Semi-active suspension systems are greatly expected to be in the mainstream of future controlled suspensions for passenger cars. In this study, a continuous variable damper for a passenger car suspension is developed, which is controlled actively and exhibits high performance with light weight, low cost, and low energy consumption. To get fast response of the damper, reverse damping mechanism is adapted, and to get small pressure change rate after blow-off, a pilot controlled proportional valve is designed and analyzed. The reverse continuous variable damper is designed as a HS-SH damper that offers good body control with reduced transferred input force from tire, compared with any other type of suspension system. The damper structure is designed, so that rebound and compression damping force can be tuned independently, of which variable valve is placed externally. The rate of pressure change with respect to the flow rate after blow-off becomes smooth when the fixed orifice size increases, which means that the blow-off slope is controllable using the fixed orifice size. The damping force variance is wide and continuous, and is controlled by the spool opening, of which scheme is usually adapted in proportional valves. The reverse continuous variable damper developed in this study is expected to be utilized in the semi-active suspension systems in passenger cars after its performance and simplicity of the design is confirmed through real car test.

본 연구에서는 주행 노면의 형상을 재현하는 알고리즘을 기반으로, 외란 형상 정보를 활용한 차량의 진동제어 시스템과 그 결과를 제시하였다. 시스템에 전달되는 외란으로 유발되는 과도한 진동 및 그 영향을 저감시키고 안정성을 확보하는 것은 중요한 이슈이며, 특히 자동차 분야에서는 그 요구가 지속적으로 제기되고 있다. 차량의 진동과 불안정성을 유발하는 대표적인 외란 요인은 주행하는 차량 타이어에 접촉하는 불규칙한 도로면 형상이다. 따라서 이러한 외란 형상 정보를 확보하는 것은 매우 중요한 과정이다. 본 연구에서는 차체에 부착된 센서로부터 측정된 신호에 혼입된 차량의 동적 거동 영향을 배제하고 관심 도로면의 형상 정보를 재현할 수 있는 RPS 알고리즘과 이를 적용한 실험결과를 제시하였다. 이를 토대로, 예견제어 이론을 응용한 전자 제어 현가 시스템과 7 자유도 전차량 모델에 적용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 그 결과 반능동형 작동기와 결합된 지능형 제어 시스템을 통하여 자동차의 주요 성능 지수인 승차감과 조종안정성의 개선 효과를 확인하였으며, 제안한 제어 프레임의 효용성을 제시하였다.

An MR(Magneto-Rheological) fluid damper is designed and applied to the semi-active suspension system of a 1/4 car model. The damping constant of the MR damper changes according to input current and the time delay of the damper is included in the system dynamics. The passive method, LQ control and Frequency shaped LQ control are compared in experiments. The advantage of the proposed frequency shaped LQ control is that the ride comfort improves in frequency range from 4 to 8Hz where human body is most sensitive and the driving safety improves around the resonance frequency of unsprung mass, 11Hz. The experiments using a 1/4 car model show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

A Simultaneous optimal design of structural and control system of a semi-active suspension is applied on a helf-car model in this paper. Suspension stiffnesses and dampings are selected as structural design parameters and damping forces of variable dampers as controller parameters. Sence this optimization problem is of large discontinuous space, conventional exhaustive methods are not enough. So we here try out an approach using Genetic Algorithm for our problem. Through numerical simulation work, the performance of the simultaneously optimized system was tested and showed meaningful improvement over the partially optimized ones.

In this paper, the semi active mount featuring Magneto rheological fluid(MR Fluid) is proposed. MR fluid is suspension of micro sized magnetizable particles in a fluid medium, and its apparent viscosity can be varied by the applied strength of magnetic field. When the controllable MR fluid is applied to mechanical devices, the devices provide simple, rapid response interfaces between electronic controls and mechanical systems. The MR fluid is applied in the conventional fluid mount for improving its performance of the mount's isolation effect. A appropriate size of the MR mount is designed and manufactured on the basis of Bingham model of MR fluid. In addition, the field dependent damping forces of MR mount are evaluated with respect to the input frequency variation.

This paper presents the performance of a full vehicle MR suspension system at different tire pressure. The pressure of tire is related to tire stiffness, which is significantly affects the performance of suspension system. Therefore, in this research, the effectiveness of tire pressure on full vehicle MR suspension is evaluated. As a first step, the characteristic of tire with respect to pressure is experimentally tested and modeled. After that, the governing equation of MR damper and full vehicle MR suspension system are derived. The skyhook controller is implemented and the vibration control performance of full vehicle MR suspension is evaluated via simulation with respect to the tire pressure.

MR dampers show highly nonlinear and histeretic dynamic behavior. Therefore, for a vehicle dynamic simulation with MR dampers, this dynamic characteristics should be accurately reflected in the damper model. In this paper, an artificial neural network technique was developed for modeling MR dampers. This MR damper model was successfully verified through a random input forcing test. This MR damper model can be used for semi-active suspension vehicle dynamics and control simulations with practical accuracy.
