Semi-Active Control of the Macpherson Suspension System: Hardware- in-the-Loop Simulations
نویسنده
چکیده
A modified skyhook control for the semi-active Macpherson suspension system is considered. A new quarter-car model, which incorporates the rotational motion of the unsprung mass, is introduced. A feedback control law in the form of a modified skyhook control is derived. Two filters to estimate the absolute velocity of the sprung mass and the relative velocity of the rattle space are designed. By including the actual semi-active damper in the loop of computer simulation, the nonlinearity, time-delay, and unmodeled dynamics of the continuously variable damper have been incorporated. The control performances of the semi-active system and a passive one have been compared.

Modified Skyhook Control of Semi-Active Suspensions: A New Model, Gain Scheduling, and Hardware-in-the-Loop Tuning
In this paper, a road adaptive modified skyhook control for the semi-active Macpherson strut suspension system of hydraulic type is investigated. A new control-oriented model, which incorporates the rotational motion of the unsprung mass, is introduced. The control law extends the conventional skyhook-groundhook control scheme and schedules its gains for various road conditions. Using the verti...

Aerodynamic load simulators generate the required time varying load to test the actuator’s performance in the laboratory. Electric Load Simulator (ELS) as one of variety of the dynamic load simulators should follows the rotation of the Under Test Actuator (UTA) and applies the desired torque to UTA’s rotor at the same time. In such a situation, a very large torque is imposed to the ELS from the...
