On-Road Ride Comfort Test and Simulation Analysis of Passenger Cars with Emphasis on Indian Suburban and Rural Road Conditions

This paper incorporates the on-road real time ride comfort testing and simulation analysis of the typical passenger cars. The main objective is to analyze the vibrations to the passenger’s seat through the irregularities on road surface. This analysis is carried out with the help state-of-the-art of FFT analyzer for different classes of passenger car for variety of road conditions which have been validated by simulation analysis in the 20-Sim simulation software.
