Academic year 2020/2021
Supervisor: prof. Ing. Pavel Novotný, Ph.D.  
Supervising institute: ÚADI all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: English
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course is to make students familiar with state-of-the-art of noise and vibration and enable the solution of various problems of motor vehicles by computational and experimentational methods.
Learning outcomes and competences:
The course gives students the opportunity to learn about current computational models, applied at motor vehicle development. Students will gain the knowledge about the up-date numerical methods applied for a solution of noise and vibration problems.
Prerequisites:
Matrix calculus, differential and integral calculus, differential equations. Kinematics, Dynamics and Strength of Materials. Fourier analysis and Fourier transformation.

Links to other subjects:
compulsory co-requisite: Tractors [QT]
Course contents:
In the course, the physical fundamentals of the vibrations and noise sources and propagation are presented. The course introduces analytical and numerical methods of vibration and noise description including experimental methods with subsequent application of these methods to selected problems of motor vehicles. Emphasis is placed on understanding the physical nature of vibrations and noise with subsequent measures to reduce negative effects. The issue is applied to selected cases occurring in technical practice, such as vehicles, powertrains or their components.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
Credit conditions are the ability to solve problems independently using software, independent elaboration of assigned tasks without serious deficiencies, fulfillment of tasks during continuous study control and participation in exercises.
Conditions for final examination are orientation in the physical nature of problems, orientation in analytical and numerical problem solving, knowledge with emphasis on understanding the issue, credit and achievement of the prescribed level of points in the final exam.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Attendance is monitored in exercises.
The form of replacement of missed lessons is solved individually with the guarantee person of the subject.
