This paper presents an overview of structural optimization and some closely related subjects in the automobile industry. An historical review of the development of structural optimization is given, specifically concerning NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) during the period from the late eighties until today. Some of the fundamental steps which were taken and the nature of the problems that had to be overcome will be highlighted. The current state of technical affairs relating to the optimizer algorithms, analysis and pre/post processing is reviewed, considering theoretical as well as application oriented aspects. Finally, the application of structural optimization during the development process of an automobile is discussed, including identification of its major benefits. Examples and case studies will demonstrate the applicability and limitations of structural optimization in daily engineering practice. The paper ends with a review of future trends in structural optimization applications and their implications.
