Mathematical models of shear springs (IM-DOS-115)

Last updated on 31 May 2013 12:01

Spring components which carry vertical loads, and are given the freedom to shear and provide a lateral suspension, need to be modelled with care. Confusion can arise regarding the effective action points of devices such as swing links and air springs. Furthermore, in a model with roll freedoms, the resolved...
