Study on SASS with Magneto-Rheological Fluid Damper Based on Improved Variable Universe Fuzzy Control

Abstract:

Considering the non-linear property of the magneto-rheological damper and the low accuracy of the traditional fuzzy control, this paper introduces a semi-active magneto-rheological damper controller which is based on the improved variable universe fuzzy control strategy and conducts a simulation of it. Next, it analyzes the damping effect of the passive suspension and the semi-active suspension. As indicated by the results, the use of the advanced variable universe fuzzy control strategy can effectively improve the ride and comfort of an automobile, and it serves as a reference for the further theoretical researches and sample vehicle experiments in the future.
