Control algorithm for vehicle height adjustable system of hydro-pneumatic suspension based on LuGre model

摘要

In order to control the vehicle body position precisely,1/4 nonlinear mathematical model of hydro-pneumatic suspension is established,and the influence of the frictional force in a hydraulic cylinder is analyzed.The friction characteristics are described based on the LuGre model when the piston of a hydraulic actuator is operated at a low speed.Due to the fact parameters of the friction model are effected by the system condition,an adaptive friction compensation(AFC)controller is designed through the Backstepping method,and a dual-observer has been implemented to estimate the friction state.The global asymptotic convergence of a closed-loop system is proven by the Lyapunov theorem.The simulation results show that the positional accuracy of the adaptive friction compensation yiedls a significant improvement in the vehicle height adjustment as compared to the PID control,demonstrating the effectiveness of the adaptive fiction compensation method in the vehicle height adjustable system of the hydro-pneumatic suspension.
