Semi-Active System of Vehicle Vibration Damping
Source abstract
Abstract
This article discusses the vibration of a vehicle equipped with four semi-active dampers. The friction forces generated in these dampers have crucial influence on the intensity of the vehicle vibration. To estimate the effect of the vehicle vibration damping, a criterial function depending on the values of these forces has been selected. Solving the problem has the purpose of determining four values of the forces at which the criteria function reaches the minimum at any moment. On the basis of the above, signals for the devices controlling the operation of the semi-active dampers are determined. In this work, the analysis of the discussed problem was conducted in regard to the method for determining the optimal force values. Moreover, the results of the simulation of the vibration of the vehicle equipped with semi-active magneto-rheological dampers are presented. In addition, the analysis of the influence of the form of the criterial function on the vehicle vibration damping efficiency is proposed. Based on the tests carried out on the vehicle with MR dampers, the comfort index improved by 51.6%, compared to the classic suspension.
