Abstract


This paper delivers findings on optimal robust control studies of nonlinear full car models. A nonlinear active suspension full car model is used, which considers the dynamic of a hydraulic actuator. The investigation on the benefit of using Sliding Mode Control (SMC) structure for the effective trade-off between road handling. The design of SMC in the chassis/internal subsystem is enhanced by modifying a sliding surface based on Proportional-Integral-Derivatives (PID) with the utilization of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm in obtaining the best optimum value of control parameters. The switching control is designed through the Lyapunov function, which includes the boundedness of uncertainties in sprung masses that can guarantee the stability of the control design. The responses of the proposed controller have improved the disturbance rejection up to 60% as compared to the conventional SMC controller design and shown the high robustness to resist the effect of varying the parameter with minimal output deviations. The study proved that the proposed SMC scheme offers an overall effective performance in full car active suspension control to perform a better ride comfort as well as the road handling ability while maintaining a restriction of suspension travel. An intensive computer simulation (MATLAB Simulink) has been carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm under various road surface conditions.
