What is missing?
In order to reduce the number of elements, the bellows connecting the cavities and the two-phase pipe were removed.They were replaced with lamped stiffness (6x6 matrix)

Shock absorber performancesSome doubts
• Pitch, Roll and Heave NM haveresonances in the range 2-5 Hz.
• The amplitude of the resonancepeak is determined consideringsprings datasheet
May the TT resonances match the truck loading bed resonances, causing large springs travel?
Stiffer springs would move the TT resonances at higher frequency,
avoiding matching with truck resonances, but should reduce the
filtering effect Charge 2.2
