CAD Design and Modelling of Suspension Unit for Increasing Stability of a Four Wheeler

This article discusses the significance of adaptive control of the modified suspension arm over the existing standard suspension strut used in the four wheeler suspension assembly. The objective is to increase control over vehicle during a sharp turn. In this paper we have compared the major aspects of safety and vehicle control during cornering at increased speeds. While making the modifications, the existing conventional suspension system is retained, adding a new component which can certainly adapt according to changing conditions of load on vehicle. This gives more flexibility to the un-sprung mass which lies over the suspension assembly to counteract with incoming unbalanced forces at corners. The conditions could be simulated by use of software before using it in actual prototype. The main advantage of this modification is reduced chances of body roll even at high speed corners.
