NEAR OPTIMUM CONTROL OF A FULL CAR ACTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM

Abstract

In this paper, a near-optimum control strategy applied to a full car model equipped with an active suspension system is presented. The control law is based on a reduced order model obtained by means of a modal aggregation method, achieving a compromise between computational effort in deriving the control law and system performances. To assess the controller performances, a virtual prototype of the suspension system is developed by using AMESim, an advanced fluid-mechanic developing tool. The virtual prototype could be assumed as a reliable model of the real system enabling to perform safer and cheaper tests than using the real system. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the approach.
