The Noise, Vibration, and Harshness and Experimental Mechanics Laboratory (NVHEM Lab) focuses on analytical and experimental research in structural and acoustic systems. The lab is equipped with measurement tools such as strain-gages, accelerometers and state-of-the-art digital image correlation. The lab also is equipped with several software programs for finite element modeling, image processing, numerical analysis, and acoustic and vibration modeling.  

Research topics include:

  • NVH
  • finite element analysis
  • modal analysis
  • sound and acoustic analysis
  • structural health monitoring
  • tire and vehicle dynamics
