Six Suspension Design Insights by Analysing Suspension Loads (Project 171)

Suspension design is all about managing geometry and forces. Each suspension component experiences different loads, which can be controlled through careful design. In this video, we explore six key insights into the design of double wishbone suspension systems by analysing the forces in each link. We'll briefly explain some of the math involved and provide interesting visualisations of the resultant loads. Once the setup is complete, we'll examine effects such as steering loads, anti-dive, and component design considerations.
