Abstract

Ride comfort and handling of off-road vehicles can be significantly improved by replacing the normal passive dampers in the vehicle suspension system with controllable Semi-active dampers. The semi-active damping control system with variable shock absorber is widely used to improve the vehicle dynamic characteristics such as ride comfort and driving safety. To achieve better vehicle performance, the shock absorber with wide range of damping force variation develops. This is practically achieved by external valve control by manually. The performance of the semi-active shock absorber is investigated by single degree freedom (quarter vehicle model) test rig.
