The Cylindrical Air Spring Suspension Stability Model and Simulation

Abstract:

There is a close relationship between the stability of vehicle and the suspension. In this paper, an air spring suspension stability model is established by MATLAB/Simulink based on vehicle stability theories. This air spring suspension stability model is used to analyze the performance of air spring suspension and the stability of vehicle by the simulation of gyratory motion and linear motion, after that real vehicle tests is performed, the contrast between them will be used to judge the accuracy and effectiveness of the air spring suspension stability model. In this paper, some original data come from a sedan. The data of this paper has proved the vehicle installing the cylindrical air spring suspension, has a good stability performance.
