Abstract

Operation of a continuously variable semiactive damper of the system is modified so as to reduce generation in the system of undesirable shocks and noise. The modifications include delaying some or all of the changes in the on/off states of the damper, and/or limiting the rate and/or extent of changes in the damping coefficient of the damper at certain of the times when the damper is in an on state.
