SELECTION OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VERTICAL RIGIDITY OF THE SUSPENSION OF A VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH AN ANTISLIP SYSTEM

The use of antislip systems in braking systems and the effect of changing the vertical rigidity of a vehicle suspension during braking makes it necessary to select the characteristics of the vertical rigidity of a vehicle suspension with care. This paper presents a method for selecting these characteristics fulfilling the given parameters of vertical vibration of a suspended mass during braking with the antislip system. The method takes into account the effect of changing the vertical rigidity of a vehicle suspension during braking, and is based on human vibration immunity.
