Nissan’s Mode Control Design Technology (NODAL Mount)

Mode Control Design Technology

Nissan has always concentrated on giving passengers an enjoyable and secure driving experience in all kinds of road conditions.

The automaker undertakes the rigid vehicle bodies’ development and reduction of weight. Sometimes, the vehicle bodies may turn out to be vulnerable to vibration due to reduction of weight. So, they took into consideration the vehicle deformation mode in case it vibrates and built a comfortable body by controlling the deformation.

Thoroughly taking into account the deformation vibration mode and using that feature – they worked on this technology and the result is what Nissan called Mode Control Design Technology (Nodal Mount). It facilitates a comfortable and smooth drive always without any kind of disturbance by shake or sound.

The Mode Control Design Technology (Nodal Mount) technology has recognized the co-achievement of drive comfort and weight reduction.

The fundamental characteristic of a comfortable car body is reduced vibration against any input force. However, the counter-action for this may be achieved with extra mass. On the contrary, there’s always a motionless point known as ‘node’. Comfort can be enhanced by designing the vehicle body in such a way that input force is applied to this specific node.

Nissan achieved this drive comfort by researching the ideal body deformation mode at times of vibration and analyzed it. Nissan’s new Mode Control Design Technology ensures a pleasurable driving experience, which aims at realizing an unparalleled level of comfort and assurance.
