description A rigid-flexible dynamics model is built. In view of established 7-DOF vibration model, the expressions of the output indexes are derived and the influence mechanism of suspension parameters on ride comfort is revealed. The effects of different vehicle speeds on ride comfort on bump road are studied in the frequency and time domains by analyzing the suspension dynamic disturbance by taking the vertical acceleration of the foot floor and seat rail, the wheel dynamic loads, and the suspension dynamic deflections of the suspension as the objects of analysis. The effects of dynamic changes in the suspension spring and damper parameters on the time and frequency domain response indices are analyzed. Two window functions are used on the bump road to process and analyze the time domain charts of the front and rear of foot floors and seat rails in the vertical direction, and the Rms values of the global and local vibrations of the foot floor and seat rail obtained are used as one of the evaluation indicators of ride comfort. The evaluation index of the total vehicle considering local and global vibration is determined, and the suspension parameters are collaboratively optimized by genetic algorithm to improve vehicle ride comfort.
