2. Noise, vibration, and harshness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise,_vibration,_and...

   Specific methods for improving NVH include the use of tuned mass dampers, subframes, balancing, modifying the stiffness or mass of structures, retuning exhausts and intakes, modifying the characteristics of elastomeric isolators, adding sound deadening or absorbing materials, and using active noise control. In some circumstances, substantial ...

3. Soundproofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundproofing

   A pair of headphones being tested inside an anechoic chamber for soundproofing. Soundproofing is any means of impeding sound propagation.There are several methods employed including increasing the distance between the source and receiver, decoupling, using noise barriers to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles for absorption, or using ...

4. Acoustic quieting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_quieting

   Sound reflections: by limiting the reflection using many methods, e.g. by using acoustic absorption (deadening) materials, trapping the sound, opening a "window" to let sound out, etc. By analyzing the entire sequence of events, from the source to the observer, an acoustic engineer can provide many ways to quieten the machine.

5. Headliner (material) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headliner_(material)

   A headliner often is a composite material that is adhered to the inside roof of automobiles, aircraft, and yachts. It typically consists of a face fabric with nonwoven or foam backing. Headliners consist of multilayered composite materials that bring together multiple functionalities, including the requested look, feel, stiffness, and sound ...

6. Acoustic foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_foam

   Acoustic foam tiles are suited to placing on sonically reflective surfaces to act as sound absorbers, thus enhancing or changing the sound properties of a room. [ 11 ] This type of sound absorption is different from soundproofing, which is typically used to keep sound from escaping or entering a room rather than changing the properties of sound ...

7. Laminated glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_glass

   Special clear adhesive resin is injected under pressure and then cured with ultraviolet light. When done properly, the strength and clarity is sufficiently restored for most safety related purposes. The process is widely used to repair large industrial automotive windshields where the damage does not interfere with the view of the driver.
