    Background

    Suspension System
    Improve Ride Quality
    Good Road Handling
    Depending on
    Vertical Motion (Heave) of Vehicle Body
    Angular Motions (Pitch and Roll) of
    Vehicle Body

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Introduction

    Most of vehicle suspension models


    are 1 DOF to 4 DOF (half vehicle)
    Easier to model and implement
    Large volume of technical research on topic
    available
    However
    They ignore the roll motion of the vehicle
    Incapable of determining torsional rigidness of
    the vehicle

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Introduction

    To capture the dynamic phenomenon


    of heave, pitch, and roll is to model
    the full vehicle suspension system.

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Modeling Approach

    Full vehicle suspension model

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Modeling Approach
    Full vehicle model has 7 degrees of
    freedom
    Vertical Motion of 4 Unsprung
    masses (wheels)
    Heave, Pitch and Roll Motion of
    Sprung mass

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Modeling Approach

    Assumptions are:
    Suspension damping and spring
    Stiffness are constant
    Vehicle Body (sprung mass and rotation
    inertia are concentrated about CoG)
    Wheel (unsprung mass, tire spring
    stiffness and damping)

    ME 610 Presentation.

    Modeling and Analysis

    To create simulation model of full


    vehicle suspension system:
    Determine the equations of motion for 7
    dof (2nd order)
    Decouple the equations of motion into
    14 ordinary equations (1st order)
    Use numerical methods to provide
    solutions from the decoupling
    Animate model using the solutions

    generic
    The generalized parameters of the
    full vehicle model allows for:

    Optimization of ride quality


    Optimization of handling capabilities

    Current model is utilized as a vehicle

    Recommendations

    Increase full vehicle suspension


    model capabilities by:
    Including tire lift-off and suspension
    travel limits
    Develop a complete road handling
    capable vehicle model
    Introduce control logic capabilities for
    possible active and semi-active
    suspension
