  6. 4. Target-driven road vehicle suspension design

    Author : Yansong Huang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kinematics; compliance; reverse design; target; suspension;

    Abstract : This thesis is focused on suspension hardpoint and bushing compliance design with new reverse engineering methods that are based on kinematics and compliance constraints. The kinematic reverse design method is implemented into a conceptual front axle development. The results show that, using this method, the design lead time is reduced by half. READ MORE

  7. 5. Electrification of Private Mobility: Driving Patterns, Multi-Car Households and Infrastructure
