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...

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...

Suspension system of a vehicle is used to minimize the effect of different road disturbances for ride comfort and improvement of vehicle control. A passive suspension system responds only to the deflection of the strut. The main objective of this work is to design an efficient active suspension control for a full car model with 8-Degrees Of Freedom (DOF) using adaptive soft-computing technique....

A polynomial function supervising fuzzy sliding mode control (PSFaSMC), which embedded with skyhook surface method, is proposed for the ride comfort of a vehicle semiactive suspension. The multi-objective microgenetic algorithm (MOlGA) has been utilized to determine the PSFaSMC controller’s parameter alignment in a training process with three ride comfort objectives for the vehicle semi-active ...

A question of major importance in the auto industry concerns the modeling and improved design of vehicle tires. Tire performance affects the handling performance of the automobile. Many of the variables on which tire performance depends can be calculated from the load and deflection of the spindle in the suspension system for each wheel. The question of tire performance thus becomes a question ...

In this paper, the 1/4 vehicle model have been simulated. The vehicle body acceleration using optimal control has been optimized. The vehicle ride comfort is achieved by using robust control, and it has been compared with optimal control. The active suspension can help the vehicle to have a good dynamic behavioral. In this paper, two degrees of freedom dynamic vibration model of a general ve...
