Hans Bodén

Hans Bodén is a Professor in Engineering Acoustics with a specialization in Signal Analysis and Measurement Techniques at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. He was installed as a professor in 2013 and focuses on reducing environmental noise through advanced research in aeroacoustics, system identification methods, and fluid machine analysis.

His research addresses noise generation and propagation in systems like internal combustion engines and fans, with a focus on lightweight, energy-efficient vehicle technologies. Techniques developed at KTH, such as source characterization for computational fluid dynamics, are now industry standards.

Bodén teaches courses in Building Acoustics, Flow Acoustics, and Mechanical Systems, serving as a course coordinator for advanced projects in sound and vibrations. His work bridges experimental methodologies and computational tools to solve real-world noise challenges, particularly in automotive and mechanical engineering contexts.
