Laboratory investigations of an active vehicle suspension in-series structure the slow-active type are presented in this paper. The multidimensional model is reduced to a case representing quarter car suspension. Control laws for vibration reduction systems usually determined based upon linear models objects. Active suspensions characterised by nonlinearity, connected most often with actuating and their energetic restrictions. This causes divergences between theoretical quality factors those...
