Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The information about application of hydraulic springs in suspension systems of tanks and self-propelled artillery weapons may be found in domestic scientific and nonfiction literature. In addition, machines, which prototypes were equipped with this type of suspension, are known. For instance, possibility of hydraulic suspension implementation was proven on the T-34 tank prorotype, whereas application of this type of suspension with heavy tanks gave the most prospectivity. Complication of sealing build-up with sufficient life span, development of technologies of metal springs strengthening and shutdown of heavy tanks development did not allowed hydraulic suspensions to become widespread. At present, they are not used at all, whereas methods of analytical calculation are not in public access, despite of the interest of a group of scientists. AIMS: Development of the method of determination of main parameters of suspensions with hydraulic springs and analysis of properties of the T-34-76 Soviet middle tank prototype hydraulic suspension from the point of modern theory of nonlinear suspension systems. METHODS: Justification and confidence of given dependencies for properties calculation, conclusions and recommendations are confirmed with application of strict mathematical apparatus of mechanics, hydraulics and thermodynamics as well as scientifically justified theoretical backgrounds. RESULTS: Historic data on liquids compressibility researches, method of analytical determination of main properties of hydraulic springs with various design schemes, allowing restoring of properties of suspensions of existing tracked vehicles, synthesizing properties of other suspensions and, moreover, estimating reasonability of properties of suspension with hydraulic springs, are presented in the article. According to the method, proposed in the article, properties of the hydraulic spring from the T-34-76 Soviet middle tank prototype, equipped with hydraulic suspension, were restored and analyzed. In addition, suspension properties for the same vehicle were synthesized and used for a comparative analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The information, presented in the article, is helpful for research engineers, interested in study of elastic behavior of liquids in case of their application in suspension systems, whereas the proposed method, allowing synthesis of reasonable properties of hydraulic springs, gives an opportunity to study the ride comfort of tank propotypes, equipped with hydraulic suspension, with a good quality and, moreover, to synthesize hydraulic springs properties according to the demands, given to a design engineer.

Abstract:
The paper presents the comparison of the characteristics of spring and damping components used in conventional and non-conventional automotive suspensions. The conventional suspension is based on steel coil springs and hydraulic dampers with fixed characteristics. As an example, the adaptive non-conventional suspension shows the characteristics of hydropneumatic suspension components (suspension are constantly being developed and is now based on mechatronic control systems of damping characteristics). The paper summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of these solutions.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the issue of determining the roll stiffness of the truck suspension. The actual roll stiffness of the spring suspension differs from the theoretical one due to the design features of the spring suspension. The real roll stiffness of the spring suspension, in addition to the vertical stiffness of the springs, is affected by the stiffness of the silent blocks and the stiffness of the springs during lateral bending, as well as the stiffness of the springs during torsion. Analytical dependences for calculating the roll stiffness of the suspension are given. A mathematical model is considered that allows calculating the roll stiffness of the suspension by simulation modeling. Simulation studies have shown that the actual roll stiffness of the spring suspension may differ by 53% from the roll stiffness obtained by calculating the vertical stiffness of elastic elements.

Abstract:
The helical spring is a widely used element in suspension systems. Traditionally, the springs have been wound from solid round wire. Significant weight savings can be achieved by fabricating helical springs from hollow tubing. For suspension systems, weight savings result in significant transportation fuel savings. This paper uses previously published equations to calculate the maximum shear stress and deflection of the hollow helical spring. Since the equations are complex, solving them on a computer or spreadsheet would require a trial-and-error method. As a design aid to avoid this problem, this paper gives nomograms for the design of lightweight hollow helical springs. The nomograms are graphical solutions to the maximum stress and deflection equations. Example suspension spring designs show that significant weight savings (of the order of 50% or more) can be achieved using hollow springs. Hollow springs could also be used in extreme temperature situations. Heating or cooling fluids can be circulated through the hollow spring.

