Abstract

An analytical investigation of a half-car model using an integral plus state variable feedback controller for tracking and regulation is performed. The potential benefits of incorporating, actively or semi-actively, such a controller to remedy the inherent problems associated with conventional passive suspensions and active suspensions based on state variable feedback controllers are examined. Both random and deterministic roadway inputs as well as deterministic body force and moment disturbances are used. The results demonstrate that an optimal suspension using an integral plus state variable feedback controller retains both excellent ride and attitude control characteristics.
