Abstract

Vibration of a car can be modeled by lumping its mass in the form of sprung and unsprungmasses by using spring and dampers as basic elements of the suspension system. In this project, several car models are generated by SolidWorks and analyzed. The first model has bounce-only. The second model has both bouncing and pitching motions simultaneously. Finally, the bounce, pitch, and roll model is generated. The first two have also been analyzed theoretically. The results of the two methods of solution have been compared as a means of verification.
