Electric Machine Noise and Vibration Assessment Using MASTA / Flux

Andrew Lawton, Principal Research Engineer at Smart Manufacturing Technology. Andrew has worked at SMT for almost 10 years with a focus on the dynamic analysis of drivetrains, including the effect of excitation forces from the electric machine as well as the gears. Andrew’s presentation will cover NVH analysis of an EV drivetrain, specifically with regard to response to electric machine forces generated by Altair Flux.  He will illustrate this by looking at how the presence of unbalanced magnetic pull can affect the NVH response by importing the forces from Flux into MASTA.
