The paper focuses on the practical implementation of a new robust control method to an automotive active suspension system using skyhook and adaptive active force control (SANAFC) strategy. The overall control system essentially comprises four feedback control loops to cater for a number of specific taks. Neural networks (NN) with modified adaptive Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) learning algorithms w...

This paper introduces a theoretical investigation of active vehicle suspension system using sliding mode control (SMC) algorithm to enhance the ride comfort and vehicle stability under parameters uncertainty. SMC algorithm is a nonlinear control technique that regulates the dynamics of linear and nonlinear systems using a discontinuous control signal. The proposed control algorithm forces the s...

With the development of technology, new materials have been invented, which have been applied to improve the performance of structures. Recently, researchers pay their attention to controllable fluids and its applications. Magneto rheological (MR) damper is a kind of devices that uses rheological fluids to modify their mechanical properties. Their mechanical simplicity, large dynamic range, low...

This paper uses a quarter model of an automobile having passive and semiactive suspension systems to develop a scheme for an optimal suspension controller. Semi-active suspension is preferred over passive and active suspensions with regard to optimum performance within the constraints of weight and operational cost. A fuzzy logic controller is incorporated into the semi-active suspension system...

Suspension system plays an imperative role in retaining the continuous road wheel contact for better road holding. In this paper, fuzzy self-tuning of PID controller is designed to control of active suspension system for quarter car model. A fuzzy self-tuning is used to develop the optimal control gain for PID controller (proportional, integral, and derivative gains) to minimize suspension work...

The topic of this paper is the design and analysis of a control system for a semi-active suspension in a 2-wheel vehicle. The control system is implemented via a semi-active electro-hydraulic damper located on the rear suspension of a hypersport-class motorbike. The entire design and analysis procedure is outlined: the semi-active damper is analyzed and characterized; a wide range of control st...
