Abstract

This paper deals with modeling and control of a semi-active suspension made up with a new industrial semi-active damper, in order to improve comfort and road-holding level of the vehicle. In the past few years, many control strategies have been developed using linear suspension models. A nonlinear model of the industrial damper is developed with physical equations and integrated in a quarter vehicle model. Some tests are done on the real damper in order to validate the model. The comfort and road-holding level of the semi-active suspension are studied using some adapted criteria and compared to the passive ones using simulations. These results emphasize the performances improvement resulting from the control of the damper.
