To improve the vehicle performance such as ride comfort and road handling, the active suspension system should be used. However, the current active suspension system has a high energy consumption therefore reducing the fuel economy. In this paper the vibration excited by road unevenness is treated as a source of mechanical energy. It is being converted into electrical energy to compensate for the energy consumption by the active suspension. To achieve this task, an electromagnetic active suspension system has been introduced. The power generated from this device has been used as input power of the pump of the hydraulic actuators. Adaptive neuro-fuzzy controllers have been designed to generate a signal to control the valves of the hydraulic actuators.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
