Effects of particle shape and flexibility on suspension dynamics
… these systems, it is important to predict the suspension properties for a given particle specification. We study this question theoretically, focusing on two classes of DNA particles; nano-stars and nun-chucks. Nano-stars are constructed from straight, rigid rods joined at fixed angles, to form …

Implications of nonlinear suspension behaviour for feedforward control of road noise in cars
… is the behaviour of nonlinear components in the suspension. The purpose of this research is to identify potential sources of nonlinearity in a car’s suspension and investigate their influence on the propagation of structure-borne road noise into the cabin. The details of experiments and …

Evaluation of Wave-Adaptive Modular Vessel Suspension Systems for Improved Dynamics
A study is conducted to test the dynamics of the 33ft Wave-Adaptive Modular Vessel (WAM-V) when outfitted with different suspension systems. Instrumented with an array of sensors, the vessel is tested with two different suspension arrangements to characterize how they affect WAM-V dynamics, and to …

Low-Speed Maneuverability, High-Speed Roll-Stability, and Brake Type Performance of Heavy Truck 33-ft Double Trailers
… type influence on RSC performance, and roll dynamics in a combined braking and turning maneuver. A braking robot is designed, fabricated, and implemented to provide precise and repeatable brake pedal application. Test results suggest that disc brakes tend to provide reduced braking distance …

Multi-body Dynamics Simulation and Analysis of Wave-adaptive Modular Vessels
… design. This thesis presents a set of multi-body dynamics simulation models created for two active WAM-Vs™ along with analysis on their suspension characteristics. Both models provide conclusive and realistic results, with the final model being validated against on-water testing data from a 12-ft …
