The main missions

• Self dependent product development for Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH) problem settings on exhaust systems (acoustics, dynamics, vibration), with emphasis to internal, customer and legal requirements. For this, testing as well as simulation activities have to be planned, conducted/coordinated and evaluated systematically
• Participation and technical (know-how and guiding) support in innovation as well as serial development projects
• Leading, coordination and execution of research (methodology) projects in order to increase the NVH know-how within FECT as well as the optimization of new and existing development tools
• Creation of process and work instructions based on those developed methodologies
• Creation of NVH training material based on those developed methodologies
• Participation in internal and external (customer) communications and presentations
• Investigation of the structural behaviour (dynamic) of exhaust component with the means of simulation (FEM, BEM) and various measurements techniques
• Developing standards of current measurement methods and procedures (e.g. acoustic, backpressure) for component evaluation in order to globally align those
• Developing new measurement methods (acoustic, flow dynamics) for component evaluation depending on internal and customer needs
• Creation of presentation materials
