Summary: | 碩士 === 大葉大學 === 機械工程研究所碩士班 === 96 === Buggies are sports vehicles designed specially for the off-road adventurous activities. Because it is intended for driving over the terrains with a variety of different characteristics and challenges, the issue of improving the driving comfort becomes an important demand in its chassis deign. In this study, both the finite element analysis using ANSYS and the dynamic simulation using ADAMS were adopted in the static and dynamic investigations of the frame and whole vehicle. A technique in finding the equivalent spring constant, beside the suspension spring, to accommodate the flexibility of the frame was proposed. This simplification would facilitate the use of rigid-body model of the whole vehicle in the simulation using ADAMS. Different modifications on the frame design and their performances simulated by driving over different road configurations were used to evaluate and decide the direction for improving the driving comfort of this class of vehicles
