Abstract
We have proposed a technique for SEA model construction using FEM, which is called FEM-SEA.Using this method, we can build the SEA model without actual experiment.The purpose of the reserch was building the FEM-SEA model for an automobile trimmedbody, which is whitebody with floor carpet. As a basic study, we examined the vibration character of steel plate with floor carpet.The result showed that a FEmodel consisting damped oscillator could describe the vibration of steel plate with floor carpet .Application of this FEmodel to actual parts of automobile clarified effectiveness of this model comparing with actual value.
