Müller. - Knowledge on use of simulation for project development

The NVH department of IDIADA is specialised in vehicle refinement projects covering exterior/interior noise and vibration control. The importance of vehicle refinement lies in the fact that vehicle manufacturers are continuously searching for ways in which vehicles can be improved and their production costs reduced. This involves studying and quantifying a wide range of noise sources from engine structure-borne noise to airborne tyre noise. Consumers now expect high levels of comfort and refinement from all passenger cars (and commercial vehicle, too). In response, car manufacturers are placing vehicle refinement at the heart of their product development strategies.

Integrated in the R&D team of the NVH department, the selected candidate will take over different support activities including:

• Project RD actions
• Data analysis
• Data results interpretation
• Project reporting

Current areas of research in the department are:

• In service dynamic response of vehicles (vibration)
• Interior and exterior noise control
• Sound quality in vehicles
• Squeak and rattle
• Traffic noise and road surface acoustic properties
• Aeroacoustic noise
• Advanced NVH technologies (Modal analysis, Transfer Path Analysis…)

Requeriments

• Specialization on Automotive is a plus
• Good computer skills
• Familiar with Advanced data processing techniques
• Team player and high motivation is requested

Requirements

Engineering degree in acoustics and vibration studies or related areas (intensive NVH scope)
