Modified Skyhook Control of Semi-Active Suspensions: A New Model, Gain Scheduling, and Hardware-in-the-Loop Tuning

چکیده
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 vertical acceleration data measured, the road conditions are estimated by using the linearized new model developed. Two filters for estimating the absolute velocity of the sprung mass and the relative velocity in the rattle space are also designed. The hydraulic semi-active actuator dynamics are incorporated in the hardware-in-the-loop tuning stage of the control algorithm developed. The optimal gains for the ISO road classes are discussed. Experimental results are included. @DOI: 10.1115/1.1434265#

The purpose of this paper is to present a new modified parametric algebraic model for MR damper in controlling the semi-active suspension system. Except for its accuracy, modified algebraic model is additionally more preferable in terms of its low computational expenses compared to differential modified Bouc-Wen’s model that is extremely computationally demanding. The control part consists of t...

متن کاملGain Scheduling Waste-gate Control of Turbocharger Using MATLAB & GT-POWER
Turbochargers are used to increase engine manifold air pressure. Control of intake manifold pressure is crucial issue which is done through the speed control of turbocharger, but since it is difficult to directly control the speed of the turbocharger, it is done indirectly through a gate that called the waste gate, which is located in the engine outlet and turbocharger’s turbine inlet. One of t...
