This paper considers the control of a helicopter gearbox electromagnetic suspension for a complete multibody model of the structure. As the new generation of helicopters includes variable engine RPM during flight, it becomes relevant to add active control in their suspension systems. Most of active system performances derive directly from the controller construction, its optimization to the system controlled and the disturbances expected. An investigation on a FXLMS control algorithm has been made to optimize it in terms of narrow band disturbance rejection. In this paper an active suspension based on DAVI principle is evaluated. Firstly, a multibody model is set up to estimate realistic acceleration levels inside the cabin. Then multiple controllers are tested, minimizing vibrations on different parts of the helicopter structure. The simulations tend to prove that it is possible to implement an effective active suspension with a low power actuator and obtain a significant vibration reduction level for a frequency bandwidth centered at the natural frequency of the original DAVI.

The design of a simplified IMPACT (Internal Model Principle and Control Together) structure comprising conventional digital control laws is presented. The design procedure is accomplished to enable the extraction of a known class of immeasurable external disturbances and easy setting of the controller parameters. In the proposed controlling structure, the set point transient response and speed of disturbance rejection can be adjusted independently. The efficiency and robustness of the proposed controlling structure are verified and tested by the simulation and experimental setup.

Asymptotic tracking and disturbance rejection in uncertain nonlinear systems is studied in the context of output feedback control. This study is facilitated by formalizing the notion of k-fold exosystem and generalizing the internal model principle to the nonlinear setting.

The road disturbance rejection problem for vehicle active suspension involving the nonlinear characteristics is researched in this paper. A continuous-time state space of nonlinear vehicle active suspension is established first, in which the road disturbance is generated from the output of an introduced exosystem based on the ground displacement power spectral density. After that, based on the dynamics of road roughness and the internal model principle, a disturbance compensator with zero steady-state error is designed, which is related to the dynamic characteristics of road disturbance and independent of the control system model. By combining the vehicle active suspension system and the designed road disturbance compensator, an augmented system is obtained without explicit indication of road disturbance. Then by solving a series of decoupled nonlinear two-point-boundary-value problem and employing an iterative computing algorithm, an approximation optimal road disturbance rejection controller is obtained. Finally, the simulation results illustrate that the proposed approximation optimal road disturbance rejection controller can reduce the values of sprung mass acceleration, tire deflection, suspension deflection, and energy consumption and compensate the nonlinear behaviors of vehicle active suspension effectively.
