TOPIC SUMMARY EXAMPLE

Vehicular Systems

McCosh, Dan. (1986). No-springs, no-shocks. Popular science. 444 (6), 60-63.

The author believes active suspension will replace springs and shocks with a computer and high-speed hydraulics. The primary benefit of the system is to isolate one suspension characteristic from another. Essentially, MacPherson struts are replaced with hydraulic struts which can react within 3/1000 second, and can cycle up to 1500 times/minute. A computer responds to tiny changes in body and wheel movement by controlling double-acting struts. As well as sensing bumps, the system reads the forces acting on the car body preventing it from banking to the outside of a curve. The idea of active suspension is credited to Britain's great interest in its application. American auto manufacturers have characterized the system as expensive, noisy, and consuming power, however, it may appear on some "expensive" U.S. automobiles.

Reaction

This article had good appeal for automobile enthusiasts who want to keep abreast of the latest technology. The reporting of this innovative suspension system was very consistent and well documented through interviews. Several pictures of the system components were shown as well as a pictorial schematic of the complete suspension system. Upon reading this article, anyone would have a good working knowledge of the computer controlled suspension.
