Abstract

Due to the weight deviation between derived vehicle model and the original one, it is necessary to determine whether to maintain the original performance or re-design it when designing its performance parts. The vehicle model is established in ADAMS by taking a Geely’s vehicle as the object. Adjusted according to the pre-set weight range of 3, 5 and 10 %, the model’s K&C, riding comfort, steering stability are simulated and equivalent cornering stiffness can be calculated to compare the results with that of the original one. When the change of axle load or vehicle weight are higher than 5 %, its suspension K&C and vehicle performance obviously differ from the original one, thus the relative performance parts needs to be redeveloped since performance parts cannot meet the requirements.
