As an important part of the vehicle driving system, the performance of the suspension system has a direct impact
8、on the comfort and safety of the occupants 1e4. At present, there are three types of vehicle suspension system,including passive,semi-active andactive suspension. Amongthem, the passivesuspension system isused in most cars. Although it can improvethe comfort andhandling stabilityof the vehicle toace
9、rtain degree,its structural parameters cannot be changed in real time with the running state of the vehicle. Active suspension system is more elastic and effi cient than the other two kinds in getting better driving comfort and handling stability 5,6. Therefore, studying the active suspension is ver

The control is a kennel unit for any active suspensions. To this end, a lot of scholars have been researchin

Aimed on different performance objectives, various active suspension control strategy have been proposed such as optimal control 7e10, H control 11,12, sliding mode control 13,14, adaptive control 15,16, fuzzy control 17, and so on. Although some go

14、rder to simplify its structure. One of challenging problems is how to consider time delay occurring in the control loop 18. Furthermore, it often degrades the control performance and even leads tothe system losing its stability such that the control is invalid 19e21. Thus, a great deal of time delay
15、 elimination and compensation technology has emerged such as methods of Smith predictor, phase-shift and recursive response 22e25. These methods can deal with time delay and improve the control effect to a certain extent. It is worth mentioning that in Ref. 22 the time delay caused by the response o
16、f Magneto-rheological (MR) damper actuator is measured and the authors apply the Smith predictive control to design time delay compensation controller and to improve the performance of the vehicle semi-active suspension effectively. On the other hand, utilizing active delays can also improve the per
17、formance of a controlled system 26. Following such view, studies have showed that the reasonable time delay used in control can also improve the stability and damping effect of the system 27,28. And the time-delayed feedback forms are diversity. Such as displacement, acceleration and velocity combin
18、ed time-delayed feedback respectively 28e30. These could improve the performance of the system effectively when the feedback gain and time delay are properly selected. For example, Zhao 31 studied the damping mechanism of nonlinear dynamic vibration absorber with time delay. The response curve of th
19、e main system is gained through the method of multiple scales. It shows that the damping effect of the nonlinear dynamic vibration absorber with time delay is obviously better than that with no time delay dynamic vibration absorber. Xu 32 found that the time delay can change the effective frequency
20、range of saturation control, which can be used as a control parameter to suppress the systemvibration effectively. Sun 33,34 developed a time-delayed absorber considering the inherent and active time delay. The theoretical predictions, numerical simulations and experimental results show that it supp
21、resses the vibration of the traditional system when the passive absorber fails. Moreover, choosing the proper control parameters may broaden the effective frequency band of vibration absorption. Sun 35 studied the stability and response of a nonlinear isolator with time-delayed active control to obt
22、ain the standards for time delay and control strengths, and the optimal value of time delay is given on the base of the vibration dissipation time through eigenvalues analysis. Zhang 36 studied the modelling and tuning of the TDVA (time-delayed vi- bration absorber) with friction through integrated
23、analysis and experiment. The simulation and experimental results both show that it provides a direct method to tune the vibration absorption ratio via tunable parameters. And the time-delayed control can be achieved accurately by using the modelling and tuning technique. However, there are still som
24、e shortcom- ings in researches mentioned above such as there is no fundamental solution to the problem of time delay control stability, almost no research measure the time delay in active suspension systems and verify the effectiveness of control strategy by experiment. Driven by these problems, thi
25、s paper tries to propose a new method for designing control strategy considering time delay to active suspension, aiming at solving the stability of suspension control and enhancing the practical engineering value of application. In this paper, to guarantee the stability of the system, the time-dela

The state transformation can be used to consider the time delay of the system. The optimal control can get a better control law. In order to accurately compensate the time de

30、n section 6, the effi ciency of the time-delayed optimal control strategy is illustrated experimentally and numerically. The dynamic characteristics of system under random excitation is analyzed by simulation in section 7. The conclusion is given in the fi nal section. 2. Modelling and formulation I
31、n order to illustrate the effectiveness of the time-delayed optimal control for suspension system, a suspension system control model is established. According to the vertical vibration of the vehicle body is the main factor affecting the ride comfort of the vehicle. And the structure of the vehicle
32、is quite complex. Now neglecting the pitch motion and roll motion of the vehicle body, a quarter-vehicle suspension model is set up shown in Fig. 1 by using passive suspension components and Magneto rheological (MR) damper as actuator. It is a 2-DOF simplifi ed model widely used in the literature 37

Due to the suspension structure, the relative displacement between the sprung mass and the unsprung mass, xs? xw, must be

Then the control strategy is easy to get the control gain matrix K based on optimal control. It is very extensively accepted in control applications. However, the suspension control loo

The state equation of suspension system becomes a functional equation because of the time delay, so the stability of the system must be analyzed.
