What will I learn?
This Mechanics Course provides a quick, hands-on way to boost suspension performance and ride comfort. You'll learn to model a single wheel corner, calculate static deflection, natural frequency, and damping ratio, then apply them straight to actual bakkies. Practice choosing springs, shocks, bushings, and tyre pressures with straightforward processes, simple checks, and solid data, ensuring every tweak is assured and trackable.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Build vehicle mass-spring-damper models: convert actual components into neat ODEs.
- Diagnose ride problems swiftly: connect shocks, springs, and tyres to observed issues.
- Tune damping and spring rate: strike a balance between comfort, handling, and tyre grip.
- Compute static and natural frequencies: forecast sag, bounce, and vibration ranges.
- Use real bakkie data: estimate wheel loads and select workable suspension options.
