Significant Projects

Title 1: Global Modes identification in Powertrain Model

Client : Ford,UK

Tool used: HYPERMESH,NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview

Project Description:

This Project involves making the Powertrain

Model and run for Normal Modal analysis.Identify the Global Modes such as

Lateral Bending,Vertical Bending and Torsion.

Title 2: Mount Vibration for Wide Open throttle

Client : Ford,UK

Tool used: HYPERMESH,NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview,Eload,Matlab

Project Description:

This Project involves making the Powertrain

Model and run for FRF. Measure Mount vibration in the Powertrain Model for

2EO,4EO & 6EO.

Title 3: Combustion transfer function

Client : Ford,UK

Tool used: HYPERMESH, NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview,LMS Virtual Lab

Project Description:

This Project involves making BEM

Model.Measure Sound Pressure level from LMS virtual lab and plot combustion

transfer function Vs frequency

Title 4: Mount Pad/Bracket compliance analysis

Client : Ford,UK

Tool used: HYPERMESH, NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview,

Project Description:

This Project involves Compliance report on

the TRA Bracket.Plot the compliance Vs target.

Title 5: Acoustic Modeling

Client : Ford,FNA

Analysis Name: Cavity preparation and Modal Analysis

Tool used: HYPERMESH, ANSA,NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview

Project Description:

This Project involves extraction of shell

elements which are exposed to the interior air.

Then making the acoustic cavity with the required napos as per the client

and performing modal analysis to find the Longitudinal mode and lateral

mode for the acoustic cavity.

Title 6: Dynamic analysis of Trimbody

Client : Ford,FNA

Analysis Name: Noise transfer function(NTF), Vibration transfer

function(VTF), and Dynamic Stiffness(DSK)

Tool used: HYPERMESH, ANSA,NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview

Project Description:

This Project involves run of trimbody with

acoustic cavity with napos and finding out the noise level at the driver

and passenger ear point.Loading is done at the Mounting locations and

response taken at the acoustic napo points which is Noise transfer

function.Vibration is measured at the response points like Steering

column,seat location while loading is applied at the Mounting locations.In

Dynamic stiifness,Loading and measurement at the same location.

Title 7: ESS of Body in Prime

Client : Ford,FNA

Analysis Name: Equivalent Static Stiffness (ESS)

Tool used: HYPERMESH, ANSA,NASTRAN Solver,Hyperview

Project Description:

This Project involves run of Body in Prime

with dynamic properties,Loading is applied at the suspension mounting

locations and response is measure at the same location to get the

Equivalent Static Stiffness.
