The hydraulic suspension system is an important system of modular assembled trailer, which is used to turn trailer, control chassis frame height and make trailer comfortable. Therefore, the parts durability of suspension system has been required for service life and safety starting in design. Durability analysis on the parts of hydraulic suspension system is performed in this paper, including linear static analysis and fatigue life analysis. The vibration characteristics of finite element model are determined, which is verified by vibration measuring experiment. The fatigue life of suspension system parts is calculated by stress-life method with the effects of the road roughness and trailer speeds are considered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
