Vehicle Suspension System

In this paper the optimal control and parameters design of fractional-order vehicle suspension system are researched, where the system is described by fractional-order differential equation. The linear quadratic optimal state regulator is designed based on optimal control theory, which is applied to get the optimal control force of the active fractional-order suspension system. A stiffness-damping system is added to the passive fractional-order suspension system. Based on the criteria, i.e. the force arising from the accessional stiffness-damping system should be as close as possible to the optimal control force of the active fractional-order suspension system, the parameters of the optimized passive fractional-order suspension system are obtained by least square algorithm. An Oustaloup filter algorithm is adopted to simulate the fractional-order derivatives. Then, the simulation models of the three kinds of fractional-order suspension systems are developed respectively. The simulation results indicate that the active and optimized passive fractional-order suspension systems both reduce the value of vehicle body vertical acceleration and improve the ride comfort compared with the passive fractional-order suspension system, whenever the vehicle is running on a sinusoidal surface or random surface.

The vehicle active suspension system is a multi-objective control system with the input constraint. In this paper, a new effective method is proposed for constrained optimal control of a vehicle suspension system including nonlinear characteristics for elasto-damping elements. In the proposed method, an equivalent constrained optimization problem is firstly formulated by performing a performance index which is defined as a weighted combination of predicted responses of nonlinear suspension system and control signal. Then, the constrained optimization problem is analytically solved by the Kerush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) theorem to find the control law. The proposed constrained controller is compared with the unconstrained optimal controller for which the limitation of control force is satisfied by regulation of its weighting factor in the performance index. Simulation studies are conducted to show the effectiveness of two controllers. The results indicate that the constrained controller utilizes the maximum capacity of external forces and consequently attains a better performance in the presence of force limitations.

Background: Vehicles generally travel on different road conditions, and withstand strong shock and vibration. In order to reduce or isolate the strong shock and vibration, it is necessary to propose and develop a high-performance vehicle suspension system. Objective: This study aims to report a pneumatic artificial muscle bionic kangaroo leg suspension to improve the comfort performance of vehicle suspension system. Methods: In summarizing the existing vehicle suspension systems and analyzing their advantages and disadvantages, this paper introduces a new patent of vehicle suspension system based on the excellent damping and buffering performance of kangaroo leg, A Pneumatic Artificial Muscle Bionic Kangaroo Leg Suspension. According to the biomimetic principle, the pneumatic artificial muscles bionic kangaroo leg suspension with equal bone ratio is constructed on the basis of the kangaroo leg crural index, and two working modes (passive and active modes) are designed for the suspension. Moreover, the working principle of the suspension system is introduced, and the rod system equations for the suspension structure are built up. The characteristic simulation model of this bionic suspension is established in Adams, and the vertical performance is analysed. Results: It is found that the largest deformation happens in the bionic heel spring and the largest angle change occurs in the bionic ankle joint under impulse road excitation, which is similar to the dynamic characteristics of kangaroo leg. Furthermore, the dynamic displacement and the acceleration of the vehicle body are both sharply reduced. Conclusion: The simulation results show that the comfort performance of this bionic suspension is excellent under the impulse road excitation, which indicates the bionic suspension structure is feasible and reasonable to be applied to vehicle suspensions.
