Investigation of Vibrations Energy Harvesting from Passive Car Suspension Using Quarter Car Model Under Bump Excitation

Comparative Analysis of Passive and Semi-Active Suspension System for Quarter Car Model using PID Controller

In this paper the importance of self tuning adaptive PID control scheme for automotive suspension system is explained. The objective of this study is to obtain a mathematical model for the passive and semi-active suspension system for quarter car model. Current automobile suspension system employs springs and damper with fixed coefficient. Vehicle suspension systems are typically rated by their...

Optimization of nonlinear quarter car suspension–seat–driver model

In this paper a nonlinear quarter car suspension-seat-driver model was implemented for optimum design. A nonlinear quarter car model comprising of quadratic tyre stiffness and cubic stiffness in suspension spring, frame, and seat cushion with 4 degrees of freedom (DoF) driver model was presented for optimization and analysis. Suspension system was aimed to optimize the comfort and health criter...

Simulation OF Quarter Car Model

The automobile suspension’s design incorporates three conflict criteria’s which are road handling, load carrying and passenger comfort. All these suspensions systems are generally require maintaining vehicle stability by reducing the effect of dynamic loads. The response of system is simulated by using the software “Symbol’s Shakti”. The bond graph model of the system with active and passive su...

Dynamic Response of 2 Dof Quarter Car Passive Suspension System (qc-pss) and 2 Dof Quarter Car Electrohydraulic Active Suspension System (qc-eh-ass)

Fuzzy Control of a Quarter-Car Suspension System

An active suspension system has been proposed to improve the ride comfort. A quarter-car 2 degree-of-freedom (DOF) system is designed and constructed on the basis of the concept of a four-wheel independent suspension to simulate the actions of an active vehicle suspension system. The purpose of a suspension system is to support the vehicle body and increase ride comfort. The aim of the work des...
