The role of bushing elements linked between suspension parts is to enhance ride quality and handling stability by the spring and damping effect from the elastic deformation. In this paper, a theoretical derivation and computer implementation off a bushing element are proposed. Three different vehicle models are generated to test the developed bushing module. The developed bushing module is implemented as a bushing module in the vehicle dynamic analysis program AUTODYN7.

본 논문에서는 스카이훅댐퍼 시스템의 해석 및 설계에 능동 서스펜션 제어 이론을 적용하여 현가장치설계에 응용 할 수 있는 이론 및 실험 적 제어장치 적용에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 최근의 현가장치설계에서는 강성과 감쇠를 능동적으로 제어하는 기술의 적용이 일반화되고 있으며, 다른 차량안정성 제어장치와의 연계성이 높아짐에 따라, 제어 시스템설계에서 보다 내구성 이 강하고 제어효과의 응답성이 빠르며 정도 또한 높은 제어장치의 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구는 댐퍼의 위치관계에 따른 스카이훅시스템을 해석하여 위와 같은 빠른 응답성과 높은 정도의 제어가 가능한 제어시스템을 해석, 설계하기 위하여 강인제어시스템의 적용에 관한 고찰을 하였다. 그리고 제어대상시스템에 대한 강인제어시스템을 설계하기 위한 모델링 및 적용방법을 수식적으로 해석하였으며, 스카이훅현가장치의 제어시 스템설계에 중요한 내외란성 향상을 위한 강인제어시스템설계에 적용하는 방법에 관해 고찰하였다.

The kinematic and complicance characteristics of torsion beam axle is structurally related to the location and section profile of torsion beam and the span from body mounting point to wheel center. This paper presents the effect of section properties in torsion beam on the structural characteristics and roll behavior of suspension. The structural characteristics is on the maximum stress on the welding area of torsion beam and the roll behavior is on roll steer and roll-camber of suspension which are important for controllability and stability in cornering. Four factors are used for the section design of torsion beam, which are thickness , midline length, are inner radius, and sector half angle . Through the structural and quasi-static analysis made for six torsion beam axle models, it can be noticed that roll steer and the structural durability of suspension are closely related to warping constant and shear center in section properties of torsion beam.

본 연구에서는 실측 주행시험 결과데이터를 바탕으로 윤축 진동과 설계변수간의 관계를 규명하고자 2 자유도계 모델을 구성하였다. 특히 2차 현가장치인 공기스프링의 점탄성 특성을 반영하기 위해 니시무라 공기스프링 모델을 적용하였다. 수치해석 결과 내부 압력 감소 및 보조 공기탱크 체적 증가 시 객차 가속도응답이 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이에 안정성을 헤치지 않는 범위 내에서 현가장치의 강성을 조정해 볼 필요가 있음을 알았다.

In this paper, a modified sensitivity control for the semi-active suspension system with a magneto-rheological (MR) damper is investigated. A 2-d.o.f quarter-car model together with a 6th order polynomial model for the MR damper is considered. For the purpose of suppressing the vertical acceleration of the sprung mass, the square of the vertical acceleration is defined as a cost function and a modified sensitivity control that updates the current input in the negative gradient of the cost function is proposed. The implementation of the proposed algorithm requires only the measurement of the relative displacement of the suspension deflection. The local stability of equilibria of the closed loop nonlinear system is proved by investigating the eigenvalues of the linearized ones. Through simulations, the passive suspension, the skyhook control, and the proposed modified sensitivity control are compared.

본 논문에서는 자기부상시스템의 부상제어기 설계방법을 제시한다. 국내에서는 여러 이점을 갖는 상전도부상방식에 관한 연구가 주로 수행되고 있다. 그러나 이 상전도 부상시스템은 높은 비선형성과 불안정성을 갖기 때문에 여러 외부조건에 대해서 견실한 안정도와 높은 정밀도를 유지하는 부상제어기 설계는 매우 어려운 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 극배치방식에 근거한 이득계획제어 설계기법과 LQG방식에 근거한 이득계획제어 설계기법을 제시하고 제어성능을 모의 실험을 통하여 보인다.

A fuzzy-sliding mode controller is presented to control the dynamics of semi-active suspension systems of vehicles using magneto-rheological (MR) fluid dampers. A full car model is used to design and evaluate the performance of the proposed semi-active controlled suspension system. Four mixed mode MR dampers are designed, manufactured, and integrated with four independent sliding mode controllers. The siding mode controller is designed to decrease the energy consumption and maintain robustness. In order to overcome the chattering of the sliding mode controllers, a fuzzy logic control strategy is merged into the sliding mode controller. The proposed fuzzy-sliding mode controller is designed and fabricated. The performance of the semi-active suspensions is evaluated in both the time and frequency domains. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed fuzzy-sliding mode controller can effectively suppress the vibration of vehicles and improve their ride comfort and handling stability. Furthermore, it is shown that the "chattering" of the sliding mode controller is smoothed when it is integrated with a fuzzy logic control strategy. Although the cost function of the fuzzy-sliding mode control is a slightly higher than that of a classical LQR controller, the control effectiveness and robustness are enhanced considerably.

The main goals of the automotive suspension systems are to isolate roadway unevenness from the tire and to improve vehicle stability. To overcome the performance limitation of the passive systems the active systems which completely replace the passive spring and damper elements with a force generating actuator has been studied. However, application of the system has been limited because it has required a significant amount of power. Recently, alternative systems which retain passive elements but include active elements have been developed to reduce the power required. Those systems are mostly focused on the control system which compresses the spring-damper directly. In this study, a new type of power efficient control system which makes the spring-damper unit slide in side way is studied. After constructing the control system including dynamic modeling and motion control, two types of alternative control systems are compared in view of power consumption and dynamic attitudes such as roll responses as well as heave responses. Also, a half car bond graph model is developed to show clearly the significant differences in performances between two control systems.

Recently, the in-wheel motor vehicle is rapidly developed to solve energy exhaustion and environmental problems. Especially, it has the advantage of independently driving the torque control of each wheel in the vehicle. However, due to the weight increase of wheel, the comfort of vehicle riding and performance of road holding become worse. In this paper, to compensate the poor performance, a simultaneous control of the driving torque and semi-active suspension system is investigated. A vehicle model is generated using CarSim Software and validated by field tests. Co-simulation of CarSim and MATLAB/Simulink with control logics is carried out, and it is found that simultaneous control of the driving torque and semi-active suspension system can improve driving stability and durability of the in-wheel motor system.

The High speed electrical multiple train having a distributed electrical motor system has just been developing to aim the experimental maximum speed at 400km/h since August, 2007. This project comes in stage of basic design and so, it needs to take some review and analysis the characteristics of suspensions on the view of basic design. The vehicle model for dynamic analysis is made from the concept design model that used for the preliminary design review with Vampire program and it is modeled with three linear secondary dampers and two shear springs separated from the bush elements in previous model. The optimization technique is applied to search the proper range of linear characteristics for the suspension elements to satisfy the stability performance at speed 130m/s (about 460km/h). The results shows there are some optimum points according to the variation of primary and secondary suspension characteristics and it would be useful to make a decision to select the proper suspension elements in the precision design that will be done by the manufacturing company.
