This model is a quarter-car five link suspension. The model may be used to understand suspension kinematics (toe, caster, camber, later and longitudinal recession), as well as suspension dynamics (understand load paths when driving over bumpy roads). The model was built in SimMechanics™, and uses Simulink® 3D Animation™ to animate the simulation.
