Suspension <strong>Systems</strong> - Model<br />
Inputs<br />
The system has ten inputs, six <strong>of</strong> which are exogenous and the others<br />
controllable. These inputs are:<br />
• Exogenous:<br />
The road velocity inputs experienced at each wheel<br />
Vehicle pitch force (due to accelerating/braking/cornering the vehicle)<br />
Vehicle roll input (due to cornering the vehicle)<br />
• <strong>Control</strong>lable:<br />
Actuator forces applied to the suspension system at each corner <strong>of</strong><br />
the vehicle.<br />
• Outputs<br />
The ride quality can be quantified by examining the vertical and angular<br />
accelerations <strong>of</strong> the vehicle body, as well as the ability for the vehicle to<br />
remain level regardless <strong>of</strong> operating conditions.<br />