Abstract:
The analysis of random vibration of a vehicle with hysteretic nonlinear suspension under road roughness excitation is a fundamental part of evaluation of a vehicle’s dynamic features and design of its active suspension system. The effective analysis method of random vibration of a vehicle with hysteretic suspension springs is presented based on the pseudoexcitation method and the equivalent linearisation technique. A stable and efficient iteration scheme is constructed to obtain the equivalent linearised system of the original nonlinear vehicle system. The power spectral density of the vehicle responses (vertical body acceleration, suspension working space and dynamic tyre load) at different speeds and with different nonlinear levels of hysteretic suspension springs are analysed, respectively, by the proposed method. It is concluded that hysteretic nonlinear suspensions influence the vehicle dynamic characteristic significantly; the frequency-weighted root mean square values at the front and rear suspensions and the vehicle’s centre of gravity are reduced greatly with increasing the nonlinear levels of hysteretic suspension springs, resulting in better ride comfort of the vehicle.

Abstract:
It is worthwhile to design a more accurate dynamic model for air springs, to investigate the dynamic behaviour of an air spring suspension, and to analyse and guide the design of vehicles with air spring suspensions. In this study, a dynamic model of air spring was established, considering the heat transfer process of the air springs. Two different types of air spring were tested, and the experimental results verified the effectiveness of the air spring model compared with the traditional model. The key factors affecting the computation accuracy were studied and checked by comparing the results of the experiments and simulations. The new dynamic model of the air spring was integrated into the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model, in order to investigate the air suspension behaviour and vehicle dynamics characteristics. The co-simulation method using ADAMS and MATLAB/Simulink was applied to integration of the air spring model with the full-vehicle multi-body dynamics model.

In modern locomotive design to reduce a dynamic effect upon a track there are widely used jaw and lawless six-wheel bogies supplied with a spring suspension using laminated springs, cylindrical spiral springs of compression and pneumatic springs. A considerable drawback of all known designs of spring suspension for rolling-stock is that all of them apart from a pneumatic one have no possibility for self-regulation in an automatic mode of their rigid characteristics de-pending on external dynamic impacts of track unevenness upon the latter.

Abstract:
This study aims to determine the effect of road surface contours on fatigue life of coil springs and lower suspension arm. In this study, strain gauge was affixed to the critical point of the minibus front suspension coil springs based on stress distribution. Strain signal obtained was analyzed using the Coffin-Manson, Morrow, and SWT approaches. From the results of the chemical composition test, it was found that the coil springs were made of SAE 5160 and lower suspension arm made of AISI 1513. From the results of this study it can be concluded that when the vehicle drive on the damaged road, coil spring and lower suspension arm received greater stress so that provide shorter fatigue life. Fatigue life of coil spring on rough roads is 16% lower than city roads and 7% lower than flat roads. Whereas fatigue life of lower suspension arm on rough roads is 27% lower than city roads and 0.03% lower than flat roads. So that the coil spring components fail faster than the lower suspension arm. This is because the contour of the road surface provides a vertical load so that it is in accordance with the function of the coil spring which works to reduce the load vertically while the lower suspension arm function holds the load when turning.

