The consecutive speed-control humps (SCHs) possess the function of controlling speed forcibly, but cause violent vibration of a vehicle inevitably. This paper tries to further explore the inherent link among parameters of the SCHs, velocity and vehicle vibration. A 4-DOF nonlinear half-vehicle model with nonlinear springs and nonlinear dampers is established. The consecutive SCHs-speed coupling...

A mathematical model of a vehicle dynamic system capable of predicting ride comfort can be a useful tool for vehicle design and development engineers at the concept design stage. The aim of this study was to develop a simple mathematical model of a vehicle with seat and occupant to investigate how vehicle dynamic parameters affect the vibration transmission and ride quality. A 13 degrees-offree...

In this paper, multi-objective uniform-diversity genetic algorithm (MUGA) with a diversity preserving mechanism called the ε-elimination algorithm is used for Pareto optimization of 5-degree of freedom vehicle vibration model considering the five conflicting functions simultaneously. The important conflicting objective functions that have been considered in this work are, namely, vertical accel...

The primary function of a suspension system of a vehicle is to isolate the road excitations experienced by the tires from being transmitted to the passengers. In this paper, we formulate an optimal vehicle suspension design problem with the quarter-car vehicle dynamic model. A new multi-objective genetic algorithm is used for Pareto optimization of a two-degree of freedom vehicle vibration mode...

Helical springs within the primary suspension are critical components for isolating the whole vehicle system from vibration generated at the wheel/rail contact. As train speeds increase, the frequency region of excitation becomes larger, and a simplified static stiffness can no longer represent the real stiffness property in a vehicle dynamic model. Coil springs in particular exhibit strong int...

by new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. in present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. the method is similar to classical multilevel tpa methods but has distinct differences. the method is named vivs which stands for vehicle interior vibration s...

With the trend of lighter vehicle and more powerful engine (power plant) passengers are subjected to large vibration and harshness coming from the engine through the chassis. This paper discusses the application of active vibration control to reduce this vibration effect. Using a mass-spring-damper model which represents a passive engine mount, dynamic characteristic of the mount is obtained fo...

To facilitate the damping matching of dampers for vehicle passive suspensions, this paper proposes an analytical matching method of the optimal piecewise linear damping characteristics curve. Based on the vehicle vibration model, taking the suspension dynamic deflection as the constraint, by the vibration acceleration and the wheel dynamic load, an objective function about the relative damping ...

This paper presents a reduce roll vibration of the full vehicle model with passive suspension systems using vibration absorber to change the dynamic system matrix stat’s eigenvalue. Since using the controller system has been splurged and required to energy consuming, in this research the vehicle body roll vibration has been reduced and supplied vehicle stability using a vibration absorber for t...
