Abstract

Recently, the automobile industry has begun applying an increasing number of systems to recycling wasted energy. One area that demands further research is the recycling and storing of energy in car suspension systems, especially in terms of developing an electronic interface to keep energy flowing bidirectionally. An electronic interface was designed to facilitate control of regenerative forces and store energy after the rectification process. The electronic interface was designed to be a symmetrical-bridgeless boost converter, due to this mechanism having few components and requiring little control effort. The converter was created such that it kept the current and voltage in phase for the maximum power factor. The input into this controller was the generator voltage used to determine the polarity of the pulse-width modulation, considering external road disturbances. Thus, this combination of converter and controller was able to replace an active controller. Variable resistance could be further controlled to manipulate the suspension damping force.

蓄热式悬架系统电-电接口设计与控制

最近，汽车工业已经开始应用越来越多的系统来回收被浪费的能源。一个需要进一步研究的领域是汽车悬架系统中的能量回收和储存，特别是在开发电子接口以保持能量双向流动方面。设计了一个电子接口，以方便控制再生力，并在整流过程后存储能量。电子接口被设计成一个对称无桥升压转换器，因为这种机制具有很少的组件，并且需要很少的控制努力。该转换器的创建使其保持电流和电压相一致，以获得最大的功率因数。考虑到外部道路干扰，该控制器的输入是用于确定脉宽调制极性的发电机电压。因此，这种转换器和控制器的组合能够取代主动控制器。可以进一步控制可变阻力来操纵悬架阻尼力。

期刊介绍： This international journal publishes both theoretical and application-oriented papers on various aspects of mechatronic systems, modelling, design, conventional and intelligent control, and intelligent systems. Application areas of mechatronics may include robotics, transportation, energy systems, manufacturing, sensors, actuators, and automation. Techniques of artificial intelligence may include soft computing (fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms/evolutionary computing, probabilistic methods, etc.). Techniques may cover frequency and time domains, linear and nonlinear systems, and deterministic and stochastic processes. Hybrid techniques of mechatronics that combine conventional and intelligent methods are also included. First published in 1972, this journal originated with an emphasis on conventional control systems and computer-based applications. Subsequently, with rapid advances in the field and in view of the widespread interest and application of soft computing in control systems, this latter aspect was integrated into the journal. Now the area of mechatronics is included as the main focus. A unique feature of the journal is its pioneering role in bridging the gap between conventional systems and intelligent systems, with an equal emphasis on theory and practical applications, including system modelling, design and instrumentation. It appears four times per year.
