Abstract

A device for analyzing and compensating for automotive noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) is provided. The device includes a microprocessor, a sensor, to measure NVH associated with an automotive system of a vehicle at a frequency and monitor any direct correlation of an environmental condition to a harmonic or resonation problem, the sensor having an output in electrical communication with the microprocessor when vibrations are present at the measured frequency, and a tensioner for adjusting surface tension of a surface of the vehicle to reduce resonance, wherein the tensioner adjusts tension when said microprocessor determines resonance as sensed by the sensor.
