Modeling and Dynamic Analysis of a Novel Hydro-Pneumatic Suspension System

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study presents a modeling procedure and dynamic analysis for a novel hydro-pneumatic suspension system, in which the gas chamber has been integrated into the main structures. The modeling of the novel hydro-pneumatic suspension system has been established based on the mass conservation and force balance and the dimension has been obtained through a design optimization approach. The simulation results of the established model have been compared with those obtained through ADAMS, and good match can be observed.
