Improved technology from SenSound

Detroit-based SenSound L.L.C. announced Tuesday a release of what it says is new and improved technology that will allow engineers to fix noise and vibration problems. SenAH version 3.0 provides sound visualization, enabling users to see a three-dimensional representation of sound and its continuing vibrations. SenSound also announced the release of SenNS 3.0, a similar software technology for testing transient and non-stationary objects. SenSound says the new software features improved accuracy in reconstruction of the sound field generated by an object and the ability to identify the responsible vibrations. It also offers greater speed and ease of use and the ability to make quick comparisons between sound. It's used to investigate noise transmission through three-dimensional objects such as instrument panels, doors, pumps and heating and cooling units. An example of its practical use: The software has been used by auto designers to change the design and location of a dashboard that was actually acting as an amplifier for the noise of a fan. The technology was developed by Sean Wu, Charles DeVlieg Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Wayne State University.

SenSound will be exhibiting at the Automotive Testing Expo North America at the Novi Expo Center Oct. 27-29.
