Suspension bridge types simple suspension bridges and suspended-deck suspension bridges, and excludes self-anchored suspension bridges. Some suspension bridges are of unusual hybrid types. Among these are suspension bridges that have an "intermediate deck". These bridges have a portion of deck that resembles an underspanned suspension bridge. Some of the earliest suspended-deck suspension bridges were of this type, and they continue to be constructed. Examples constructed in the 20th century include a viaduct over the river Oberargen near Wangen, Germany. A span of the viaduct has a cable support below the deck, with one end of the cable anchored at a pier and the
Automotive suspension design a Bundorf analysis. Typically a vehicle designer is operating within a set of constraints. The suspension architecture selected for each end of the vehicle will have to obey those constraints. For both ends of the car this would include the type of spring, location of the spring, and location of the shock absorbers. For the front suspension the following need to be considered For the rear suspension there are many more possible suspension types, in practice. The hardpoints control the static settings and the kinematics of the suspension. The static settings are The kinematics describe how important characteristics change as
