Active Control of A Quarter-car Model Suspension System with Sliding Mode and Pid Control Approaches

This study covers a State Dependent Ricatti Equation (SDRE) based Sliding Mode Controller (SMC) and classical PID controller that are applied for an active control of the suspension system of a quarter car model. At first, this suspension system is controlled by SDRE based sliding mode controller for a road disturbance input and then for the same input the same system is controlled by classical PID controller. Finally, the results are compared.
