The main role of a car suspension system is to improve the ride comfort and road holding. The traditional spring-damper suspension is currently being replaced by either a semi-active or active suspension system, because, passive suspension system cannot give better ride comfort and handling property. In order to improve the capability of active suspension systems, a robust Adaptive B-spline Neu...

The landing gear of an aircraft serves to mitigate the vibration and impact forces transmitted from ground fuselage. This paper addresses magneto-rheological (MR) damper gear, which provides high shock absorption efficiency excellent stability in various conditions by adjusting damping force using external magnetic field intensity. performance MR was verified through numerical simulations drop ...

Introduction Research on control strategies for semi-active and active suspensions of vehicles has been carried out extensively in the last two decades. 1D and 2D analytical models, like the quarter-car model, are commonly employed for suspension control synthesis and analysis. 3D analytical models of both the suspension and the full vehicle have also been employed more recently. The skyhook, g...

This paper presents an approach to approximate the forward and inverse dynamic behaviours of a magnetorheological (MR) damper using evolving radial basis function (RBF) networks. Due to the highly nonlinear characteristics of MR dampers, modelling of MR dampers becomes a very important problem to their applications. In this paper, an alternative representation of the MR damper in terms of evolv...
