Modeling of elastomeric engine mounts for commercial vehicles

• In this paper, a model of the conventional engine mount is developed and the nonlinear behavior of dynamic stiffness and damping of the engine mounts of commercial vehicles are investigated. The model comprises elastic, viscous and friction functional components and expresses the stiffness and damping of the mount as a function of frequency and amplitude of harmonic excitation. Optimization is done to identify model parameters using measurements for real elastomeric engine mounts.
