NVH Director uses object-oriented approach and fully integrated software tools for full-vehicle analysis
TROY, Mich., Feb. 15, 2012 - Altair Engineering Inc., a leading global provider of simulation technology and engineering services, today announced the release of NVH Director, the first commercial software tool that makes full-vehicle noise-vibration-harshness (NVH) simulation possible in the most advanced and streamlined form.
Altair will demonstrate NVH Director during a live webinar held on Feb. 29 at 9 a.m. EST. To access more information and register for the webinar, visit http://www.altairhyperworks.com/NVHwebinar.
NVH Director employs Altair's HyperWorks suite of computer-aided engineering (CAE) tools in a fully integrated, user-friendly, customizable form to automate the tasks involved in NVH analysis. By integrating the entire process of meshing, assembly, loadcase setup, and post-processing, it dramatically reduces the full-vehicle NVH simulation time, freeing CAE engineers to focus on optimizing product design and performance.
The solution introduces a new object-oriented environment for true full-vehicle NVH simulation. This environment enables users to manage subsystem representations, 3D display, FE entity ID numbering, connection properties and assembly definition in a modularized manner for ease of handling and debugging.
NVH Director leverages advanced technologies, such as browser, connector, process manager, object-oriented assembly and model templates to achieve a superior user experience. It also includes highly specialized functionalities to simplify NVH simulation tasks, such as:
Meshing of the acoustic cavity and coarse display model
Subsystem model dynamics reduction to component mode synthesis (CMS) superelement and frequency response function (FRF) representations
Support for analysis using mixed FE and reduced representations
Templated lumped parameter models
Joints modeling using enhanced CBUSH elements
NVH local coordinate systems creation
Templated loadcase and guided, step-by-step, process-driven loadcase creation
Post-processing and diagnostics, with an integrated approach to visualizing results
"Traditionally, full-vehicle NVH simulation techniques have been proprietary processes, closely guarded by original-equipment manufacturers," said Anthony Norton, Altair's senior director, global automotive. "The time now has arrived for a comprehensive commercial product that combines all the most advanced features into one tool and that meets the changing needs of OEMs and the increasingly high expectations of consumers."
Altair's new solution advances NVH analysis by facilitating the modeling of all vehicle subsystems, including trimbody, powertrain, suspension, steering system and torque paths. Furthermore, it operates based on real-world events, directly simulating customer usage experience to drive physical-prototype development and to identify problems related to specific loadcases and response.
"One of the biggest challenges in full-vehicle simulation is dealing with modeling complexity," said Jianmin Guan, Altair's senior program manager for noise, vibration, and harshness. "NVH Director reduces the complexity by giving users the ability to manage their assembly in a modular fashion and providing highly specialized tools that have never before been available in any commercial simulation packages."
"NVH Director simplifies full-vehicle simulation," Guan noted. "It enables engineers to employ CAE to drive product design, with mathematical cause-effect relationships that generate a full understanding of physical root causes and with the ability to identify sensitive parameters through quick what-if studies. NVH Director clearly identifies the receiver of source-path vibrations, and the most effective solutions often come from reducing the source of vibrations. In the end, NVH Director significantly lessens physical testing by running many iterations in CAE simulation, and it improves the value of testing by helping the engineer learn more from simulation."
The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner."

"Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
