Tire footprint analysis depending on the elastokinematics of a multi-link suspension system using multi-body dynamics simulation (bibtex)
by Sergej Kohl, Walter Sextro, Armin Zuber
Abstract:
An automotive suspension system represents one of the most complex and important systems in a passenger vehicle, which has to ensure a robust and optimized contact between the wheels and the road at any time. For improving a suspension system it is important to take an investigative look at the interaction between suspension, tire and road dynamics. Thus a part of a study into aspects of suspension modeling on multi-body simulations of rear multi-link suspension system dynamics with focus on the tire footprint area is presented in this work.
