Understand advanced materials for better NVH performance

Material choices have a major impact on NVH performance and perceived quality. A strong understanding of advanced materials is essential for fast, responsive product development. Simcenter Testlab enables accurate characterization sound absorption and sound transmission loss using tube- or room‑based testing. Quantified material properties feed simulation models, enable reliable comparison of material variants, and improve model accuracy—supporting faster development cycles and more confident design decisions.

Accurately, intuitively and quickly visualize sound sources

Finding the source of noise in your vehicle is difficult to achieve with the human ear. But with Simcenter Testlab and Simcenter sound source localization solutions, you can visually pinpoint exactly the source of a dominant noise. Modular digital and analog microphone arrays support a wide range of applications from acoustic troubleshooting to sound power ranking and aero-acoustic wind tunnel testing. By knowing the precise source of noise lets you immediately begin determining corrective measures to reduce or eliminate the noise.

Improve wind tunnel aero‑acoustic testing efficiency

As vehicles electrify, wind noise becomes a primary NVH concern, increasing reliance on wind tunnel testing. With test time and cost at a premium, engineers must extract maximum insight from every run.Simcenter Testlab supports high channel‑count, multi‑technology aero‑acoustic measurements on a single platform, enabling richer data capture and deeper insight per test. By integrating complementary methods, engineers improve productivity, reliability, and vehicle aero‑acoustic performance—making the most of valuable wind tunnel time.
