Book excerpt: The overall goal of this 3-year project was to study the performance of novel, fail-safe, magneto-rheological fluid (MRF) dampers by using innovative magneto-rheological (MR) materials for off-highway, high-payload vehicles such as the U.S. Army's High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). In the past 3 years, significant advances were achieved in the following areas: (1) MR materials development; (2) theoretical modeling and experimental study of a new compact fail-safe MR damper, including the design and development of a full-scale prototype; (3) a full-scale experimental set up for quarter-HMMWV-models; and (4) control system development for the nonlinear MR damper system. A systematic approach was followed to unify all efforts for this integrated research. Several new MR materials were developed and characterized that could be utilized in two new MR dampers with the same overall geometric dimensions as a regular HMMWV damper. A unique full-scale experimental set up was developed and tested. Extensive investigation was conducted on an accurate control system taking into account variation of the MR fluid's base viscosity and temperature. A list of 31 publications and conference papers is included. (4 tables, 37 figures, 31 refs.).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project focused on the fundamental understanding of behavior and development of novel magneto-rheological fluid (MRF) shock absorbers for mechanical systems. The aim of the study was on the feasibility of integrating controllable, semi-active, MRF shock absorbers in the suspension systems of the U.S. Army's High Mobility, Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV). New MRF damper designs were developed, fabricated and tested to meet and exceed the performance criteria set forth by the original equipment manufacture (OEM) test results. A nonlinear theoretical model was developed which can predict the performance of the MRF dampers. A unique capacity for bypass valving is included in the proposed design. A critical element of vehicle shock absorbers, bypass valving allows the shock absorber to accommodate high-force impulse loading (without failure) typical to off-highway environments. Moreover, a nonlinear fluid-mechanics based theoretical model was developed by employing Bingham plastic and Herschel-Bulkey non-Newtonian fluid models. Three dimensional electromagnetic finite element analysis was also performed for establishing a base for the MRF damper design. Extensive experiments were conducted to understand the nonlinear behavior of the new MRF dampers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of a small-scale compressible magneto-rheological (CMR) damper for a tracked vehicle suspension system. The feature of the CMR damper combines the functions of a liquid spring and a controllable fluid damper together, which increases the mobility of these heavy vehicles while improving the stability and safety as well. The proposed CMR damper consists of a cylinder, piston-rod arrangement with an annular MR valve. The internal pressure in the chambers on either side of the piston develops the spring force. The damping force is developed when the fluid flows through the MR valve. A fluid-mechanics based model is considered to predict the behavior of the device under sinusoidal input. In addition, the non-dimensional analysis of the proposed model is presented which can be used as a tool for design analysis and scalability of the CMR dampers. The performance of the CMR damper filled with pure silicone oil and a MR fluid are studied under oscillatory vibrations for various frequencies and applied magnetic fields. Experimental results show good agreement with the theoretical predictions. The CMR damper generates a considerable spring rate and controllable damping force based on the required tracked vehicle specifications.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magneto rheological (MR) fluid based dampers are very promising for semi-active or adaptive suspension control system which is filled with MR fluid. Its huge advantages attract the researchers to use it in more advanced application. MR damper's damping force can be controlled by changing the viscosity of its internal magneto-rheological fluids (MRF). However the requirement of external power source is one of the major concerns. Self-powered MR damper is one of the recent advancement which is accomplished only for double ended MR damper. In this work an energy generated mono tube MR damper has been designed and investigated with power generation which has a huge demand in the vehicle suspension system. This damper combines the advantages of energy harvesting (reusing wasted energy) and MR damping (controllable damping force). This multifunctional integration would bring great benefits such as energy saving, size and weight reduction, lower cost, high reliability, and less maintenance for the MR damper systems. The proposed MR damper model consists permanent magnet and coil combination of energy generation. Two magnetic fields are induced inside this damper. One is in the outer coil of the power generator and another is the piston head coils. A 2-D Axisymmetric model of energy generated MR damper is developed in COMSOL Multiphysics where it is analyzed extensively by finite element method and its hardware model is tested by Universal Testing Machine (UTM). The complete magnetic isolation between these two fields is accomplished here, which can be seen in the finite element analysis and damper characteristic analysis. The energy generation ability of the MR damper model is tested by UTM and oscilloscope combination and the maximum output voltage is measured around 0.8 volts by oscilloscope. Finally, experimental dampers characteristic analysis is performed by using RD-8041-1 MR Damper. These results are compared with the hardware model experimental results, which clearly validate the hardware model damper characteristic.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the point of view of suspension damper, semi-active dampers with only minimal power requirement could be applied to achieve variable damping to enhance suspension performance under complex vibration and shock environments. Magneto-rheological (MR) fluid based dampers offer significant potential for realizing semi-actively controlled variable damping with only minimal power. The MR-fluid dampers invariably exhibit considerable hysteresis, while the damping force varies with the intensity of applied electro-magnetic field and the nature of vibration in a highly nonlinear manner. A simulation model based on symmetric and asymmetric sigmoid functions is developed to fully characterize the properties of a MR-damper as function of excitation and control current. A comprehensive laboratory test program is undertaken to characterize the damping properties of a MR damper under wide ranges of excitations and control current. The essential fundamental features are identified for the modeling task, while the model parameters are identified using multi-parameter error minimization techniques. The validity of the proposed generic model is thoroughly examined by comparing the model response with the measured data under a wide range of excitations, particularly the force saturation and the hysteresis behaviour. An independent current function is further derived that could be integrated to reported regression-based hysteresis models to enhance their prediction abilities. From the results of the study, it is concluded