  2. Active noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

    Noise control is an active or passive means of reducing sound emissions, often for personal comfort, environmental considerations, or legal compliance. Active noise control is sound reduction using a power source. Passive noise control is sound reduction by noise-isolating materials such as insulation, sound-absorbing tiles, or a muffler rather ...

  3. Active sound design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_sound_design

    Active sound design is an acoustic technology concept used in automotive vehicles to alter or enhance the sound inside and outside of the vehicle. Active sound design (ASD) often uses active noise control and acoustic enhancement techniques to achieve a synthesized vehicle sound. The typical implementations of ASD vary, from amplifying or ...

  4. Noise, vibration, and harshness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise,_vibration,_and...

    Noise, vibration, and harshness ( NVH ), also known as noise and vibration ( N&V ), is the study and modification of the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and trucks. While noise and vibration can be readily measured, harshness is a subjective quality, and is measured either via jury evaluations, or with ...

  5. Active vibration control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_vibration_control

    Active vibration control is the active application of force in an equal and opposite fashion to the forces imposed by external vibration. With this application, a precision industrial process can be maintained on a platform essentially vibration-free. Many precision industrial processes cannot take place if the machinery is being affected by ...

    Screen size varies from 5-inch to 7-inch for the double Din car stereos. Active noise control and noise synthesis. The automobile sound system may be part of an active noise control system which reduces engine and road noise for the driver and passengers.

  7. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

    Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several basic ways to reduce sound: increasing the distance between source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using active antinoise sound generators.

  8. Active Body Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_Body_Control

    Active Body Control, or ABC, is the Mercedes-Benz brand name used to describe electronically controlled hydropneumatic suspension. [1] [2] This suspension combines a high level of ride quality with control of the vehicle body motions, and therefore virtually eliminates body roll in many driving situations including cornering, accelerating, and ...
