20230415537 · 2023-12-28 ·

One or more systems, methods and/or non-transitory, machine-readable mediums are described herein for controlling a suspension system. An active suspension control system can comprise a memory that stores executable components, and a processor, coupled to the memory, that executes or facilitates execution of the executable components comprising a dynamics model generator that generates a bioinspired dynamics model and determines nonlinear dynamics for nonlinear suppression of vibration of an active suspension system, a fuzzy disturbance observer component that determines a lumped disturbance to the active suspension system by employing fuzzy variables absent determination of exact physical parameters of the active suspension system, and a controller that applies respective outputs of the dynamics model generator and the fuzzy disturbance observer component, in combination with a non-cancelled state-coupling term, to control the active suspension system to thereby cause the nonlinear suppression of the vibration of the active suspension system.

Damping force control apparatus for suspension

A damping force control apparatus for a suspension is applied to a damper whose damping force can be set based on a damping force control value and controls the damping force control value. The damper is attached to a support portion with a buffer member interposed between the support portion of a vehicle body and a cylinder of the damper. The apparatus includes: a displacement related quantity estimation device estimating relative displacement of a vehicle wheel and a relative speed of the vehicle wheel with respect to the vehicle body as estimated relative displacement and an estimated relative speed; and a damping force control value calculation device determining the damping force control value so as to suppress vibration of the vehicle body based on state variables provided from the vehicle body and the estimated relative speed.

Anti-roll bar for the rolling stabilization of a vehicle and method for operating such an anti-roll bar

A stabilizer (105) for the anti-roll stabilization of a vehicle (100). The stabilizer (105) has a first stabilizer element (110) and a second stabilizer element (115). The first stabilizer element (110) is, or can be, coupled to a first wheel suspension element (120) of the vehicle (100) and the second stabilizer element (115) is, or can be, coupled to a second wheel suspension element (125) of the vehicle (100). Furthermore, the stabilizer (105) is provided with an electric motor (135) designed to rotate the first stabilizer element (110), relative to the second stabilizer element (115) in response to a control signal, so as to decouple the first wheel suspension element (120) from the second wheel suspension element (125). In this case the control signal represents a signal determined on the basis of a field-orientated control system.
