Abstract

In Formula Society of Automotive Engineers (FSAE) the design of suspension system is one of the most important area on which performance of vehicle depends. Present study proposes the procedure in designing a double wishbone independent suspension system for FSAE cars. This paper details the procedure utilized for design and analysis of mechanical systems which can be utilized within the FSAE vehicle norms. Suspension geometry is specified on basis of FSAE guidelines, packaging constraints and desired performance parameters. Forces are calculated based on weight of vehicle and weight transfer while riding. Suspension geometry is designed and linear Static Stress analysis on the suspension system is done considering forces, space availability and safety aspects for optimum performance.
