Two degrees of freedom models of a car are employed to demonstrate the effects of the suspension derivative ∂ x/∂ z on the pitch and bounce attitudes during braking or accelerating. The work equation is employed to show that brake effort distribution between the axles has a significant effect on the attitudes when anti-dive suspension characteristics are utilized. The steady-state positions in both pitch and bounce are developed for linear systems of typical suspensions that may be either standard or coupled systems. Non-linear systems are considered using simulation techniques. A description of some simulation circuits is contained in an appendix.

A generalization of the gauge equivalence of Lagrangians is developed. In this approach the different Lagrangians determine not only the same set of solutions but also the same energies. Some general properties are studied and then the case of velocity-free forces is considered. In particular we show the non-existence for n=2 (two degrees of freedom) of such equivalent Lagrangians and that when n=3 the only forces admitting such equivalent Lagrangians correspond to those deriving from central potentials.
