Influence of Suspension Nonlinear Hysteretic Characteristic on Handling Performance

Article Preview

Abstract:

Suspension stiffness is influenced by the nonlinear hysteretic characteristic, which has effect on vehicle handling performance. In this paper, the effect of suspension nonlinear hysteretic characteristic is analyzed and described and the effect of characteristic on suspension stiffness and handling performance is indicated by simulating results. Due to suspension stiffness is smaller than nominal stiffness with suspension travel which described by nonlinear hysteretic characteristic model, handling performance is obtained accurately.