Abstract:
There is a considerable body of research on the modelling and optimization of vehicle suspension systems. The main focus in most publications is an optimization procedure undertaken to find the values of the model parameters that satisfy certain operating requirements. However, the methods proposed do not always offer a broad variety of concepts and techniques. Most of these methods aim to find optimal values of suspension system parameters with respect to some optimality criteria that are often not explicitly formulated. In addition, none of the reviewed works utilizes existing guidelines and standards, on the vibration exposure on humans, to formulate optimization criteria. This would produce more applicable results of industrial and commercial merit. It is also important to mention that only a limited number of works offered numerical examples where real road conditions are employed for the optimization procedure. The presented thesis is devoted to development of a methodology for the optimization of vehicle suspension systems on the basis of two criteria: the improved comfort levels and advanced steering properties. The developed methodology is applied to various Australian roads, including highways, city roads, and country roads. It consists of a few steps as detailed below. The first step features the construction of a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of the vehicle suspension system. In the thesis different types of the quarter-car models and different biomechanical models for the driver are considered. All models considered are described by the corresponding systems of linear differential equations. The second step is undertaken to construct criteria to evaluate the comfort levels for the driver and passengers. For this purpose, a criterion was adopted from the ISO 2631 (1997) standards to quantify the comfort levels during a ride. To utilize this criterion, the steady-state vibrations, obtained from the system Differential Equations for various excitation frequencies, have been combined via a novel mathematical approach undertaken to eliminate the need to include the time of exposure in the calculations. This will enhance the applicability of the proposed method and simplify its implementation. 3 The third step is devoted to constructing a criterion to quantify the steering properties of a vehicle. The developed formula, which is based on an engineering understanding of how wheel vibration impacts the force interaction between the wheel and road, is proposed for the first time in the current thesis. The formula will serve as a criterion for advanced handling performance of passenger vehicles. The final step is undertaken to formulate optimization problems for finding the suspension system parameters which ensure improved comfort levels as well as admissible steering performance for the vehicle. For the analysis, these two criteria were employed to construct multi-criteria optimization problems and also singlecriteria optimization problems that incorporate both criteria. The developed methodology for the optimization of vehicle suspension systems is tested in a number of numerical examples using power spectral densities of several highways, city roads and country roads in Australia. Thus, it allows to offer recommendations for the optimal tuning of vehicle suspension systems taking into account real road conditions, steering performances and ISO 2631 (1997) standards for comfort levels.

Abstract:
Investigation and testing of hydropneumatic suspension systems has previously been done at Scania between the year 1992 and 2000. Interest has aroused at Scania CV AB to further test a hydropneumatic suspension. The reason being the new ventures of decarbonised, clean, electrified, automatized and digitalised vehicles. If electrified trucks are to be adopted in the market as an alternative to trucks with combustion engines, solutions for this type of vehicle’s capacity need to be presented. The vehicle’s weight needs to be reduced; the effectiveness of the components needs to be increased and alternatives to increase battery storage needs to arise if it’s going match the traveling distance of a combustion engine. The mission of the project is to present an installation solution of a hydropneumatic suspension that retains the performance of the current air suspension. The presented material will contain CAD-models of all the brackets that will be designed to fit the suspension, as well as the placement in the vehicle assembly for said brackets. The results show that as for the front suspension the best solution is a placement of the hydraulic cylinders in front of the vehicles front axle. Furthermore the rear suspension is best suited for a placement of the hydraulic cylinders behind the vehicles rear axle. However it was concluded that the rear suspension will not be able to retain the current stroke of the vehicle without sacrificing its ground clearance. Parts of the suspension could however be terminated when the air suspension system was replaced by the hydropneumatic system namely: The front suspension anti-roll bar, shock absorbers, air springs and their coexisting brackets.

