            Abstract : 
In this paper, a prototype three-degree-of-freedom cabin model for a commercial truck is derived to study ride motions of the cabin under random road excitations. An active suspension system is designed using the linear-quadratic-Gaussian design methodology. The simulation results show the effectiveness of this methodology.
