Multidimensional Optimization of the Steered Wheel Multi-Link Suspension System

One of the stages of designing of the steered wheel multi-link suspension system is a multidimensional synthesis related to the parametrization of its mechanism, complying with imposed constructional and kinematic restrictions. The restrictions referring to the structural configuration of the suspension mechanism in the system related to the car body follow the dimensional analysis of the body, driving system, brake system, steering system, springy and damping elements.

The paper presents a method of determining the locations of the joints connecting the car body with links of the designed suspension system, realizing the kinematic characteristics of camber and steering angles of the wheel, with the assumed accuracy to the required characteristics, complying with certain restrictions.
