Vibration & NVH

Dynamics-driven design validation to reduce resonance risk, improve durability and meet noise/vibration targets. We focus on realistic excitations, clear modal interpretation and actionable countermeasures.

Overview

Control resonance. Improve comfort. Protect durability.

Modal clarity • Excitation realism • Risk ranking • Clear actions
01

Modal analysis

Identify mode shapes, participation and resonance proximity to operating orders.

02

Harmonic response

Predict steady-state vibration levels under rotating machinery excitations and order content.

03

Transient dynamics

Shock/impact events, startups, step loads and time-domain scenarios.

04

Isolation & mounting

Rubber mounts, stiffness tuning, coupling to base-frame and interface management.

05

Risk ranking

Identify top risks (resonance, fatigue hot-spots, amplification paths) and prioritize actions.

06

Clear engineering outputs

Frequency targets, countermeasures, and a sign-off package with traceable assumptions.

Capabilities

What we can cover

Analysis types

  • Modal analysis (free-free / constrained, with realistic boundary conditions)
  • Harmonic response (order-based excitations, frequency sweeps)
  • Transient response (shock, impact, startup, step loads)
  • Random vibration / PSD-based (when applicable)
  • Frequency response functions (FRF) interpretation and correlation

Typical targets

  • Avoid resonance near operating speeds and harmonics
  • Reduce vibration at critical points (mounts, panels, brackets)
  • Improve durability by cutting dynamic stress amplification
  • Isolation tuning (stiffness, damping, mount layout)
  • NVH engineering actions with quantified impact

Deliverables

Outputs your team can act on

Technical report

Assumptions, boundary conditions, excitations, damping approach, results and recommendations.

Mode & risk summary

Key modes, resonance proximity, participation ranking and “what to fix first” list.

Countermeasure pack

Stiffness/damping/tuning recommendations with expected frequency shifts and response reduction.

Workflow

How we work

Step 1

Operating envelope

RPM range, orders/harmonics, excitation sources, target locations and acceptance criteria.

Step 2

Model & boundaries

Interfaces, mount stiffness, mass distribution and realistic constraints (not “over-fixed”).

Step 3

Solve & verification

Convergence checks, sensitivity review (mount stiffness/damping), and sanity checks vs expected physics.

Step 4

Actions & sign-off

Frequency targets, mitigation options and a practical action list with quantified benefit.
