The vehicle suspension system is an important part to minimize the vibration of the vehicle caused by road unevenness. The classification of the road surface in this study is based on the classification of road roughness "Good" according to ISO 8606. The analysis of passive suspension system in this research may explain the frequency response which is received by the motorists while driving. The full car model with 1 DOF riders used in this study, simulated by using the numerical simulation software. The frequency response analysis is done on the vertical movement of the driver. Based on the analysis performed, the highest acceleration of 2.375 m / s2 at a frequency of 3.258 Hz. This value indicates the condition of "Uncomfortable" based on the table of ISO 2631. This condition will cause the rider toexperience dizziness, therefore it is strongly advised motorists to avoid frequencies below 7 Hz.

The main functions of suspension system are to provide ride comfort for the passengers and vehicle handling (road holding). But, in many studies, full attention to the ride comfort leads to the determination of incorrect suspension system parameters as well as other problems such as rollover and reducing road-holding ability in the vehicle. The aim of this study is to present a method for the optimized design of the vehicle suspension system in order to improve the ride comfort, road holding, workspace and preventing rollover, considering a full vehicle model with 11-DOF. The most important feature of this study is that the prevention of rollover factor and all of suspension functions are considered simultaneously. In this research, in order to assess the ride comfort, the vertical acceleration values of seats that are caused by random road roughness are calculated by power spectral density of road in frequency domain. In the context of prevention of rollover, Fishhook manoeuvre is performed using a mathematical model for the roll motion, and then the dynamic behaviour of the variables is considered in rollover threshold. Then, the optimization problem is solved to minimize the vertical acceleration values and vehicle roll angle by considering the physical limitation and safety of the model. The results of the optimization show that the vertical acceleration, in frequency domain at the desired boundary values (as defined in ISO 2631), decreases and rollover resistance of the vehicle increases.

Road roughness is an important factor in road network maintenance and ride quality. This paper proposes a road-roughness estimation method using the frequency response function (FRF) of a vehicle. First, based on the motion equation of the vehicle and the time shift property of the Fourier transform, the vehicle FRF with respect to the displacements of vehicle–road contact points, which describes the relationship between the measured response and road roughness, is deduced and simplified. The key to road roughness estimation is the vehicle FRF, which can be estimated directly using the measured response and the designed shape of the road based on the least-squares method. To eliminate the singular data in the estimated FRF, the shape function method was employed to improve the local curve of the FRF. Moreover, the road roughness can be estimated online by combining the estimated roughness in the overlapping time periods. Finally, a half-car model was used to numerically validate the proposed methods of road roughness estimation. Driving tests of a vehicle passing over a known-sized hump were designed to estimate the vehicle FRF, and the simulated vehicle accelerations were taken as the measured responses considering a 5% Gaussian white noise. Based on the directly estimated vehicle FRF and updated FRF, the road roughness estimation, which considers the influence of the sensors and quantity of measured data at different vehicle speeds, is discussed and compared. The results show that road roughness can be estimated using the proposed method with acceptable accuracy and robustness.

The main objective of the Suspension of a vehicle is to maximize the contact between the vehicle tires and the road surface, provide steering stability and provide safe vehicle control in all conditions, evenly support the weight of the vehicle, transfer the loads to springs, and guaranteeing the comfort of the driver by absorbing and dampening shock. This paper discusses the kinematic design of a double a-arm Suspension system for an FSAE Vehicle. The hardpoint’s location can be determined using this procedure to simulate motion in any kinematic simulation software. Here, Optimum Kinematics is used as kinematic simulation software, and the results are verified using Msc Adams simulation. The method illustrated deals with the basics of Kinematics which helps to predict the characteristics of the Suspension even before simulating it in the kinematic simulation software.

All vehicles are affected by the type of the road they are moving on it.  Therefore the stability depends mainly on the amount of vibrations and steering system, which in turn depend on two main factors: the first is on the road type, which specifies the amount of vibrations arising from the movement of the wheels above it, and the second on is the type of the used suspension system, and how the parts connect with each other. As well as the damping factors, the tires type, and the used sprungs. In the current study, we will examine the effect of the road roughness on the performance coefficients (speed, displacement, and acceleration) of the joint points by using a BOGE device.

