Vehicle Attitude Control Simulation Based on Soft and Hard Damping

Abstract:

In order to study the impact of vehicle attitude changes on stability, vehicle attitude control simulation model based on soft and hard damping characteristics was built. The model was applied to simulate vehicle straight driving and turning driving, thus simulating various vehicle attitudes in driving. The simulation results show that this model was correct and the control algorithm was feasible; the damping impact on a variety of vehicle attitudes in the driving process can be simulated in advance by adjusting the damping; and the changes of soft and hard damping adjustable shock absorber damping can effectively change the vehicle riding comfort and handling stability.
