Abstract:

For coordinated control of vehicle for semi?active suspension system, a master?slave control strategy is proposed by analyzing the coupling influence through suspension dynamic model. The road test is carried out based on a real vehicle equipped with the self?developed electronic control unit (ECU) as well as magnetorheological (MR) dampers paralleling with constant throttling orifices. The off?road test indicates that the weighted acceleration of the driver seat and the pitching rate are reduced by 13.8%~42.6% and 21.1%~53.7% respectively; In the slalom test, the rolling rate and angle are reduced by 65% and 38.5% respectively. In the double lane?change test, the rolling rate and angle are reduced by 65% and 51% respectively. In conclusion, the developed MR suspension system can improve the riding comfort, handling stability and driving safety significantly.
