The Double Wishbone Independent A-Arm Suspension System is a best choice among all other types of Independent Suspension Systems for enhancing handling, stability, and performance in high-performance vehicles. This study focuses on the design, calculations, and analysis of the suspension system, incorporating direct coil-over spring dampers mounted from the lower A-arm to the chassis at the front and from the upper A-arm to the chassis at the rear, optimizing ride comfort and dynamic response. Lotus Suspension Analysis Software determines the suspension geometry and hard points, calculating camber gain, spring rate, bump load, caster, and roll center for optimal kinematics. The steering knuckle's structural integrity is analysed using ANSYS simulation, evaluating factor of safety (FOS), total deformation, and equivalent stress under dynamic loads. Solidworks software is employed for 3D modelling, ensuring a lightweight yet robust design that balances strength and weight optimization for improved vehicle dynamics. This study provides detailed insights into force distribution and real-world applicability, with Lotus, ANSYS, and SolidWorks ensuring a comprehensive validation of performance parameters, making it ideal for high-performance applications.
