A Global Technical And Manufacturer Review Of Automotive Chassis Systems
just-auto, Dec 2005, Pages: 59
A vehicles chassis system is a determining factor when it comes to handling characteristics, influencing vehicle driving dynamics, comfort, safety, and road holding ability. In this exclusive report, our third study of chassis engineering and systems, we review the currently available technologies and what we could expect to see on tomorrows car. As well as defining the elements of chassis systems, including the history, technology and new product developments of each area, this report provides profiles of the major chassis system manufacturers including Bosch, Delphi and Visteon.
Report coverage
Chapter one provides an introduction.
Chapter two defines the elements of chassis systems - how chassis technology is divided into four main areas: suspension, steering, brakes, and tyres. This section includes current scope and new materials, plus introduces the fifth element that has emerged during the last decade or so - electronic intervention.
Chapter three begins the review of each area in turn. This chapter concentrates on suspension, including basic requirements, suspension linkages, springs, dampers, anti-roll bars and wheels.
Chapter four turns to steering - electric power assisted, steer-by-wire and four-wheel steering.
Chapter five focuses on brakes, including basic requirements , new materials and configurations, automatic parking brakes and brake-by-wire.
Chapter six looks at tyres, their materials and design plus run-tyres, space-saver spare wheels and tyres and tyre pressure monitoring systems.
Chapter seven recognises the latest element of the chassis system - electronic intervention. This includes basic ABS, emergency brake assist, traction control and steering intervention.
Finally, chapter eight provides brief profiles of the major chassis system manufacturers, namely: ArvinMeritor, Bosch, Continental, Delphi, ThyssenKrupp Automotive, TRW Automotive, Visteon and ZF.
