The fundamental principles are no rocket science. For long structural elements such as struts, rods, arms etc. the stress comes mostly from flection and bracing. Both depends very much on the length of the element. We can consider that even driveshafts and their joints are probably more stressed because of more extreme working angles in long-travel suspension.

I know the fundamental principles. Perhaps I'm wrong or all depends of the construction as I said initially. I can't make up some engineering formula right now, I'm just a fan ameteur :)
