Thanks for the videos and the PDF, but they are all bicycle related.

A car has a whole sophisticated subsystem dedicated for absorbing vibrations (the suspension), so I'm not sure the results can be applied there...

Oh I was only addressing this:

Road bicycles like the ones used in the Tour de France use pressures in the 120-140 psi range,

Fair enough

Suspension is great for smoothing out low frequency unevenness, but not so much for high frequencies, like something the size of gravel- a spring will ring like a bell.

That's why a suspension is much more than a spring.
