Abstract

This paper is devoted to the designing of the laboratory stand for testing car vehicle suspensions. Main parts of the laboratory setup are as follows: a frame construction with vehicle suspension elements, an electro-hydraulic shaker, a hydraulic power supply unit and a measurement and control system. This work provides preliminary analysis of the laboratory setup such as static analysis and dynamic simulations of the system. Results of the calculations were used in the designing process of the laboratory setup.
