ER 유체를 이용한 상용차 운전석의 반능동형 현가 장치

초록

This paper presents a new concept of a semi-active suspension system for a commercial vehicle seat. The proposes suspension system reatures an ER(electro-rheological) damper which can produce continuously tunable damping forces by control electric fields. A dynamic model of the ER damper is first achieved by incorporating Bingham property of the ER fluid, followed by the formulation of governing equations of motion for the suspension system. A sliding mode controller is then designed on the basis of the hyper-plane sliding mode scheme. The effectiveness of the proposed control system is evaluated by investigating control performance for vibration isolation.
