Noise :
Vibration perceived audibly and characterized as sensations of
pressure by the ear.
Vibration :
Perceived tactually (at vehicle occupant interface points of
steering column, seats, etc.
Harshness :
Related to transient nature of vibration and noise associated with
abrupt transition in vehicle motion. It could be perceived both
tactually and audibly
Basic Concepts
Vibration sources are characterized by their time and frequency
domain characteristics
All mass-elastic systems have natural frequencies.
For linear system these frequencies are constant (related only
to the mass and stiffness distribution)
Non-linear effects require special treatments.
For one frequency, a system vibrates in a particular way, depicted
by the relative amplitude and phase at various locations modes of
vibration
Vibration Control
Control at source
Engine firing and reciprocating unbalance combine to produce a
complex source of vibration which varies with engine operating
conditions
Reciprocating unbalance arises at each cylinder because of the
fluctuating inertia force associated with the mass at each piston
no such thing as perfect balance
