DIRAC

DIRAC is our user-friendly FRF testing software with the Virtual Point technology. DIRAC enables engineers to measure FRFs of components and full-vehicles and to use the resulting models in many different configurations or for Blocked Force calculations.

SOURCE

SOURCE is a dedicated software application for blocked force source characterization and component TPA. It generates high-quality and traceable calculations, an intuitive workflow and multi-leveled quality checks.

VIBES Toolbox for MATLAB

The VIBES Toolbox for MATLAB is our all-round expert tool to prepare and post-process measurement data in Dynamic Substructuring, test-based modeling and source characterization problems.

Accurate and intuitive measurements and analysis

Improving sound & vibration engineering

VIBES brings promising, innovative methods for sound & vibration research & development to the automotive and high tech industries, resulting in reliable, time-efficient and cost-effective measurements. Our proven VIBES Methodology leads to accurate source characterizations, prevents (human) error and allows for a modular way-of-working towards full vehicle predictions. These advanced checks and calculations are now accessible in real-time, while performing the measurement, with our software applications DIRAC and SOURCE.

Our solutions

Engineering Services

VIBES consulting services offer the smartest and most innovative customized solution for every modular modelling issue.

Software Licences

For those who are already convinced about our intuitive software application and want to work with it in-house, we offer licences for DIRAC and the Toolbox.

Our unique approach

We combine test-based data with simulated data through our unique Virtual Point Transformation. This allows for a hybrid modeling approach where our clients can cherry-pick the best modeling approach on a case-by-case basis.

We use measurements to characterize dynamic properties of components, subsystems or full vehicles. Proper dynamic characterizations are the basis of sound & vibration engineering. A modular way of working – our unique VIBES Methodology.

Test-based models are coupled to simulated models through virtual points
The models are a property of the test object only, independent of the testbench or environment
Models are valid in large frequency range – up to 3000Hz
Only a single measurement is needed per component vs. a measurement for each component-vehicle configuration
