Abstract

This article focusses on reducing the axis acceleration and minimizing the vertical displacement by using an air spring actuator and active force control as a main control element. In active force control loop track the developed force of an air spring actuator is fed as a feedback to the actuator. Mamdani and sugeno type fuzzy interference system are used to develop a desired force and to estimate mass of the system respectively. The performance of the system is analyzed for both time and frequency domains and contrasted with passive suspension due to the irregular road disturbances. While developing the simulation model, quarter car suspension with seat as three degree of freedom and an air spring actuator acting as a force generator are modeled as non-linear system. The simulation result shows the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme in suppressing the undesirable effects of the suspension system.
