초록

In this paper, an optimum design technology is developed to find an optimal position of the shock absorber using ADAMS and VisualDOC. A vehicle with a torsion-beam rear suspension is modeled by using ADAMS. Design variables for the optimal positioning of the shock absorber are defined considering the hard points of the chassis structure and design positioning are specified through the sensitivity analysis using a bump-crossing simulation. The objective function is defined as the joint reaction forces of the shock absorber connecting joints of the chassis structure. Sequential Quadratic Programming and Genetic Algorithms are used for this study. To validate the optimized design variables, pothole simulations are performed. GA showed better results than SQP algorithms for this design purpose.
