A mixed control system for active suspension for off-road vehicles

Since the passive suspension system is not enough for creating good compromise between road handling and ride comfort for off-road vehicles, this paper presents a study on the application of an active suspension system. In this work, a neuro-fuzzy controller (NFC) is developed for two and three-a...
