Abstract
ABSTRACT Aiming at reducing the effect of time delay on the control performance of magnetorheological (MR) damper semi-active suspension, a control strategy with strong robustness to time delay is investigated in this study, including the force controller of MR damper, the robust controller and the predictive compensator. The force controller of MR damper is built based on the hyperbolic tangent function; the robust controller is built based on the simplified model of car body lateral vibration and is designed by μ-synthesis method considering the effect of time delay; then the Smith predictive model and the lateral velocity predictor are designed, which form the predictive compensator of semi-active controller to reduce the effect of time delay. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy, several conventional semi-active controllers are designed as comparative objects. The simulation results show that the proposed semi-active control strategy can maintain good performance when time delay is in the range of 0–100 ms and has better robustness to time delay compared with the conventional control strategy.
