20 Engineering at the new NVH
frontier COVER STORY
Electrification brings new benchmarks, tools and challenges to the
ongoing battle with noise, vibration and harshness.
26 Hydrogen storage in a box!
HYDROGEN STORAGE
Cylindrical tanks no longer are the only solution for storing highpressure
hydrogen gas. The future is looking decidedly square -
and better for vehicle range and packaging.
28 A connected approach to auxiliary
battery control ELECTRIFICATION
An 'intelligent' systems strategy ensures that an electrified vehicle's
auxiliary battery has enough energy to meet basic loads, whether
the vehicle is running or in park.
ON THE COVER
Increasingly sophisticated NVH testing couples advanced physical-testing
techniques with new software simulation tools to comprehensively cover
the spectrum of noise and vibration sources. This test rig is arranged in
FEV's test facility in Auburn Hills, Mich. (Cover image: FEV)
