Abstract

Abstract: Suspension is one of the automobile's critical subsystems. Isolating the driver from the shocks of the road is the ultimate purpose. The need of sufficient wheel travel, lateral stability, load transmission, and driver comfort are elements of secondary functions. The study details the design and improvement of an ATV's braking and rear wheel suspension systems. The vehicle was designed under the terms of rules framed by the SAE Organization. The suspension provides the most effective achievable camber, caster, toe, anti-dive, Roll Center, and improvements since it is made for tough terrain. Additionally, there are also calculations, mounting considerations, and shock absorber presented. A prime instance of a commercial software package that studies suspension geometry is Lotus Shark. With the commercial program ANSYS WOKRBENCH, different suspension components are subjected to finite element analysis. All knuckle tests were performed on aluminium alloys 7075 and Hub EN24.
