Vehicle Suspension K&C Characteristic Simulation Analysis Based on ADAMS

Article Preview

Abstract:

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.