Esse trabalho buscou investigar os comportamentos dinâmicos de uma suspensão eletromecânica. Para a configuração dessa suspensão substitui-se o amortecedor viscoso convencional por um amortecedor do tipo eletromecânico. O amortecedor eletromecânico é formado por um transdutor de imã permanente e bobina móvel, no qual se acopla ao sistema mecânico com o eletromagnético. Nos terminais da bobina é introduzido um circuito elétrico RLC ligados em série. Para modelagem e a obtenção das equações dinâmica que descrevem seu movimento utilizou-se o método de Lagrange, que utiliza expressões de energia. Os modelos abordam absorvedores utilizados na indústria automobilística. No trabalho, primeiramente foi investigado a capacidade dos parâmetros elétricos no comportamento do sistema, e verificou-se a influência que a resistência elétrica e a capacitância tem em relação ao deslocamento da massa suspensa de um veículo. Foi realizada, através da função transferência, uma análise da quantidade de energia obtida no sistema elétrico para valores diferentes de resistência elétrica e em comparação foi verificado o ganho da massa suspensa para um movimento harmônico sofrido pela base. Por fim, investigou-se as potências geradas no circuito elétrico e o fator de potência para diferentes valores de capacitância. E também apurou a influência da resistência elétrica na produção de potência ativa. Os resultados mostraram a influência dos parâmetros elétricos no comportamento dinâmico do sistema e na geração de potência elétrica, assim através de um controle feito nesses parâmetros pode-se encontrar faixas no qual reduz a transmissibilidade de deslocamento para os ocupantes de um veículo e geram uma alta potência elétrica em que possa ser armazenada e utilizada posteriormente.
This work sought to investigate the dynamic behavior of an electromechanical suspension. For the configuration of this suspension it replaces the conventional viscous damper with a shock absorber of the electromechanical type. The electromechanical damper is formed by a permanent magnet transducer and mobile coil, in which it couples the mechanical system with the electromagnetic. At the terminals of the coil is introduced an RLC electric circuit connected in series. For the modeling and the obtaining of the dynamic equations that describe its movement was uses the Lagrange method, that uses expressions of conservation of energy. The models approach in a simplified way the absorbers used in the automotive industry. In the work, it was first investigated the influence of the electrical parameters on the behavior of the system, it was verifies the power of the electrical resistance and the capacitance have in relation to the displacement of the suspended mass of a vehicle. It was performed, through the transfer function, an analysis of the amount of energy obtained in the electrical system is performed for different values of electrical resistance and in comparison it was verifies the gain of the suspended mass for a harmonic movement suffered by the base. Finally, we investigated the powers generated in the electric circuit and the power factor for different capacitance values. It also determined the influence of electrical resistance on the production of active power. The results showed the influence of the electrical parameters on the dynamic behavior of the system and the generation of electric power, so through a control made in these parameters can be found tracks in which reduces the transmissibility of displacement for the occupants of a vehicle and generate a high electrical power where it can be stored and used later.

Abstract:
Thesis (MScEng (Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering))--University of Stellenbosch, 2008.
Suspension seats are commonly used for earth moving machinery to isolate vehicle operators from vibrations transmitted to the vehicle body. To provide the required stiffness and damping for these seats, air-springs are typically used in conjunction with dampers. However, to eliminate the need for additional dampers, air-springs can be used in conjunction with auxiliary air volumes to provide both spring stiffness and damping. The damping is introduced through the flow restriction connecting the two air volumes. In this study, simplified models of an air-spring were derived followed by a model including the addition of an auxiliary volume. Subsequent to simulations, tests were performed on an experimental apparatus to validate the models. The air-spring models were shown to predict the behaviour of the experimental apparatus. The air-spring and auxiliary volume model followed the trend predicted by literature but showed approximately 27 % lower transmissibility amplitude and 21 % lower system natural frequency than obtained by tests when using large flow restriction diameters. This inaccuracy was assumed to be introduced by the simplified mass transfer equations defining the flow restriction between air-spring and auxiliary volume. The models however showed correlation when the auxiliary volume size was decreased by two thirds of the volume actually used for the experiment. This design of a prototype air-spring and auxiliary volume is presented for a suspension seat used in articulated or rigid frame dump trucks. The goal of this study was to design a suspension seat for this application and to obtain a SEAT value below 1,1. The design was optimised by varying auxiliary volume size, flow diameter and load. A SEAT value of less than 0,9 was achieved.

