Abstract

In this paper, the design of experiment, so called "Taguchi Method", is applied to parametric optimization on handling and stability of a bus. By this method, the efficiency of analysis about effects of various kinds of parameters can be raised greatly. The parameters used in calculation include those of the basic layout, tire and suspension. The calculated results are verified by the particular experiments. In future, the other design parameters will be analyzed in detail with the ADAMS model.
