This paper presents performance analysis of a quarter-vehicle magneto-rheological(MR) suspension system with respect to different tire pressure. As a first step, MR damper is designed and manufactured based on the optimized damping force levels and mechanical dimensions required for a commercial mid-sized passenger vehicle. After experimentally evaluating dynamic characteristics of the manufactured MR damper, the quarter-vehicle MR suspension system consisting of sprung mass, spring, tire and the MR damper is constructed in order to investigate the ride comfort. After deriving the equations of the motion for the proposed quarter-vehicle MR suspension system, vertical tire stiffness with respect to different tire pressure is experimentally identified. The skyhook controller is then implemented for the realization of quarter-vehicle MR suspension system. Ride comfort characteristics such as vertical acceleration RMS and weighted RMS of sprung mass are evaluated under various road conditions.

This paper presents ride comfort characteristics of a quarter-vehicle magneto-rheological (MR) suspension system with respect to different tire pressure. As a first step, controllable MR damper is designed and modeled based on both the optimized damping force levels and mechanical dimensions required for a commercial full-size passenger vehicle. Then, a quarter-vehicle suspension system consisting of sprung mass, spring, tire and the MR damper is constructed. After deriving the equations of the motion for the proposed quarter-vehicle MR suspension system, vertical tire stiffness with respect to different tire pressure is experimentally identified. The skyhook controller is then implemented for the realization of the quarter-vehicle MR suspension system. Finally, the ride comfort analysis with respect to different tire pressure is undertaken in time domain. In addition, a comparative result between controlled and uncontrolled is provided by presenting vertical RMS displacement.

This paper presents a robust and superior control performance of a quarter-vehicle electrorheological (ER) suspension system. In order to achieve this goal, a moving sliding mode control algorithm is adopted, and its moving strategy is tuned by fuzzy logic. As a first step, ER damper is designed and manufactured for a passenger vehicle suspension system, and its field-dependent damping force is experimentally evaluated. After formulating the governing equation of motion for the quarter-vehicle ER suspension system, a stable sliding surface and moving algorithm based on fuzzy logic are formulated. The fuzzy moving sliding mode controller is then constructed and experimentally implemented. Control performances of the ER suspension system are evaluated in both time and frequency domains.

The vehicle suspension system plays a very important part related with vehicle ride and handling. To improve the vehicle ride and handling many researches have been progressed from various damping parameter tuning techniques to the development of the electronic controlled suspension systems. In this paper, as one of the ride performance improvement a disturbance observer(DOB) based control system is applied to the quarter car vehicle model in order to show that the DOB can obtain good vibration isolation characteristics. First, the robust stability criterion for the DOB is introduced in detail, and then how DOB is applied to the 1/4 car vehicle model is represented, and finally to confirm the effectiveness of the DOB in vehicle ride performance improvement a computer simulation is carried out for various driving conditions.

This paper presents design and control of electronic control suspension(ECS) equipped with controllable magnetorheological(MR) damper for passenger vehicle. In order to achieve this goal, a cylindrical type MR fluid damper that satisfies design specification of a middle-sized commercial passenger vehicle is proposed. After manufacturing the MR damper with design parameters, their field-dependent damping forces are experimentally evaluated and compared with those of a conventional damper. A quarter-vehicle MR ECS system consisting of sprung mass, spring, tire, controller and the MR damper is established in order to investigate the ride comfort performances. On the basis of the governing equation of motion of the suspension system, five control strategies(soft, hard, comfort, sport and optimal mode) are formulated. The proposed control strategies are then experimentally realized with the quarter-vehicle MR ECS system. Control performances such as vertical acceleration of the car body and tire deflection are evaluated in frequency domains on random road condition. In addition, performance comparison of WRMS(weighted root mean square) of the quarter-vehicle MR ECS system on random road are undertaken in order to investigate ride comfort characteristics.

본 논문은 관성센서를 이용한 무인 항공체의 자세 제어에 관한 연구를 다루었다. 항공계의 종류는 크게 고정익기와 회선익기로 나뉘는데 본 연구에서는 회전익기의 형태를 가진 Quarter Vehicle을 사통하였다. Quarter Vehicle은 4개의 프로펠러에 의한 양력과 회전 반발력으로 비행을 한다. 이때의 양력은 수평면에 대해 수직으로 추력을 발생시키므로 다른 비행체보다 불안정하며 이를 안정하게 제어하기 위해 관성 센서를 적용하여 균형을 유지한다. 본 연구에서는 관성센서를 이용하여 UAV의 자세와 균형을 안정적으로 유지하여 안정적인 비행이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한 상호 의존적인 항법 시스템으로 환경변화에 영향을 받지 않으며, 정확한 위치정보를 제공하는 GPS를 사용하여 3개 이상의 위성으로부터 정보를 받아 좌표를 계산하고 위치, 속도 및 방향을 결정하여 자율 비행이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 본 논문에서는 Quarter Vehicle의 구조와 이론적 배경을 통한 설계, 그리고 관성센서와 GPS의 적용을 위한 방법을 제시 한다.
