ResumoEntre as etapas do desenvolvimento de automóveis pode-se apontar a definição das características de suas suspensões. A fase de definição da suspensão pode ser dividida dentro do seguinte cenário: a escolha de um determinado tipo de suspensão, os pontos (geometria) e quais os valores de rigidez / amortecimento para todo o sistema irá resultar em um comportamento dinâmico desejado para o veículo, bem como a viabilidade de produção.Além disso, o entendimento da interação entre os parâmetros de suspensão, é crucial para a otimização do desempenho. Este trabalho pretende propor um método para aperfeiçoar a fase and what values of stiffness/damping for the whole system will result in a desired dynamic behavior for the vehicle as well as production feasibility. Moreover, understanding the iteration among the suspension parameters, even considering just the tuning ones, is crucial for performance optimization. This work intends to propose a method for vehicle tuning characteristics optimization, having as a target the ride comfort. The vehicle considered here is a commercial truck, and among its parameters one considers cabin and suspension springs, cabin dampers and suspension damper curves. A vehicle model was developed in ADAMS environment and prior to the optimization the vehicle was validated against experimental data.Metrics were specially developed to take into account subjective aspects of ride, and, in this way, eliminating the gap between subjective evaluations and simulations analysis. Results showed improvements in ride comfort. The resulting setup was measured and the improvements were confirmed with experimental data.
