Description:

In this work, three types of vehicle suspensions were considered and modeled as follows: oil damper mounted in parallel with a compression helical spring, for which a Kelvin-Voigt model, consisted of a dashpot and an elastic element connected in parallel is considered; colloidal damper without attached compression helical spring, for which a Maxwell model, consisted of a dashpot and an elastic element connected in series is considered; and colloidal damper mounted in parallel with a compression helical spring, for which a standard linear model, consisted of a Maxwell unit connected in parallel with an elastic element is considered. Firstly, the vibration transmissibility from the rough road to the vehicle’s body for all these suspensions was determined under the constraint that damping varies versus the excitation frequency. Then, the optimal damping and stiffness ratios were decided in order to minimize the transmissibility of vibration from the rough pavement to the vehicle’s body.
