Abstract
BAJA is an off road racing competition conduct by the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) every year. Team of 25 students have to design, build, test and race a high strength single seat All terrain vehicle as per the SAE guidelines. The dynamic events include endurance race, hill climbs, maneuverability events, and suspension & traction events. This paper covers the complete design of the non steerable lower H- Frame suspension system for rear wheel of a BAJA ATV (All Terrain Vehicles). The LSA (Lotus suspension Analysis) software is used for designing suspension geometry and after getting the hard points the CAD modeling is done on Creo 3.0. Hypermesh 13.0 is used for the stress and deformation analysis of the various components of suspension system.
