from crankshaft to power steering pump, alternator, and air conditioning (A/C) compressor. Overloa....
