  • About the Editor
    • Presents the up-to-date information on commonly found noise and vibration problems.
    • Deals with industrial and automotive noise and vibration, their measurement and control.
    • Provides a state-of-the-art introduction to active vibration control, active sound control, and active vibroacoustic control, respectively.

Vibration and noise are two interrelated terms in the  eld of mechanical engineering. Vibration is caused by unbalanced inertial forces and moments whereas noise is the result of such vibrations. Noise control or noise mitigation is a set of strategies to reduce noise pollution or to reduce the impact of that noise, whether outdoors or indoors. Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), also known as noise and vibration (N&V), is the study and modi cation of the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and trucks. While noise and vibration can be readily measured, harshness is a subjective quality, and is measured either via "jury" evaluations, or with analytical tools that can provide results re ecting human subjective impressions.
