“…Therefore, the numerical methods are usually employed to analyze such a system. Considering the application background, the range of frequencies and amplitudes of the road profile during vehicle running is certain, which are normally below 15 Hz and 10 cm, respectively [4][5][6]. We use the common harmonic excitation as the road surface.…”

“…When exposed to a magnetic field, the rheology of MRF reversibly and consecutive changes from a free-flowing Newton liquid to a semisolid Bingham with controllable yield strength, which is known as magneto-rheological effect [1][2][3]. Magnetorheological damper (MRD) based on MRF has significant promise for effective vibration damping in many applications, such as MRD-based semiactive suspension system, which has attracted much attention to improve the ride comfort and handling safety of the vehicle [4][5][6]. Nevertheless, there are still numerous challenges in controlling a MRD to get the superior performances, because it has highly nonlinear characteristics and chaotic motion due to typical hysteretic characteristics.…”

This paper examines dynamical behavior of a nonlinear oscillator which models a quarter-car forced by the road profile. The magneto-rheological (MR) suspension system has been established, by employing the modified Bouc-Wen force-velocity (F-v) model of magneto-rheological damper (MRD). The possibility of chaotic motions in MR suspension is discovered by employing the method of nonlinear stability analysis. With the bifurcation diagrams and corresponding Lyapunov exponent (LE) spectrum diagrams detected through numerical calculation, we can observe the complex dynamical behaviors and oscillating mechanism of alternating periodic oscillations, quasiperiodic oscillations, and chaotic oscillations with different profiles of road excitation, as well as the dynamical evolutions to chaos through period-doubling bifurcations, saddle-node bifurcations, and reverse period-doubling bifurcations.

“…In this paper, the ride comfort indices (vertical acceleration, dynamic stroke, dynamic load) and the handling stability indices (body pitch angle, body roll angle, and yaw rate) are taken into account, and the designed comprehensive index is more specific. On the other hand, scholars mainly use the genetic algorithm [16], linear quadratic regulator (LQR) algorithm [17], fuzzy proportional integral derivative (PID) algorithm [18], and other control methods [19] to design a suspension controller for achieving coordinated control of ride comfort and handling stability, but few use game theory as a control. Ride comfort and handling stability are two contradictory sides, as one falls and the other rises.…”

Research on Switching Interconnection Modes and Game Control of Interconnected Air Suspension

To solve the contradiction between handling stability and ride comfort of vehicles with interconnected air suspension system (IASS) and reduce the energy consumption of air suspension with adjustable spring stiffness, a coordinated control for dynamic performance was designed based on the logic of switching interconnection modes and game control for the damper. The control system consists of a switching controller for air suspension interconnection modes and a distribution controller for the damping force. The switching controller determines the optimal air suspension interconnection mode by calculating the vehicle dynamic performance index in real-time. The distribution controller achieves a distribution for optimal damping force based on an infinite time differential game. veDYNA software that is a vehicle dynamics analysis software based on MATLAB/Simulink was used to verify the algorithm, and the accuracy was verified by a bench test. Finally, the results show this coordinated system can significantly improve the ride comfort and restrain the pitching motion. Compared with traditional suspension, the vertical acceleration decreases by 18.32% and the dynamic stroke decreases by more than 10% under the straight condition; the vertical acceleration decreases by 12.24% and the roll angle decreases by 1.26% under the steering condition.

“…Mathematical MacPherson suspension system models have been applied in variety of studies. Study [7] applied semiactive H ∞ control strategy to MacPherson suspension with hybrid control between a skyhook and groundhook algorithm. In [8], independent MacPherson suspension units were used in the two steering axles of a 8×8 vehicle Adams simulation model for optimizing the design of the steering system.…”

This paper studies the possibility to use a simplified MacPherson suspension system model for tuning active suspension system controllers. With a nonlinear suspension model, more accurate responses can be obtained compared to a traditional linear quarter-car suspension system model. The presented nonlinear two-dimensional mathematical model for the MacPherson suspension system is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink and validated by comparing it to an Adams/View multibody model with three simulation cases, one for kinematic analysis and two for dynamic analysis. The results are expressed as normalized RMS deviation values between the outputs of the two models. Most outputs of the two models go hand in hand, and the greatest difference is in the camber angle values derived from simplified linearization in the mathematical model.
