the field of automotive engineering With the constant evolution of vehicle technologies and the increasing demand for improved ride comfort and handling performance, the development of efficient suspension systems has become a pressing concern A welldesigned suspension system not only ensures passenger comfort but also plays a crucial role in vehicle stability, road handling, and overall safety Therefore, it is imperative to explore and optimize suspension control strategies to meet the ever-growing expectations of vehicle performance and safety − Research Objectives: The primary objectives of this research are twofold Firstly, it aims to develop a comprehensive model of a half-car system, encompassing the dynamics of the vehicle body, suspension components, and tire-road interaction This model will serve as the basis for studying the behavior of the active suspension system under various operating conditions Secondly, the research aims to design and evaluate a PID controller-based active suspension system for the half-car model The focus will be on optimizing the controller parameters to achieve improved ride comfort and enhanced handling performance − Research Content: The research will be divided into several key areas: • Firstly, a detailed review of the existing literature will be conducted to understand the fundamental principles and state-of-the-art techniques related to active suspension systems and PID control This literature review will lay the foundation for the subsequent stages of the research • Next, a dynamic model of the half-car system will be developed, considering the vehicle body, suspension subsystems, and tire dynamics This model will incorporate the various mechanical and electrical components that constitute the active suspension system, enabling a comprehensive analysis of its behavior • Subsequently, a PID controller will be designed to regulate the suspension system's response and enhance its performance The tuning of the PID controller parameters will be carried out using appropriate optimization algorithms to achieve the desired objectives of ride comfort and handling performance • To validate the effectiveness of the developed active suspension system, simulations will be performed under different road conditions and driving scenarios The performance metrics, such as suspension deflection, body acceleration, tire deflection, and road holding, will be evaluated and compared with those of traditional passive vi suspension systems − Research Methods: The research will primarily employ a combination of theoretical analysis, computer simulations, and experimental validation Theoretical analysis will involve studying the principles and mathematical models of active suspension systems, PID control, and vehicle dynamics Computer simulations using specialized software tools will be conducted to evaluate the performance of the active suspension system under various scenarios and to optimize the controller parameters − Limitations of the Topic: • It is essential to acknowledge certain limitations associated with this research Firstly, the focus will be primarily on a half-car model, which represents only a simplified representation of a full vehicle While this approach allows for more manageable analysis and simulation, it may not capture all the complexities and interactions present in real-world situations Additionally, the research will assume ideal conditions and perfect sensor measurements, which may not accurately reflect the practical implementation challenges and limitations • Moreover, the research will primarily concentrate on the PID control strategy, which is a widely used and well-established approach However, other advanced control techniques and strategies, such as model predictive control or adaptive control, which may offer further improvements, will not be extensively explored within the scope of this study • Lastly, the research will be limited to a theoretical and simulation-based investigation While efforts will be made to validate the findings through experimental testing, the real-world application and implementation of the active suspension system may introduce additional factors and uncertainties that are beyond the scope of this research Despite these limitations, this research endeavors to contribute to the existing knowledge base in the field of active suspension systems and PID control, providing insights and guidelines for the design and implementation of improved suspension systems that offer enhanced ride comfort and handling performance In conclusion, the urgency of this research topic lies in the growing demand for advanced suspension systems that can optimize ride comfort and handling performance in vehicles By developing a comprehensive model, designing a PID controller-based active suspension system, and evaluating its performance, this research aims to contribute to the advancement of automotive engineering and promote safer and more comfortable rides for passengers vii TABLE OF CONTENT ACKNOWLEDGMENT V INTRODUCTION VI TABLE OF FIGURES X OVERVIEW 1.1 Overview of
