Suspension system in automobile . Need , How it works (operation) ?
Suspension is the system of tires, tire air, springs, shock absorbers and linkages that connects a vehicle to its wheels and allows relative motion between the two.
Suspension systems must support both roadholding/handling and ride quality which are at odds with each other.
* roadholding= the ability of a vehicle to remain stable when moving, especially when cornering at high speeds.
* handling =Automobile handling and vehicle handling are descriptions of the way a wheeled vehicle responds and reacts to the inputs of a driver, as well as how it moves along a track or road
The tuning of suspensions involves finding the right compromise.
It is important for the suspension to keep the road wheel in contact with the road surface as much as possible, because all the road or ground forces acting on the vehicle do so through the contact patches of the tires.
The suspension also protects the vehicle itself and any cargo or luggage from damage and wear. The design of front and rear suspension of a car may be different.
