commenting out "intro" which seems to be plagiarised

hierarchy done in wiki native formatting, someone had done it with a <span> and font size command, lmao

 In table 1 we presented the importance of having a suspension and a damping system. With that in mind the next step is to select our spring and dampers. When choosing those a first common application is to define what are the goals for the suspension system. For example, are we trying to improve the tire’s mechanical grip or maintaining the vehicle’s aerodynamic platform?
 =Purpose of a suspension=
 The automotive industry uses different kinds of suspension systems. Important criteria are cost, weight, performance, packaging, manufacturing, kinematic properties and compliance attributes. A suspension and damping system can serve multiple purposes. Some of the reasons for having one are described in the table below.

−	For automotive applications, a vehicle suspension allows the controlled movement of the wheels relative to the vehicle body. In order to control it, passive, semi-active and/or active components are introduced. These enable the suspension system to adapt to various driving conditions. In most vehicles, this is achieved with a passive compliant structure (suspension). The vehicle suspension system consists of wishbones, springs, and shock absorbers to transmit and filter all forces between the body and road. If a vehicle has a passive suspension it will tend to oscillate under given inputs. To reduce the amount and duration of oscillation, some form of damping is required.
