Simulation of Suspensions, Torsion Bars, and Fifth Wheel for Semitrailers Using Finite Elements

The objective of this paper is the simulation of some different types of elements for semitrailers, like the suspension, both mechanical with springs and pneumatic with a spring anddiapresses; other parts like the wheels, the torsion bars, the fifth wheel and the suspension of the tractor unit have...
