Review on Simulation and Optimization of Vehicle Ride Comfort Based on Suspension Model

Abstract

At present, commercial software of the multi-body dynamics is widely used in the research of vehicle ride comfort simulation and optimization. This paper reviews some literatures on vehicle ride comfort optimization based on ADAMS, and focuses on the research based on suspension models. The suspension rigid-flexible coupling models and the simulation research about optimizing suspension model parameters to achieve multi-objective optimization are the main areas of concern. Finally, the paper is summarized and the future trend of ADAMS applied to the simulation and optimization of vehicle ride comfort is prospected.
