Abstract

The goal of this paper is to design an effective Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller, which will control the active suspension system of a car, in order to eliminate the imposed vibration to the car from pavement. In this research, Gaussian white noise has been adopted to model the pavement condition, and MATLAB/Simulink software has been used to design a PID controller, as well as to model the effect of the white noise on active suspension system. The results show that the designed controller is effective in eliminating the effect of road conditions. This has a significant effect on reducing the fuel consumption and contributes to environment sustainability.
