Abstract

The suspension system is a group of mechanical components that links the wheels to the frame or chassis. Suspension systems have received a significant deal of engineering attention as part of an ongoing effort to improve vehicle ride and handling as well as passenger comfort and safety. As the noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) issues are at the forefront of the customers perspective, the vehicle comfort and stability have been considered. In the passenger four-wheelers, shock absorption and vibration due to random excitation are prevalent. The suspension effects play a major role in absorbing the shocks. Hence, this work attempts to model a car suspension and analyzed the dynamic behaviour due to external excitation forces. Among the investigated materials, the epoxy based composites ended-up with the larger deformations and higher stresses compared to the aluminium and steel.
