Reducing Noise and Vibration of Hydraulic Hybird and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles. Phase III Final Report

摘要

The University of Toledo University Transportation Center (UT-UTC) has identified hybrid vehicles as one of the three areas of the research. The activities proposed in this research proposal are directed towards the noise, vibration, and harshness (VH) solutions for hybrid vehicles. The soaring fuel prices require imperious steps in developing alternate propulsion technologies. The design and development of hybrid vehicles is a critical issues for an economy dependent on an efficient, fast, and secure transportatiion system. This proposal seeks to study the NVH problem of the hybrid vehicles and to introduce isolation mount ot overcome these issues.
