Abstract
Riding comfort is of paramount importance when designing a suspension system considering vehicle dynamics & stability control. Generally, two-wheelers use springs, hydraulic and pneumatic-type damping mechanisms. The present work was a neoteric magnetic suspension system for two-wheelers that use both magnetic and spring cushioning effects to provide comfort to the rider. In this work, two Neodymium ferromagnetic materials were fixed inside the shock absorber cylinders facing same pole each other. The repulsive magnetic flux they produce when come closer due to shocking load was utilized as media for dampening the shock. The combination of permanent magnet with coiled spring has been utilized to enhance the cushioning effect against the shock transmitted due to acceleration on an uneven road condition. The designed suspension system was more efficient over other type of suspension systems, absorbs a greater number of shocks with high accuracy and had no leakage problem unlike in hydraulic and pneumatic system. The design was validated using 3D modelling and Ansys simulation. The beneficial software validation made the design tentative to work efficiently with less maintenance cost.
