Electric mobility
Rethinking vibroacoustics
Whether car, bike, yacht or air taxi: electric motors are quieter than combustion engines – but not silent. Their tonal, high-frequency noise components are often perceived as annoying by users. What's more: creaking, humming, whistling or howling from other noise sources are no longer masked and come to the fore in an unpleasant way. A coherent product in line with new legislation and innovative mobility concepts is crucial for a positive user experience and thus for economic success.
New phenomena - new procedures
To derive concrete development goals for the overall system and for components, their interaction must be understood, simulated and evaluated.
This is the recipe for success:
- Understand customer expectations
- Identify and optimize the operating conditions relevant to the user experience
- Develop AVAS sounds that comply with differing local legislation
- Use “Active Sound Design” to achieve a balance of physical and synthetic sounds suiting the brand
A comprehensive understanding of vibroacoustics
Our silent measurement technology in combination with specific and standardized analyses – including tonality – enables the evaluation of all vibroacoustic phenomena in e-mobility.
Understand your customers' expectations with our user-centric solutions and services such as jury testing and individual user studies.
Save prototypes by frontloading: Make the impact of operating strategies, design changes, AVAS sounds and active sound designs perceptible right from early development phases – with our interactive NVH simulator.