Abstract:
Laminated fibrous micro-composite E-spring is an optimized trend of springs for vehicle suspension systems. The mechanical and frequency-response-based properties of these springs are investigated experimentally at both of the structural and constitutional levels. Thermoplastic-based and thermoset-based fibrous composite structures of the E-springs are modified at micro-scale with various additives and consequently they are compared. The experimental results reveal that additives of micrometer-sized particles of E-glass fibers as well as mineral clay to an ISO-phthalic polyester resin of the micro-composite E-spring can demonstrate superior characteristics that can surpass those of the traditional steel springs. Accordingly, micro-composite E-springs can displace both of the hydraulic dampers and steel springs in both of the passive and semi-active suspension systems in a reliable, simple, and cost-effective way.

Abstract:
Hybrid Micro-composite E-springs are an optimized trend of springs first introduced to vehicle suspension systems. At first, a comparison between E-shape and other spring shapes is held theoretically. This theoretical comparison is verified numerically. The E-shape has proved to be the best shape in this comparison striking a balance between spring vertical deflection and maximum induced stress. Next, shape optimization of a hybrid micro-composite E-spring is conducted. At last, a thermoplastic-based hybrid micro-composite structure of the optimized E-spring is modified at micro-scale with additives of micrometer-sized particles of mineral clay. The proposed spring is presented in new passive and semi-active suspension mechanisms, displacing and remedying drawbacks of both the hydraulic dampers and steel springs.

Abstract:
FSAE is a competition in which engineering students are asked to conceive, design, fabricate and compete with small, formula style, autocross racing cars ([1]). To give teams the maximum design flexibility and the freedom to express their creativity and imaginations there are very few restrictions on the overall vehicle design. DynamiΣ team (from Politecnico di Milano) has designed and optimized a new leaf spring suspension that allows to significantly reduce the weight and lower the centre of gravity of traditional suspensions that are based on linear dampers and coil springs. In fact, besides being extremely adjustable, the proposed leaf spring suspension weights a half, being made of carbon fiber and aluminum sandwich, and lowers the centre of gravity of the suspension system, being placed below the vehicle frame.

Abstract:
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Vehicle suspension systems that adopt Hotchkiss layout are commonly based on leaf springs. For better comfort for passengers, some features such as rubber pads are used on the springs to reduce noise from metallic contact between leaves, but those pads can compromise the durability of the spring if not well designed or located in the spring assembly, as we will demonstrate on this paper. To do so, it will be presented comparisons using CAE methodology and physical parts test results from vehicle and bench testing which were loaded in different conditions to demonstrate how the rubber pad position can influence the durability of the spring, especially near the eyelet region for some specific load conditions. The case studies presented here are focused on the impact of the rubber pads on durability life of springs, but not defined as root cause of failures.</div></div>

Abstract:
It is well known that progressiveness of the damping characteristic of vehicle suspension is a highly desirable feature that substantially improves shock absorption transmitted from the road wheels to the body of a vehicle. It is also well known that progressive rate vehicle suspensions with smooth (i.e. differentiable) damping characteristic commonly in use are pneumatic and hydro-pneumatic ones. However, these suspensions are inferior to steel ones in many aspects such as strength, durability, reliability and cost, and their damping characteristic, being determined by the thermodynamic properties (adiabatic exponent) of the gas (air or nitrogen) they utilize, cannot be freely adjusted and is far from optimum. There are also some progressive rate vehicle suspensions fitted with steel springs, but they usually features inferior non-differentiable damping characteristic. The problem of constructing purely mechanical steel progressive rate vehicle suspension has been undertaken by many inventors, but none of such suspensions proposed in the past was a success. This is due to the fact that those suspensions used unreliable and perishable cam mechanisms to achieve required non-linearity of damping characteristic. In the present article we briefly discuss an innovative recently patented [1-4] vehicle suspension, that produces progressive rate smooth damping characteristic out of linear characteristic of steel spring of any kind, which damping characteristic can be adjusted to any specific requirements, and which features extraordinarily compact and robust structure. It is to be stressed that the suspension presented in this paper has yet not been tested in a vehicle, but some measurements has been made using a steel model of a "flat" version of the suspension mechanism proving general assumptions behind the design.
