Stability Analysis of Truck Trailer Suspension System

Abstract

This study explores the dynamic analysis of a truck trailer suspension system using MATLAB. The optimization of spring and damping parameters is conducted, and the system's performance is evaluated through various analyses, including root locus, step response, and Bode plot. The method in this research uses a descriptive quantitative method approach to the truck trailer suspension system. The results demonstrate a stable and efficient dynamic response, indicating the successful optimization of system parameters. The interplay between springs and dampers is investigated, providing insights for enhancing the overall performance of the suspension system. The practical implications of the findings are discussed in the context of real-world applications, particularly in the automotive industry
