Abstract

The work approaches the static analysis of a suspension mechanism with leaf springs and reaction bars used for motor vehicles. The reaction bars are used for compensating the twist of the springs into an ‘S’ shape, a phenomenon that occurs in the classic suspension system with soft leaf springs during hard acceleration or braking. The virtual prototyping software package ADAMS is used for modelling and simulating the suspension system. The static analysis results reveal the improved behaviour of the suspension system with reaction bars relative to the classical leaf spring suspension system.
