Tortuosity, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length are three important parameters for estimating the acoustic performance of porous materials, and it is usually measured by ultrasonic measurement technology, which is costly. In this paper, a method for identifying the tortuosity, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length for the porous fiber materials mixed with kapok fiber and two kinds of other fiber materials is proposed. The tortuosity is calculated by using the porosity and high-frequency normal sound absorption coefficient of porous materials. According to the normal sound absorption coefficient curve of porous materials under plane wave incidence, viscous characteristic length and thermal characteristic length are identified through the Johnson-Champoux-Allard-Lafarge (JCAL) model and genetic algorithm by using the measured parameters, the calculated tortuosity and static thermal permeability.

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.

To reduce the noise in the frequency range of 100Hz~1000Hz, a metamaterial structure composed of lightweight frame, hard membrane-like material and added mass is proposed in this paper. The advantage of this structure is that it is lightweight and the membrane-like material does not need to be stressed in advance. Finite element method (FEM) and experiment are used to investigate the sound transmission loss (STL) performance of the metamaterial structure. The results show that the peak STL is caused by the local resonance of the added mass and the membrane-like material. The valley versus frequency results from the resonance frequencies of metamaterial structure, and it is divided into three resonance frequencies: resonance frequencies from added mass, membrane-like material and frame.

Electric vehicle motors have the characteristics of fast torque response, large amplitude, and braking feedback torque. Therefore, the excitation of the electric vehicle powertrain has obvious transient impact characteristics, which put forward new requirements for the design of the mounting system. This article carried out the real vehicle test of rapid acceleration and rapid deceleration. A 12-degree-of-freedom nonlinear dynamic model of the electric vehicle mounting system is established. The model is used to calculate the vibration acceleration of the active side and the passive side of the mount, and compared with the test value to verify the correctness of the simulation model. The impact degree, the maximum pitch angle of the powertrain, and the longitudinal acceleration of the powertrain centroid are used as evaluation indicators to analyze the transient response of the electric vehicle mounting system under rapid acceleration and rapid deceleration conditions.
