Automotive NVH 2014

The advent of electrical, electronic and mechatronic fields have demonstrated the potential of not just reducing noise and vibration in vehicle using active technologies, but has also generated the scope of introducing sounds and vibrations that could drive positive emotional response. This is a major requirement for high performance cars and is also growing its importance in the field of mass-produced vehicles.

This conference will seek to explore the latest challenges in this area and unique solutions that industry leaders are employing to move things forward.

We hope that you can join us in Crewe, the home of Bentley Motors Limited and help us make this event successful and regular in the automotive NVH calendar.
