  • Actran Acoustics

    Engineers must understand the behavior of sound in order to subsequently design, analyze and control it. Analyze sound radiation, absorption and propagation with Actran Acoustics, the foundation module of the Actran family, for applications such as intake and exhaust noise, including complex mufflers and silencers and sound absorption inside passenger compartment of cars, trains and aircrafts.

  • Actran VibroAcoustics

    Vibration is a chief concern of engineers. Unwanted noise is often caused by vibration and by altering and eliminating it, the problem is often reduced. Visualize how vibro-acoustics affects the design of large machines so that their operation is smooth without unwanted vibration with the Vibro-Acoustics module in the Actran Student Edition.
