Advanced active suspension systems has attracted considerable attention in modern railway vehicle designs in recent years. The purpose of the suspension is to attenuate the vehicle vibrations due to various rail excitations. With active suspensions it is aimed to improve the performance in some cases, while not making it worse in others. The performance-related objectives can be approximately translated in different norm bounds on certain transfer functions or impulse responses.
