Abstract

The Magnetorheological (MR) damper system serves as a semi-active suspension system designed to absorb road disturbances. This research aims to replicate the MR damper system through a parametric modeling approach, specifically employing the Simple Bouc-Wen Model, Spencer Model, and Hyperbolic-Tangent Model. The objective of this paper is to assess the effectiveness of these modeled MR damper systems with the utilization of a Fuzzy-PID controller. The simulation process is conducted within MATLAB Simulink, whereby a block diagram is devised based on equations related to the suspension system and the parametric models. The inputs for the system encompass sinusoidal and bump road profiles. The outcomes from the modeled MR damper systems reveal that the semi-active suspension system outperforms the passive suspension system. The primary simulation metrics under consideration include sprung displacement, sprung acceleration, and unsprung acceleration. Among the three MR damper models, the Hyperbolic-tangent model displays the most favorable performance, with a mean squared error of 51.44%, while the Bouc-Wen model exhibits the least favorable performance, registering a mean squared error of 25.96%. The integration of the Fuzzy-PID controller demonstrates an enhancement in the sprung suspension system, though the sprung acceleration remains relatively unchanged.
