In this paper, the influence of the decoupler-cage structure on the hitting noise of the hydraulic mount is studied, the abnormal noise of the hydraulic mount is mainly caused by the collision impact between the decoupler and the cage, the hitting noise was simulated and evaluated using calculation and experiment. a finite element model of the collision impact between the decoupler and the cage is developed, and an explicit finite element analysis is performed to obtain the time history of the vibration acceleration of the model, which is used as the boundary condition of the noise analysis. The acoustic boundary element method is used to analyze the impact noise of the decoupler-cage, and the frequency domain distribution characteristics of the impact sound pressure are obtained. The influence of different decoupler structure on the hitting noise is studied, and the recommended values for each parameter for a structure are given.

The mount bracket is an important part of the mount system, and its dynamic characteristics will affect dynamic characteristics of the mount system, which means it will affect NVH(Noise, Vibration, Harshness) of the vehicle. Based on the large error between the test result and the finite element analysis(FEA) result, the dynamic finite element model of the mount bracket can be modified from the material parameters and the equivalent boundary of the bolt joint. In this paper, a method to identify the parameters of the mount bracket model by combining modal test, FEA, and the mathematical optimization model was presented. Firstly, based on HyperStudy platform, the optimization objective was minimizing the natural frequency error between FEA and free mode test, and the material parameters of the bracket to be identified were used as design variables to build the optimization function. The global response surface method was used for iteration to complete the identification.
