Sound absorption performance can significantly affect working conditions for operators of commercial vehicles. At CVG’s R&D Center, the Impedance Tube material testing system is capable of characterizing a variety of acoustical properties of materials. These properties are becoming increasingly relevant for design use and predicting, through simulation, the sound absorption performance of materials used for trim products.
