Equation 2 is a quadratic in s and thus it has two roots which give two
solutions to equation (1) and thus the general solution to equation (1) can be
written as:

MATLAB Example-1
Consider m = 200kg, k = 23584 N/m and c = 554 Ns/m, and initial
displacement and velocity to be 0 m and 1.4 m/s respectively (Rao, 2010). Using
analytical solutions, Figure 3 shows the system response in time domain and
phase plane.
The MATLAB code for this example is given in Appendix
As can be observed from Figure 3 that the system response is oscillatory
and exponentially decaying and thus the system is underdamped, the MATLAB
codes also calculates the value of

Vehicle mass is 1200 kg, suspension system has spring constant of 400 kN/m
and a damping factor of 0.5. If the vehicle speed is 20 km/hr and the road surface

shown in Figure 14 and Figure 15. The MATLAB code and Simulink model to
solve this problem is given in Appendix A.
As can be observed, that as soon as the vehicle strikes the step the
sprung mass acceleration shoots up to 4 m/s 2 from 0 m/s2 due to the impact and
gradually decays exponentially to zero as time progresses. Since vehicle sprung
mass acceleration is related to the ride comfort of the vehicle it is one of the most
important parameter to study in case of vehicle vibration.
