This study assesses the dynamic performance of the semi-active quarter car vehicle under random road conditions through a new approach. The monotube MR damper is modelled using non-parametric method based on the dynamic characteristics obtained from the experiments. This model is used as the variable damper in a semi-active suspension. In order to control the vibration caused under random road excitation, an optimal sliding mode controller (SMC) is utilised. Particle swarm optimisation (PSO) is coupled to identify the parameters of the SMC. Three optimal criteria are used for determining the best sliding mode controller parameters which are later used in estimating the ride comfort and road handling of a semi-active suspension system. A comparison between the SMC, Skyhook, Ground hook and PID controller suggests that the optimal parameters with SMC have better controllability than the PID controller. SMC has also provided better controllability than the PID controller at higher road roughness.

Passive Suspension System

The main purpose of vehicle suspension system is to isolate the vehicle main body from any road geometrical irregularity in order to improve the passengers ride comfort and to maintain good handling stability. The present work aim at designing a control system for an active suspension system to be applied in today’s automotive industries. The design implementation involves construction of a state space model for quarter car with two degree of freedom and a development of full state-feedback controller. The performance of the active suspension system was assessed by comparing it response with that of the passive suspension system. Simulation using Matlab/Simulink environment shows that, even at resonant frequency the active suspension system produces a good dynamic response and a better ride comfort when compared to the passive suspension system.

Work First

A semi-active suspension variable damping control strategy for heavy vehicles is proposed in this work. First, a nine-degree-of-freedom model of a semi-active suspension of heavy vehicles and a stochastic road input mathematical model are established. Second, using a 1/6 vehicle as an example, a semi-active suspension system with damping that can be adjusted actively is designed using proportional relief and throttle valves. The damping dynamic characteristics of the semi-active suspension system and the time to establish the damping force are studied through a simulation. Finally, a variable damping control strategy based on an actuator motion state is proposed to adjust the damping force of the semi-active suspension system actively and therefore satisfy the vibration reduction requirements of different roads. Results show that the variable damping control suspension can substantially improve vehicle ride comfort and handling stability in comparison with a passive suspension.

Abstract A continuous saturated controller using smooth saturation functions is established for MacPherson active suspension system which includes nonlinear uncertainties, unknown road excitations, and bounded disturbances. The developed controller exploits the properties of the hyperbolic functions to guarantee saturation limits are not exceeded, while stability analysis procedures of the robust integral of the sign of the error (RISE) control technique utilize the advantages of high gain control strategies in compensating for unknown uncertainties. The saturated controller guarantees asymptotic regulation of the sprung mass acceleration to improve the ride comfort despite model uncertainties and additive disturbances in the dynamics. Simulation results demonstrate the improvement in the ride comfort while tire deflection and the suspension deflection are within admissible range in comparison with three other suspensions.
