  • Identify global modes in BIW and TBIW models.
  • Interpret FRFs and transfer functions.
  • Evaluate sound pressure levels in Pa, dB, and dB(A).
  • Analyze results under different conditions, especially powertrain noise conditions such as WOT and IDLE.
  • Identify transfer paths using TPA.
  • Propose structural improvements to reduce vibration and noise.
  • Correlate CAE results with test results.
  • Prepare and present reports.
  • Investigate the root causes of peaks.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with other solvers, such as Abaqus or Nastran.
