Abstract

The Automobiles have become a part of our everyday life. Since their common introduction and popularization in the 1910s. They have come a long way. Early vehicles did have a form of suspension which was borrowed from the horse carriages. This however proved to be too stiff for the vehicles powered by artificial engines, rather than horses. To counter this a lot of research was done pertaining to this subject and the result was the modern-day class of suspension systems, which are entirely passive and are either based on hydraulics based on oil, pneumatic based on air or simply spring type, or a combination of these. Lately the high-end vehicle segment introduced a technology of active suspension, rather than passive one. This design uses sensors to determine road contours to determine the action the suspension should take so that the vehicle experiences least acceleration vertically and laterally, also known as a bump. This work analyses a simple active suspension system.
