ABSTRACT

In this paper, a successful approach for the vibration analysis of quarter car suspension system using random and step function road profiles, by developing a new graphical user interface (GUI), has been introduced. The main objective of the paper is to show the usefulness and power of Malab GUI in modeling and analyzing dynamic behavior of quarter car suspension system. The second purpose of this paper is to carry out an analysis of using the developed GUI to simulate this system. Illustrated problems in the field of analysis of suspension responses for the quarter car models are carried out. The results show that the developed GUI is very useful for engineers, designers, and analysts of car suspension systems.
