| Abstract: | To improve the switching time of the control force in standard sky-hook ON-OFF semi-active control algorithm,a stateadjust coefficient was adopted in the improved ON-OFF( ION-OFF)algorithm. In considering of the riding comfort and the handling stability of vehicle, a comprehensive performance assessment criterion on suspension system was established with the utilization of the corresponding passive suspension system. Several simulations and analyses were conducted on improved ON-OFF semi-active suspension system with the comparison of passive suspension system and ON-OFF semi-active suspension system. The simulation results showed that the optimal comprehensive performance of the improved ON-OFF suspension system could be achieved when the state-adjust coefficient equalled 0. 6 as the vehicle running on C level road with the speed of 10 m/s,and the comprehensive performance was better than ON-OFF suspension system. Conclusions could be drawn from the frequency domain analysis that the performance of riding comfort and handling stability were both improved in the low resonance frequency and the mid-frequency range. The fact could be known that the comprehensive performance of the suspension system was associated with the frequency of the riding road and the sprung mass( SM) with the analysis of affecting factors. |
