One of the authors has already formulated the sensitivity analysis for a coupled structural‐acoustic system and applied the method in order to obtain modal sensitivities and modal frequency response sensitivities for the sound pressure level at peak frequency points. However, for the development of a vehicle, not only the reduction of peak frequency level but also that of integral of noise for a specified frequency range is desired. For investigating this it is considered effective to use sensitivities of integrated sound pressure level for a specified frequency range. Thus a “sound pressure level integral” has been developed, which is the integrated value of sound pressure level, and further “sensitivity of sound pressure level integral”. Shows how an integral analysis process is performed, and how vibration and noise can be reduced.
