    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for limit cycle detection and cessation. A control system generates a drive signal with at least one drive component. An actuator effects a response to the drive signal and a sensor measures the response. Characteristics of the drive signal and of the drive components are accessed by a controller. The characteristics are compared to a predetermined set of characteristics. When the characteristics fall within the predetermined set of characteristics, a magnitude of at least one of the characteristics is evaluated. When the magnitude exceeds a predetermined value indicative of the limit cycle, an action is undertaken to stop the limit cycle.

    摘要: A method for reshaping an electric drive signal of a real-time damper in a sprung mass system includes detecting a periodic frequency and magnitude of a target periodic vibration of a sprung mass. The periodic vibration has velocity and elasticity components that are 90 degrees out-of-phase. An electric drive signal to the real-time damper is reshaped by a controller depending on polarity of the velocity component to thereby generate a composite drive signal. The damper is energized using the composite drive signal to modify a damper force. Reshaping the electric drive signal includes injecting a force and/or an intermittent drive suppression component onto the electric drive signal based on the frequency and magnitude. The sprung mass system may have a frame and body, motion and wheel speed sensors, the real-time dampers, road wheels, and a controller programmed to perform the method.

    摘要: Methods and systems are provided for controlling a steering system of a vehicle is provided. A detection unit is configured to obtain one or more of the following values: a compass heading, a global positioning system (GPS) heading, a yaw velocity, and a difference in tire angular velocities. A processor is coupled to the detection unit, and is configured to determine whether a vehicle is on a straight line path using one or more of the compass heading, the GPS heading, the yaw velocity, and the difference in tire angular velocities, activate the steering system if it is determined that the vehicle is on a straight line path, and disable the feature of the steering system if it is determined that the vehicle is not on a straight line path.

    摘要: A method of controlling a assembly includes measuring a first amplitude of a selected harmonic order of the radial force variation of the assembly, and locating a first angular location of the selected order of the radial force variation of the assembly. A second angular location of a tire is located, which indicates a phase of the selected order of a radial force variation of the tire, having a second amplitude. A third angular location of a wheel is located, which indicates a phase of the selected order of a runout value of the wheel, and has a third amplitude. A remaining force metric may be calculated using the pairs of the first amplitude and the first angular location, the second amplitude and the second angular location, and the third amplitude and the third angular location.
