The Effect of Delayed Feedback Control on Lateral Semi-Active Suspension System for High-Speed Train

In order to suppress the lateral vibration of high-speed train caused by track irregularity, the delayed feedback control is employed to suppress the vibration of the semi-active suspension system. The 1/4 vehicle mathematical model of semi-active suspension system is established. The amplitude of the bodys lateral vibration is large at some values of external excitation frequency for the passive suspension system, and it could be suppressed at some values of time delay, while the vibration of the bodys lateral vibration may be deteriorated at other values of time delay. The results show that the amplitude of the bodys lateral vibration could be suppressed about 50% when the suitable values of damping coefficient and time delay are chosen by comparing with the passive suspension system. The analytical results of this paper are in good agreement with the numerical simulation.