This paper presents an energy-regenerative suspension device that is able to harvest some of the wasted energy that is generated in a suspension system. For a traditional road vehicle suspension system, shock absorbers are mainly dissipating energy to reduce vibration. The dissipated energy may be collected to improve the fuel economy of road vehicles. In this research, CarSim and Simulink are used to simulate and determine the harvestable energy in a conventional shock absorber under different operating conditions. A conceptual energy-regenerative absorber is designed and tested using a fabricated prototype. A variable speed motor is implemented to adapt the change of stroke length of a mechanism due to the various road roughness. Instruments, e.g., laser tachometer, pressure gauge, ammeter, voltmeter, and stopwatch, are used to collect data. The simulation and prototype testing results indicate that the proposed energy-regenerative suspension device could harvest dissipated energy to improve vehicle fuel economy.

As the road conditions are completely unknown in the design of a suspension controller, an improved linear quadratic and Gaussian distributed (LQG) controller is proposed for active suspension system without considering road input signals. The main purpose is to optimize the vehicle body acceleration, pitching angular acceleration, displacement of suspension system, and tire dynamic deflection comprehensively. Meanwhile, it will extend the applicability of the LQG controller. Firstly, the half-vehicle and road input mathematical models of an active suspension system are established, with the weight coefficients of each evaluating indicator optimized by using genetic algorithm (GA). Then, a simulation model is built in Matlab/Simulink environment. Finally, a comparison of simulation is conducted to illustrate that the proposed LQG controller can obtain the better comprehensive performance of vehicle suspension system and improve riding comfort and handling safety compared to the conventional one.

This study investigated the dynamics and control of a nonlinear suspension system using a quarter-car model that is forced by the road profile. Bifurcation analysis used to characterize nonlinear dynamic behavior revealed codimension-two bifurcation and homoclinic orbits. The nonlinear dynamics were determined using bifurcation diagrams, phase portraits, Poincaré maps, frequency spectra, and Lyapunov exponents. The Lyapunov exponent was used to identify the onset of chaotic motion. Finally, state feedback control was used to prevent chaotic motion. The effectiveness of the proposed control method was determined via numerical simulations.

To create an energy efficient vehicle there are a number of aspects that need to be optimized, namely; the drive train of the vehicle and energy source, aerodynamics and weight. Focusing on weight reduction, while still maintaining the desired performance and structural strength, many manufacturers are turning to advanced composites due to their superior strength to weight characteristics. Solar car racing provides a research platform that drives this innovation through technology development and efficiency. A lightweight vehicle suspension system design is being presented, together with an introduction into future testing. A suspension system is made up of a number of critical components which are dynamically loaded during standard operation due to undulating forces imposed by the road surface. Unidirectional cross-wound carbon fiber tubing is used for suspension and steering arms. The tubing is interfaced with small steel inserts and pivoting arm tie rod ends. Concerns within the design are the adhesive bonding of the carbon tubing to the steel inserts, and what type of tensile loading the interface can withstand. Due to forces imposed on the system during cornering and shock loading the components are required to withstand a minimum of 1.2 times the weight of the overall vehicle, i.e. 258 kg. Tensile test results show that the mechanical properties of the adhesive joints rely somewhat on the surface characteristics and bond preparation. The target load of 258 kg was successfully obtained under static loading for two types of sample sets. The first based on the standard for describing the lap shear strength of adhesively bonded carbon fiber to aluminum, and the second based on the working component itself.

Besides the performances of handling, stability, ride comfort, power and fuel economy, the sound pressure levels in the automobile passenger compartments heavily influence the customer’s purchasing decision. The interior acoustics of automobile passenger compartment was analyzed in this paper. The frequency response analysis was performed on the vehicle body due to road roughness. The frequency response of vehicle body’s output spectrum, nodes’ velocity is used as the boundary condition of the acoustic cavity. With boundary element method and acoustic transfer vector method, the panel acoustic contribution was analyzed. By modifying the stiffness, damping or mass of the corresponding panel, the acoustic pressure levels at the driver’s and passenger’s ear were decreased.

An optimal preview control of a vehicle suspension system traveling on a rough road is studied. A three-dimensional seven degree-of-freedom car-riding model and several descriptions of the road surface roughness heights, including haversine (hole/bump) and stochastic filtered white noise models, are used in the analysis. It is assumed that contact-less sensors affixed to the vehicle front bumper measure the road surface height at some distances in the front of the car. The suspension systems are optimized with respect to ride comfort and road holding preferences including accelerations of the sprung mass, tire deflection, suspension rattle space and control force. The performance and power demand of active, active and delay, active and preview systems are evaluated and are compared with those for the passive system. The results show that the optimal preview control improves all aspects of the vehicle suspension performance while requiring less power. Effects of variation of preview time and variations in the road condition are also examined.
