Two degrees of freedom models of a car are employed to demonstrate the effects of the suspension derivative ∂ x/∂ z on the pitch and bounce attitudes during braking or accelerating. The work equation is employed to show that brake effort distribution between the axles has a significant effect on the attitudes when anti-dive suspension characteristics are utilized. The steady-state positions in both pitch and bounce are developed for linear systems of typical suspensions that may be either standard or coupled systems. Non-linear systems are considered using simulation techniques. A description of some simulation circuits is contained in an appendix.

A generalization of the gauge equivalence of Lagrangians is developed. In this approach the different Lagrangians determine not only the same set of solutions but also the same energies. Some general properties are studied and then the case of velocity-free forces is considered. In particular we show the non-existence for n=2 (two degrees of freedom) of such equivalent Lagrangians and that when n=3 the only forces admitting such equivalent Lagrangians correspond to those deriving from central potentials.

A simulation model of a rotary pneumatic servo system has been developed and verified against an experimental system. The double-acting rotary actuator is a novel device utilizing flexible inflatable bladders. The device differs from conventional pneumatic cylinders in that it exhibits low levels of friction, as it has no sliding seals, but it does suffer from hysteresis caused by bladder distortion. The objective of this study was to develop a tool with which to investigate the effect of various forms of hysteresis and other parameters on system performance. The dynamic model utilizes a linearized analysis of pneumatic components based on earlier studies. The principal advance described in this paper relates to the inclusion of non-linear elements. These are hysteresis caused by friction or the distortion of flexible components, and a digital controller implementation. The simulation successfully predicted all major modes of behaviour. Simplified models of rubber and coulomb friction-induced hysteresis modified simulation performance in line with experimental results. An investigation in simulation showed that coulomb friction-induced hysteresis had a greater damping effect than that caused by distorting the bladders. This result applies only to position control, as hysteresis has been shown not to provide damping in trajectory control applications.
