Abstract

This paper presents a comparison of wheelbase filtering effect and suspension tuning between two-axle and triaxle vehicle. Interference angle, introduced to account for the conflict between bouncing motion and pitching motion, is used to study the responses of the tri-axle vehicle. Olley tuning, the recommended suspension design rule, is found to be not as suitable for suspension design of tri-axle vehicle with tandem suspension as for two-axle vehicle. At higher vehicle speeds, identical suspension design is effective to suppress pitching motion. Olley tuning is proved to be bad for pitching motion but good for the bounce response. At lower speeds, Olley tuning is an effective design to improve both pitch response and bounce response at natural frequency.
