Description
Summary:Active suspension control system is used today because of their ability to manage the compromise between ride comfort and vehicle road-handling. In this project, the ride controller part of an active suspension system is presented and evaluated. A mathematical model of the suspension system was derived analytically and validated experimentally. Matlab/Simulink was used to analyze and design a controller for this system. The performance of the proposed controller will be compared to LQR controller. There are three parameters to be compared in this project which are wheel deflection, the body acceleration and the suspension travel. From the simulation result and analysis, it could be concluded that the model is reliable and it can be applied to any quarter car suspension system.
