On one hand, overheating can damage vehicle components and evaporate essential fluids. On the other, vibrations and noise create an unpleasant environment while undermining noise emission limits. Let’s find out more about the role played by vehicle sound and heat insulation with Prof. Dr. Bratzel from the Center of Automotive Management (CAM).
Prof. Dr. Bratzel, how important do you think acoustics will be when constructing tomorrow’s vehicles?
“Requirements for driver and passenger acoustics have steadily increased in recent years, especially with the growing importance of infotainment. In terms of exterior sound, pass-by noise tests are now clearly defined procedures in the vehicle development process and limits for noise emissions are being further tightened by EU regulations.
