Abstract

Front double wishbone independent suspension is built according to hard point parameters of a car. After the rubber bushing stiffness of under arm is changed, the suspension performance is analyzed and discussed with multi-body dynamics and Suspension Kinematics theory. The conclusion is drawn that axial and torsion stiffness of rubber bushing has a little effect on the suspension performance, but radical stiffness of rubber bushing has heavy on the suspension performance.
