Soft or solid? Latest technologies for controlling nonlinear dynamic mount stiffness in powertrain NVH prediction

Rubber mounts are indispensable in preventing structural excitations from reaching the cabin (and you!).
Unfortunately, rubber is also an incredibly non-linear material that makes it very difficult to predict its effectiveness. This blog explains how you can eliminate the uncertainty introduced by nonlinear dynamic mount stiffness when predicting (electric) powertrain NVH.
