Abstract
A novel adaptive control scheme is developed for active suspension systems (ASSs) based on neural networks (NNs) and backstepping control strategies. Since the springs and piecewise dampers are nonlinear, the unknown internal dynamics are approximated by radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs). Then, to solve the time-varying constrains of both vertical displacement and corresponding speed in vehicle body, the Tangent Barrier Lyapunov Functions (TBLFs) are incorporated into the controller design. Furthermore, the adaptive controller and adaptive laws are designed to improve the riding comfortable, handling stability and driving safety. In the end, the simulation results show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed adaptive algorithm compared with unconstrained adaptive approach.
