Abstract

Since the hydraulic actuating suspension system has nonlinear and time-varying behavior, it is difficult to establish an accurate model for designing a model-based controller. Here, an adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller is proposed to suppress the sprung mass position oscillation due to road surface variation. This intelligent control strategy combines an adaptive rule with fuzzy and sliding mode control algorithms. It has online learning ability to deal with the system time-varying and nonlinear uncertainty behaviors, and adjust the control rules parameters. Only eleven fuzzy rules are required for this active suspension system and these fuzzy control rules can be established and modified continuously by online learning. The experimental results show that this intelligent control algorithm effectively suppresses the oscillation amplitude of the sprung mass with respect to various road surface disturbances.
