Abstract

This paper introduces the use of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to tune Skyhook controller & Sensitivity Analysis method to tune PID controller for semi-active suspension system in furtherance of increasing and enhancing the ride comfort and vehicle stability. The performance of skyhook and PID controller are optimized by PSO and Sensitivity Analysis respectively. The mean square error (MSE) of the system is set as an objective function for optimization process of the proposed controller. The performances of proposed controllers are compared with the passive system in terms of sprung displacement & sprung acceleration. The bump & hole and random road profile is set as a disturbance of the system. The simulated results reflect that the proposed controllers offer a significant improvement in ride comfort and vehicle stability.
