Vehicle suspension system plays an important role in the influence of whole vehicle handling and riding characteristic, as an important part of vehicle chassis system. In the paper, based on the basic test parameters and relevant modeling data of ex-MacPherson suspension of the sample car, the virtual prototype model of this suspension is built by making use of ADAMS/Car module. According to the requirements of the relevant design, some of the model parameters have been adjusted, on the basis of which, K&C characteristic simulation before and after the adjustment is done. The results show that, after adjustment, the majority of suspension K&C characteristic is satisfied, and improved the kinematics of the suspension system.

In this work, primary resonance of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) vehicle suspension system with nonlinear stiffness and nonlinear damping under multi-frequency excitations is investigated. The primary resonance equation is obtained by average method, and then the system’s bifurcation behaviors are studied by singularity theory. In addition, the effect of changing physical model parameters on the system’s primary resonance is studied.

The Impact

This article concerns a hybrid vehicle suspension system that can regenerate energy from vibrations. To further improve the performance of the hybrid vehicle suspension system, the design of the energy-regenerative circuit is investigated. First, the force tests of the linear motor used in the hybrid vehicle suspension were carried out, and the key parameters of the linear motor were obtained. Then, the selection procedures of the protective resistance, inductance, and initial terminal voltage of the super capacitor were discussed. These aforementioned parameters’ values were determined by considering the impact of the hybrid suspension on the dynamic performance indexes and the energy-regenerative efficiency. Simulations showed that, in comparison to the original hybrid suspension system, the designed hybrid suspension effectively improved the energy-regenerative efficiency, and that the dynamic performance indexes of the suspension were synchronously improved. Given the result of the simulation analysis, which were validated by bench tests, it is shown that the optimized energy-regenerative circuit presents an enhanced regeneration efficiency, with an improvement of nearly 13% compared to the original suspension system.

Vehicle Suspension System

In order to study on the kinematic characteristic of a light vehicle suspension system, the kinematic simulation model of the whole double-wishbone independent suspension was built using ADAMS software. In order to reflect the actual running condition of the vehicle, the random excitation of the test platforms of the left and right wheels were created, respectively. The variable regularity of the kinematic characteristic parameters was uncovered in the process of the suspension motion. The irrationality of the suspension guiding mechanism design was pointed out through simulation and analysis, and the existent problems of the guiding mechanism were optimized and calculated. The results show that there is small variation of the front wheel orientation parameters before and after optimization, and all of them are within the design requirement ranges. The variation of the WCD (wheel center distance) and FWSS (front wheel sideways slippage) are bigger, and still within the ideal ranges after optimization. The anticipated optimization goal is achieved, and an important basis is provided for the improving design of the light vehicle suspension.

Suspension Structure

Background: Vehicles generally travel on different road conditions, and withstand strong shock and vibration. In order to reduce or isolate the strong shock and vibration, it is necessary to propose and develop a high-performance vehicle suspension system. Objective: This study aims to report a pneumatic artificial muscle bionic kangaroo leg suspension to improve the comfort performance of vehicle suspension system. Methods: In summarizing the existing vehicle suspension systems and analyzing their advantages and disadvantages, this paper introduces a new patent of vehicle suspension system based on the excellent damping and buffering performance of kangaroo leg, A Pneumatic Artificial Muscle Bionic Kangaroo Leg Suspension. According to the biomimetic principle, the pneumatic artificial muscles bionic kangaroo leg suspension with equal bone ratio is constructed on the basis of the kangaroo leg crural index, and two working modes (passive and active modes) are designed for the suspension. Moreover, the working principle of the suspension system is introduced, and the rod system equations for the suspension structure are built up. The characteristic simulation model of this bionic suspension is established in Adams, and the vertical performance is analysed. Results: It is found that the largest deformation happens in the bionic heel spring and the largest angle change occurs in the bionic ankle joint under impulse road excitation, which is similar to the dynamic characteristics of kangaroo leg. Furthermore, the dynamic displacement and the acceleration of the vehicle body are both sharply reduced. Conclusion: The simulation results show that the comfort performance of this bionic suspension is excellent under the impulse road excitation, which indicates the bionic suspension structure is feasible and reasonable to be applied to vehicle suspensions.
