Kinematical Analysis and Structural Parameter Optimization of McPherson Suspension

Kinematical characteristic of McPherson suspension that affects vehicle's performances such as steering characteristics,handling qualities,riding comfort and service life of tire depend on how well the structural parameters of McPherson suspension were identified.Using the method of instantaneous center and coordinate transformation the relationship between spatial geometry,kinematical characteristic of McPherson suspension was analyzed based on the spatial kinematics and numerical calculation.In order to analyze the suspension kinematics characteristics,a mathematical model was built,and optimized the structure of McPherson suspension by using the genetic algorithms method.The optimization results showed that GA methods were flexible and powerful search techniques for obtaining a better and a more realistic solution compared to the classical optimization techniques and it is improved compared with the conventional designs.
