Response of a half-car model with optimal magnetorheological damper parameters

TLDR
It is observed that the MR damper suspension systems with optimal parameters perform an order of magnitude better than the passive suspension and perform as well as active suspensions with limited state feedback, and closer to the performance of fully active suspensions.
Abstract
In this paper, control of the stationary response of a half-car model with a magnetorheological (MR) damper moving over a random road is considered. The MR damper is characterized using Bingham and...
