Introduction Ongoing energy crises such as oil shortages and problems such as environmental pollution have become great challenges to the automotive industry.
The suspension system energy harvester is the complement for the onboard alternator, and the harvested vibration energy can charge the vehicle battery and provide power for the relevant load [10, 11]. Currently, researchers have conducted numerous studies on energy harvesting based on vehicle suspension systems.
This paper dealt with the electromagnetic suspension system consisting of a permanent-magnet DC motor, a ball screw, and a nut along with the energy storage system including a unidirectional converter, a full wave rectifier, and an ultracapacitor stack.
Currently, researchers have conducted numerous studies on energy harvesting based on vehicle suspension systems. When a typical passenger car is driven at a speed of 97 km/h on a good road surface, the potential for harvested power can reach between 100 and 400 W, which is equivalent to a 3% increase in fuel efficiency [12, 13].
It can be deduced from Table 3 that the semi-active electromagnetic suspension system has better performance in comparison with the passive electromagnetic suspension system while the energy regeneration of the semi-active electromagnetic suspension system is more than that of the passive electromagnetic suspension system.
