Abstract
In modern vehicles, intelligent suspension systems have been widely applied with complex
control algorithms. The suspension design problem aims to achieve a good suspension providing a
comfortable ride and good handling within a reasonable range of road-profile deflection. In this
paper, the proportional-integral-derivative-accelerated (PIDA) controller design for the magnetically
levitated (Maglev) vehicle suspension system by the Lévy-flight firefly algorithm (LFFA), one of the
most powerful metaheuristic optimization searching techniques, is proposed. For comparison with
LFFA-based design approach, the results obtained by the PIDA controller will be compared with
those obtained by the PI, PD and PID controllers. Simulation results show that the LFFA can provide
optimal PIDA controller for a given suspension system. The PIDA controller yielded very satisfactory
response superior to PI, PD and PID, respectively.
