On the CRONE Suspension

This paper studies robust control and advanced suspension of vehicles with focus on the CRONE suspension system that is based on non-integer derivation. After first describing the principle of the CRONE suspension and its model, the paper develops the synthesis method of the suspension. It then describes the constrained optimization to determine CRONE suspension parameters. Frequency and time responses are examined, showing the robustness of both the resonance and damping ratios versus load variation.
