TECHNIQUES OF STRUCTURAL VIBRATION ANALYSIS APPLIED TO DIESEL ENGINE NOISE REDUCTION

This paper presents several techniques used to define quantitatively the problem of excessive noise through engine structural vibration. These techniques include both operating engine tests and bench tests. In addition, analytical techniques are shown which give a better understanding of how the critical components within the engine cause this vibration. Through the use of analytical and experimental techniques, examples illustrate practical solutions for diesel engine noise reduction.
