RBEI: NVH Center Of Competence

Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH), is the study and optimization of the noise and vibration characteristics for improving
the system performance and comfort. RBEI provides NVH solutions for automotive products, aerospace applications,
industrial technologies and consumer goods.
NVH Center of Competence (CoC), equipped with state-of-the-art infrastructure intents to measure and correlate the test
results with advanced numerical/CAE techniques. NVH CoC also has the capabilities to perform a detailed root cause
analysis to improve the quality of products/processes.
