New direct synthesis of nonlinear optimal control of semi-active suspensions

摘要

This paper deals with the new method of direct synthesis of nonlinear optimal control of semi-active vehicle suspensions. The dynamics of vehicle suspensions is usually highly nonlinear. Therefore their control both active and semi-active should be nonlinear, e.g. gain scheduling. The control synthesis is being done usually by multiobjective parameter optimisation (MOPO) of proposed control law. This is however difficult and especially tedious task requzring many iterations.
