A GA-Weighted Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Model to Predict the Behaviour of Magnetorheological Damper

Abstract:

Magnetorheological damper is a controllable device in semi-active suspension system to absorb unwanted movement. The accuracy of magnetorheological damper model will affect performance of the control system. In this paper, a combination of genetic algorithm (GA) and adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) approaches is utilized to model the magnetorheological damper using experimental results. GA algorithm is implemented to modify the weights of the trained ANFIS model. The proposed method is compared with ANFIS and artificial neural network (ANN) methods to evaluate the prediction performance. The result illustrates that the proposed GA-weighted adaptive neuro-fuzzy model has successfully predicted the magnetorheological damper behaviour and outperformed other compared methods.
