A Simultaneous optimal design of structural and control system of a semi-active suspension is applied on a helf-car model in this paper. Suspension stiffnesses and dampings are selected as structural design parameters and damping forces of variable dampers as controller parameters. Sence this optimization problem is of large discontinuous space, conventional exhaustive methods are not enough. So we here try out an approach using Genetic Algorithm for our problem. Through numerical simulation work, the performance of the simultaneously optimized system was tested and showed meaningful improvement over the partially optimized ones.

Mostly a ride comfort and handling performance of vehicle is influenced by dynamic behavior control of vehicle. We are focusing on development of a semi-intelligent suspension system with continuously variable damper(HS-SH type). only using absolute velocity of sprung mass without using the relative velocity besides having lower system prices and a little energy requirement. In this paper, the system is realized in consideration to control strategy (sky-hook control, hybrid filter, etc.) and has been proved to have improvement of behavior control of vehicle by quarter car and Vehicle test, respectively.

본 연구에서는 주행 노면의 형상을 재현하는 알고리즘을 기반으로, 외란 형상 정보를 활용한 차량의 진동제어 시스템과 그 결과를 제시하였다. 시스템에 전달되는 외란으로 유발되는 과도한 진동 및 그 영향을 저감시키고 안정성을 확보하는 것은 중요한 이슈이며, 특히 자동차 분야에서는 그 요구가 지속적으로 제기되고 있다. 차량의 진동과 불안정성을 유발하는 대표적인 외란 요인은 주행하는 차량 타이어에 접촉하는 불규칙한 도로면 형상이다. 따라서 이러한 외란 형상 정보를 확보하는 것은 매우 중요한 과정이다. 본 연구에서는 차체에 부착된 센서로부터 측정된 신호에 혼입된 차량의 동적 거동 영향을 배제하고 관심 도로면의 형상 정보를 재현할 수 있는 RPS 알고리즘과 이를 적용한 실험결과를 제시하였다. 이를 토대로, 예견제어 이론을 응용한 전자 제어 현가 시스템과 7 자유도 전차량 모델에 적용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과 반능동형 작동기와 결합된 지능형 제어 시스템을 통하여 자동차의 주요 성능 지수인 승차감과 조종안정성의 개선 효과를 확인하였으며, 제안한 제어 프레임의 효용성을 제시하였다.

In the present work, a seat suspension system adopting semi-active damper is evaluated for driver's ride quality. A cylindrical type of ER(electrorheological) damper is designed and manufactured for the seat suspension of heavy vehicles. The governing equation is derived under consideration of human vibration. A sliding mode controller is then synthesized and experimentally realized on the manufactured ER seat suspension while a driver is sitting on the controlled seat. Ride quality is evaluated by fatigue decreased proficiency boundary, vibration dose value and crest factor utilizing weighted-acceleration according to ISO2631.

An MR(Magneto-Rheological) fluid damper is designed and applied to the semi-active suspension system of a 1/4 car model. The damping constant of the MR damper changes according to input current and the time delay of the damper is included in the system dynamics. The passive method, LQ control and Frequency shaped LQ control are compared in experiments. The advantage of the proposed frequency shaped LQ control is that the ride comfort improves in frequency range from 4 to 8Hz where human body is most sensitive and the driving safety improves around the resonance frequency of unsprung mass, 11Hz. The experiments using a 1/4 car model show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

Repeated hardware tests and tuning, investing cost and time, are usually required to assure a satisfactory performance of the suspension seat. In this study, an EILS(ECU-in-the-loop) method was proposed to develop a controller for a semi-active suspension seat with a MR(magneto-rheological) damper. EILS system was developed using a real-time seat dynamics model communicating with ECU hardwares under a closed loop environment utilizing Matlab/Simulink and xPC $TargetBox^{TM}$. A sky-hook based control algorithm with optimized damping coefficients was verified to reduce the energy consumption and to improve the vibration response performance.

This paper proposes a new type of MR (magentorheological) fluid based suspension system and applies it to military vehicle for vibration control. The suspension system consists of gas spring and MR damper. The nonlinear behavior of spring characteristics is evaluated with respect to the wheel travel and damping force model due to viscosity and yield stress of MR fluid is derived. Subsequently, a military vehicle of 6WD is adopted for the integration of the MR suspension system and its nonlinear dynamic model is establishes by considering vertical, pitch and roll motion. Then, a sky-hook controller associated with semi-active actuating condition is designed to reduce the vibration. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed MR suspension system, computer simulation is undertaken showing vibration control performance such as roll angle and pitch angle evaluated under bump and random road profiles.

This paper presents vehicle road test of a semi-active suspension system equipped with continuously controllable magnetorheological (MR) dampers. As a first step, front and rear MR dampers are designed and manufactured based on the optimized damping force levels and mechanical dimensions required for a commercial middle-sized passenger vehicle. After experimentally evaluating dynamic characteristics of the MR dampers, the test vehicle is prepared for road test by integrating current suppliers, real-time data acquisition system and numerous sensors such as accelerometer and gyroscope. Subsequently, the manufactured four MR dampers (two for front parts and two for rear parts) are incorporated with the test vehicle and a skyhook control algorithm is formulated and realized in the data acquisition system. In order to emphasize practical aspect of the proposed MR suspension system, road tests are undertaken on proving grounds: bump and paved roads. The control responses are evaluated in both time and frequency domains by activating the MR dampers.
