Abstract

The purpose of this research is to control a quarter car suspension system and also to reduce the fluctuated movement caused by passing thevehicle over road bump using modified PID (Proportional Integral and Derivative) controller. The proposed controller deals with dual loopfeedback signals instead of single feedback signal as in the conventional PID controller. The structure of the modified PID controller wascreated by moving the proportional and derivative actions in the feedback path while remaining the integral action in the forward path. Thus,high accuracy results were obtained. Firstly, modelling and simulation of linear passive suspension system for a quarter car system wasperformed using Matlab – Simulink software. Then the linear suspension system was activated and simulated by using an active hydraulicactuator to generate the necessary force which can be regulated and controlled by the proposed controller. The performance of whole systemhas been enhanced with a modified PID controller.
