Low-Mid frequency volume acceleration sound source

Volume acceleration sound sources are sophisticated acoustic excitation devices, capable of producing high levels of sound or noise as well as an accurate real time signal the acoustic output. Our low-mid frequency source, the E-LMFVVS, covers the 20 to 800 Hz frequency band, although a special version for 25 to 1000 Hz can be made on request.

This source is typically used for cabin vibro-acoustic modal analysis, TPA analysis of structure borne or airborne contributions, Frequency Based Sub-structuring, etc.

If you think this sound source looks like a dummy, you are right. The E-LMFVVS was deliberately made to imitate the acoustic properties of a person at low frequencies. And because most applications are for seat positions, the device is optimized for quick positioning on a seat with the active center at ear location.

The unique properties of this low-mid frequency source include compact, human body diffraction simulation, omni-directional, time stable calibration, high noise levels. These features make this device extremely accurate and efficient for the analysis of transport vehicles like cars, vans, trucks, busses, trains and aircraft.

Applications

Vibro-acoustic modal analysis
Mostly used in cabins of cars, trucks, train, and aircraft, but sometimes in other locations like the engine compartment, or the space underneath a vehicle. Typical instrumentation for modal analysis includes Scadas III : 16 channels or more, two E-LMFVVS on two seats, several microphones in the cabin space and several accelerometers on the body panels and structure. The software includes F-mon, acoustic modal, and modal design.With this method you get scaled modal models, a level very fast instrumentation, and can attain a high excitation.

Vibro-acoustic Transfer Path Analysis
Mostly used on suspension systems of cars and trucks, but sometimes on aircraft, trains, stationary machinery, etc. Typical instrumentation includes Scadas III : 16 channels or more, two E-LMFVVS on two seats and a large number of accelerometers at the suspension supports. The software used is F-mon, TPA and RMA.

Apart from fast instrumentation, you can expect more then sufficient excitation, efficient parallel measurements and a large number of vibro-acoustic FRF.

ASQ, panel contribution analysis
Used mostly on cabins of cars and trucks, sometimes on trains, aircraft, machinery, and defense material. Typical instrumentation includes Scadas III; 16 channels or more, two E-LMFVVS on two seats and a large number of accelerometers on all cabin panels. Typical software used for panel contribution analysis is F-mon, TPA, and RMA.

Advantages include more than sufficient excitation, fast instrumentation, efficient parallel measurement of a large number of acoustic FRF.

ASQ, source contribution analysis
Mostly used on drive-lines and power-trains of cars and trucks, but sometimes used on exhaust systems, intake systems, tyres/tires, etc. Typical instrumentation includes Scadas III: 16 channels or more, two E-LMFVVS on two seats, and a large number of microphones on all potential sources. Typical software includes F-mon, TPA, and RMA.

Advantages include more than sufficient excitation, fast instrumentation, efficient parallel measurement of a large number of acoustic FRF.
