Abstract
Chapter 4 addresses the modelling and analysis of the suspension system. An attempt has been made to bridge the gap between the textbook treatment of suspension systems and the multibody systems (MBS) approach to building and simulating suspension models. As such a number of case studies have been included to demonstrate the application of the models and their use in the vehicle design process. The chapter concludes with an extensive case study comparing a full set of analytical calculations, using the vector-based methods introduced in Chapter 2, with the output produced from MSC ADAMS. It is intended that this exercise will demonstrate to readers the underlying computations in process when running an MBS simulation.
