Wheel Rate

The calculation of wheel rate for the suspension system can be determined from the plot of vertical force (N) with vertical movement (mm). The vertical load can be requested from the translational joint markers to which vertical motion is applied. The vertical movement is obtained by requesting the displacement between the same markers. The gradient of this curve will give the wheel rate for the suspension (N/mm).
