Abstract :
In this paper, a full-vehicle active suspension system is designed to simultaneously improve vehicle ride comfort and steady-state handling performance. First, a linear suspension model of a vehicle and a nonlinear handling model are described. Next, the link between the suspension model and vehicle steady-state handling characteristics is analysed. Then, an H-infinity controller for the suspension is designed to achieve integrated ride-comfort and handling control. Finally, the controller is verified by computer simulations.
