ABSTRACT
This article explains the mechanics, control strategies and main applications of a new concept which achieves a balance between energy saving and driver comfort. A physical and mathematical model of a suspension system with energy recovery is presented. It shows practical implementation of the BLDC braking system with energy recovery in a horizontal seat suspension and a detailed simulation analysis of their features and performance. The research involves a specific solution, with a specific BLDC motor, and experimental tests on a laboratory stand. The results of the simulation study using a simplified biomechanical model and experimental studies with human participation are presented.
