In this paper, a design optimization technique is presented for determining the stiffness and the damping coefficient of the shock absorber that is used in the Gullwing door system of passenger car. The contact force between the shock absorber and stopper link, when the door is opened, is set up as objective function, and the stiffness and the damping coefficient are set up as design variables. ADAMS optimization module (SQP method) is applied in the design optimization process. This study shows that the stiffness and the damping coefficient of the shock absorber can be effectively determined in initial design stage of the Gullwing door.
