Abstract:

Improvement in ride quality of vehicle while passing through rough terrain or speed bump is of great importance for design engineers. The quality is controlled by introducing electronic controlled suspension system. A fuzzy control is an intelligent control which can improve the suspension performance significantly. In this paper a fuzzy controller has been designed and simulated to bring the overshoot of sprung mass within the range of 5% which is a worldwide acceptable range for good ride quality. A two degree of freedom quarter car model was developed with fuzzy controller to analyse its performance in bringing the overshoot with in the desired range.

Keywords:
