Active
Suspension
Unlike
a conventional suspension system which uses springs and dampers,
an active suspension system is a computer controlled suspension
system which uses power actuators to control the ride height,
damping rate and stiffness to provide the best setting depending
on conditions.
Many active suspension systems fitted to high-end luxury or
sports vehicles monitor and change their setting hundreds
of times a second to keep the vehicle in optimum contact with
the road surface.
An active suspension system varies from an adjustable
suspension system due to the fact that all the changes
on an active suspension system occur while the vehicle is
in motion.
