Excellence in electric vehicle NVH at Karma Automotive

What should an electric sports car engine sound like? There is currently no clear answer to this question, as there is very little history of electric vehicles to draw from. Engine noise is also brand-specific, so even existing electric vehicles will sound different depending on which company produced them.

How Rule of Mixtures is Killing Your Composite Design

Rule of Mixtures is probably the most known and widespread method of estimating composite properties. Its notoriety in composite design circles is also its main problem: Rule of Mixtures has been overused and applied to cases that do not even come close to respecting its original, simplifying assumptions.

Multiscale Analysis: A General Overview and Its Applications in Material Design

Modeling advanced materials accurately is extremely complex. Multiscale simulations achieve balance between simulation accuracy and computational efficiency by capturing their behavior and important features at multiple scales.
