“…Suspension systems can be divided into passive suspension, semi-active suspension, and active suspension, according to the different control modes used [1]. There are generally three fundamental elements for a typical vehicle suspension system, including springing, damping, and location of the wheel [6]. Active suspension system contains separate actuator that is able to provide external forces to both add and dissipate energy from the system.…”

Abstract. In this paper, a robust passive fault-tolerant control (RPFTC) strategy based on / approach and an integral sliding mode passive fault tolerant control (ISMPFTC) strategy based on / approach for vehicle active suspension are presented with considering model uncertainties, loss of actuator effectiveness and time-domain hard constraints of the suspension system. performance index less than and performance index is minimized as the design objective, avoid choosing weighting coefficient. The half-car model is taken as an example, the robust passive fault-tolerant controller and the integral sliding mode passive fault tolerant control law is designed respectively. Three different fault modes are selected. And then compare and analyze the control effect of vertical acceleration of the vehicle body and pitch angular acceleration of passive suspension control, robust passive fault tolerant control and integral sliding mode passive fault tolerant control to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of passive fault tolerant control algorithm of active suspension. The studies we have performed indicated that the passive fault tolerant control strategy of the active suspension can improve the ride comfort of the suspension system.

“…1 is provided here. In general, vehicle dynamics models, based on multibody dynamics, are mainly used for suspension design (Sharp, Crolla 1987;Cao et al 2011). The models are then typically used to determine ride comfort, handling qualities and component loads (Falkner, Reinalter 2006).…”

Determination of Representative Loading Conditions for Effective Semitrailer Design

et al. 2014

Abstract. Obtaining a representative loading spectrum that corresponds well to the reality is still one of the greatest challenges for fatigue life calculations and optimal design of the trailer body. A good qualitative and quantitative knowledge of the spectrum leads to more efficient usage of material, a better design of connection points and an overall decrease of the weight of the trailer, which finally results in a significant decrease in the price of a ton of cargo per km. Despite that, the approach is nowadays mostly based on the experience and rules of thumb. It typically results in over-dimensioning of some parts while other parts remain vulnerable to failure due to unknown loading patterns. This paper describes a generic approach to solve the problems mentioned above applied in a research project named FORWARD (Fuel Optimized trailer Referring to Well Assessed Realistic Design loads). The project lasted two years and was carried out in cooperation with several different trailer manufacturers and 1st tier suppliers. The loading history of more than 1000 hours for five trailer types were captured in the shape of strains, accelerations and velocities of various elements of the trailers, enabling reconstruction of the loading in terms of forces and moments acting on the wheels and kingpin. Parallel to this extensive test-campaign, a novel generic physics-based computational approach was developed to predict selected loads encountered during common manoeuvres to all trailer types. The computational approach was validated against test-data and resulted in creating a generic multibody library applicable for all trailer types, and an automated post-processing routine for the large amount of test-data.
