Design, simulation and optimization are key steps in the process of creating optimized prototypes of the truck. Testing of physical prototypes to optimize ride and handling requires substantial amount of manpower, time and financial resources. This thesis uses a methodology for ride and handling optimization of an MTV (Medium Tactical Vehicles) 5.0 Ton truck with modified suspension for U.S.Army.ADAMS (Automatic Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical System) is used as the multibody dynamics software to model the vehicle. Inputs and outputs (responses) are selected to evaluate ride and handling of the truck. Dynamic simulations of the truck are run for the chosen maneuvers for selected suspension and tire parametric variations. Performance measures for ride and handling evaluation along with the design parameters form the design space. This design space is then exported to the flexible optimization architecture. Dominance filtering is used to filter out the designs which are dominated by the other designs in the design space with respect to the all the selected performance measures. The visualization environment provides two dimensional scatter plots for the performance measures and/or design parameters to help the user to find complex relationships between them.The final optimized design selection is dependent on the criteria’s selected to optimize ride and handling for the truck by making desired tradeoffs. Appropriate tire pressure are found for a given sprung mass to optimize ride and handling for the truck. 2004 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1421156836 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1421156836 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
