摘要: 为有效协同空气悬架中的阻尼与车身高度控制,基于模型预测控制理论,以整车综合评价指标为成本函数,当前状态下车身高度与可调阻尼减振器所能生成的悬架力为约束,设计了模型预测控制器,求解当前状态下的最优悬架力.利用可调阻尼减振器改变阻尼系数配合车身高度充放气操作使悬架生成该最优悬架力,以此获得阻尼与车身高度的协同.结果表明:所提协同控制策略切实可行,可大幅改善悬架的簧上质量加速度和轮胎动载荷均方根值;在有减速带工况下,协同控制策略能有效缩小25%的簧上质量加速度峰值和19%的簧下质量加速度峰值,而在转弯工况下,能缩小17%的簧上质量侧倾角峰值.Abstract: To cooperate damping and body height adjustment of the air suspension effectively, based on the model predictive control theory, a model predictive controller was designed to solve the optimal suspension force under the current vehicle state with vehicle comprehensive evaluation index as cost function, and the suspension forces could be generated by adjustable damper and body height adjustment as constraints. The optimal suspension force was generated by changing damping coefficient of the adjustable damper and charging and discharging operation of the body height adjustment, and the cooperation between damper and body height was obtained. The results show that the proposed cooperative control strategy is feasible and can greatly reduce the sprung mass acceleration of suspension and the root mean square value of tire dynamic load. Under the bump condition, the cooperative control strategy can effectively reduce the vibration peak values of sprung and unsprung mass by 25% and 19%, respectively. Under the turning condition, the strategy can reduce the peak value of vehicle roll angle by 17%.
