Abstract

One of the most important factors that affect the performance of the racing cars are the behaviour and responses of the car suspension. Rolling can reduce the performance of the car due to unnecessary motion that occur such as rolling. This study will help to improve the suspensions of the UTeM FV Malaysia race car so that the car will experience more confidents handling especially while enter and exit from the corner by doing some improvements on the rolling centre of the suspensions. By using current UTeM FV Malaysia racing car as a reference and FSAE rules as our guidance, an improvement on suspension has taken place using related CAD software through simulation. Most of racing car use double wishbone suspension link as their suspension system due to its advantages. The current suspension design is analysed using Altair Multi Body Dynamic – Motion View, and the result will be used for optimization. In conclusion, the result from optimization must be better compared to existing to ensure the objective to reduce rolling on the car is achieved.
