Abstract

Ride quality is the most important for the passenger vehicle. Without any comfort on ride, the vehicles tend to vibrate and give a problem to vehicle stability. The vibrations occur because the suspension failed to absorb force from different type of road surface. This failure causes the unwanted vibration to the vehicle and as a result, many problems will occur. There are many research that have been done to create the better ride quality and one of it is research on the suspension system. This report studied is about the ride vehicle behaviour using magnetorheological damper. Magnetorheological damper is the semi-active suspension system. The 7 degree of freedom equation was developed by reference to the full car model. For this research, the control strategies used is hybrid control strategy, which is combination of the Skyhook and Ground hook control strategies. In this research, the Matlab Simulink software is used.
