Suspension & Steering Geometry (Front) | 4 Wheeler | Double Wishbone | Anti-Ackerman
A Square C & D

Intermediate
In this video tutorial, i have shown how to make Front Suspension and Steering geometry of a 4 wheeler. Here, I have taken an All terrain Vehicle(ATV) suspension and steering system for reference, but same approach can be applied while designing for Standard cars and other vehicles. Only the parameters will change according to the type and dynamics of the vehicle. Suspension type- Double Wishbone Steering geometry type- Anti-ackerman Model link:- https://grabcad.com/library/suspension-and-steering-geometry-4-wheeler-1 Basic Parameters used :- 1. Wheelbase= 55 inches 2. Trackwidth= 52 inch (Front and Rear same) 3.Front Ground clearance= 15 inches 4. Rear Ground clearance= 14 inches 5. KPI angle= 7° 6. Castor angle= 12° 7. Knuckle length= 6 inches 8. Spindle length= 120 mm 9. Spindle length (for wheel nut)= 75 mm 10. Steering Arm length= 80 mm 11. Steering Arm angle with spindle= 110° 12. Tyre Outer Diameter= 23 inches Please note that these parameters are used just for educating and learning purpose. Concrete calculations and certain other important factors related to Vehicle dynamics and Handling along with suspension analysis are considered and performed before designing any suspension and steering system of any vehicle. But these values are close to the standard industry values. I also used them in various college level projects. So they can be used as reference values.

Let us tell you about the "Generator Triangle" method. This educational video unveils a straightforward technique to construct regular polygons using a single variable. Witness triangles seamlessly transform into polygons with adjustable sides. Explore parametric design principles as we dissect the process. With interactive visuals, grasp the method's accessibility for all learners. Ideal for students, artists, and those curious about the synergy of creativity and logic. Join us to demystify theoretical geometry, revealing practical polygon creation through "The Little Triangle That Could."

Intermediate
In this video tutorial you can learn how to reuse geometry from one model to another. The best practice is if you create Publish geometry on a reference model and then you will Copy this geometry to source model. Note: Copy geometry from 1st model to 2nd model Publish Geometry can include: surfaces, curves, datum features, etc.
