The Evolution of Vehicle Pneumatic Vibration Isolation: A Systematic Review
Whole‐body vibration (WBV) is a significant concern for vehicle users as it can negatively impact their health and comfort. As such, effective vibration isolation is critical in vehicle suspension design. The ability of a vehicle suspension to isolate vibrations depends primarily on the suspension design and the type of springs used. One type of spring

This paper presents research results on semiactive suspension using a fuzzy logic controller. Firstly, a full car model is built with 7 degrees of freedom using a semiactive suspension system at all four wheels. The dynamic equations are converted to the state space representation to facilitate control design and improve accuracy in simulation design ...

Modeling and Design of ANFIS Dynamic Sliding Mode Controller for a Knee Orthosis of Hemiplegia
The use of assistive devices to control the loss of strength and range of motion of hemiplegic patients is becoming common. It is difficult to develop a precise control approach for a knee orthosis system because of the unpredictability of the dynamics and the unwanted subject’s spasm, jerk, and vibration during gait assistance.
