ABSTRACT:
A method of controlling a vehicle suspension system comprising the steps of: determining a relative velocity between a wheel and the corner of a vehicle body; determining responsive to the relative velocity, according to a non-linear passive function, a raw wheel demand force; determining an average vertical velocity of the wheel; determining, responsive to the average vertical velocity of the wheel, a first scaling factor; multiplying the first scaling factor by the raw wheel demand force to determine a scaled wheel demand force; and controlling the vehicle suspension system responsive to the scaled wheel demand force.