that the refined Bouc-Wen and the proposed generalized sigmoid function model can fully characterized the nonlinear MR damping behaviour as function of applied current and excitation. A nonlinear analytical model of a pneumatic suspension seat including the motion limiting stops is developed for synthesis and analyses of the MR-damping control algorithms. The validity of the passive suspension seat model is thoroughly examined under various deterministic and random vibration excitations of varying intensities. The results suggest that attenuation of shock as well as vibration imposes difficulties design compromise of the passive damper. Owing to the strongly nonlinear properties of the suspension-seat and the MR-damper, such as hysteresis, saturation and end-stop impacts, a 'hi-lo' semi-active control algorithm is synthesized to realized modulation of the control current and thus the damping force following the skyhook control law. A continuous modulation function is further synthesized and integrated to ensure smooth transition between the 'hi' and 'lo' states. A relative position control is further introduced to limit the frequency and severity of shock motions caused by end-stop impacts. A set of performance measures is proposed to assess the characteristics of the semi-active and the resulting integrated controller under a wide range of excitations, including deterministic excitations of continuous and transient nature and random excitations of different vehicles. The potential performance benefits of the controller design are further investigated through a hardware-in-the-loop test and simulation program. The results are used to demonstrate the validity of the MR-damper and suspension seat models, and effectiveness of the control algorithm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis focused on the development of semi- active suspension by using magneto-rheological damper. The MR damper is a type of damper that used MR fluid as working fluid which enables us to change damping force and setting of suspension without need to setting manually damper itself. It can be achieve by changing the current flow on it magnetic circuit.This thesis first introduces MR technology through a discussion of MR fluid and then by giving a broad overview of MR devices that is being developed. After giving the reader an understanding of MR technology and devices, MR damper basics are presented. This section includes a discussion of MR damper types, mathematical fundamentals, and an approach to magnetic circuit design. With the necessary background information covered, MR dampers for automotive use are then discussed. Then come to design part. By using specification same as Proton Waja passive damper, the model was develop by using SOLIDWORK software. The design used twin tube damper with same size of outer tube of OEM damper. The parameter like number of turn, length and diameter of the wire, current induced, magnetic field generated, head piston velocity, and force produced by MR damper was be calculated and discussed. The result show the damper produced 6475.441 Newton of maximum force when 3 ampere of current being applied to the damper. The force generated by damper at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 ampere was plotted in a single graph versus piston head velocity in order to give better view of result.

Book excerpt: Mountain biking has significantly evolved recently, thanks to utilizing cutting-edge technologies in mountain bicycle design and fabrication. In this research we study development of a semi-active suspension system using magneto-rheological (MR) fluid dampers instead of conventional oil based shocks. MR dampers are devices with magnetic field dependent damping characteristics.Low power consumption, high controllability, quick response, and high durability are among the major features of MR dampers. In this work we first investigate the damping characteristics of MR dampers to find out if characteristics comparable to the conventional shocks used in mountain bikes can be achieved. To this end,experimental tests were performed on an off-the-shelf MR damper. The results indicate that damping characteristics similar to the ones used in mountain bikes can in fact be achieved using MR technology.However, requirements such as small weight and wide dynamic range have to be addressed in designing a MR damper for mountain bikes. These considerations are studied in this thesis by formulating a simple design followed by a constrained optimization problem and designing the damper accordingly. Utilizing Finite element modeling and simulation tools are further utilized to fine tune and optimize the design.A prototype MR damper is fabricated after the above design steps are carried out.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnetorheological (MR) damper is one of the most advanced applications of semi active damper in controlling vibration. Due to its continuous controllability in both on and off state its practice is increasing day by day in the vehicle suspension system. MR damper's damping force can be controlled by changing the viscosity of its internal magnetorheological fluids (MRF). Still there are some problems with this damper such as MR fluid's sedimentation, optimal design configuration considering all components of the damper, power consumption and temperature rising etc. In this paper both 2-D Axisymmetric and 3-D models of MR Damper are built and finite element analysis is done widely for design optimization. Different configurations of MR damper piston, MR fluid gap, air gap and dampers housing are simulated for comparing the dampers performance variation. From the analytical results it is observed that among different configurations single coil MR damper with linear plastic air gap, top and bottom chamfered piston end and medium MR fluid gap shows better performance than other configurations by maintaining the same input current and piston velocity. Further a prototype MR fluid is developed experimentally where the carbonyl iron particles are coated with xanthan gum to reduce sedimentation and the experimental results are noticeably verifying the improved sedimentation stability. The performance of dampers' containing this new prototype MR fluid are observed by simulation models. Here the outcomes are obviously declaring damper improvement as they are delivering larger damping force compare to the MR damper with conventional fluid. In addition a power saving MR damper model has developed by finite element analysis using ANSYS software, this energy saving MR damper model is obviously showing the solution of damper's temperature rising problem. At last an experimental analysis is performed by using RD-8041-1 MR Damper. These results are compared with the optimized MR Damper's simulation results, which clearly validate the simulated results.

MR dampers are semi-active suspension devices that use MR fluids to produce a controllable damper. The mechanical properties of the suspension can be controlled by adjusting the yield stress of the MR fluid. In this book, the design development for a new mixed mode MR damper with combination of shear and squeeze working modes was carried out. The magnetic field generated by electromagnetic coils in MR damper was analyzed using finite element method. The MR damper was designed and fabricated based on the simulation results. Combination of process parameters of working modes condition and applied current under quasi-static loadings were used in the experiments. Results, the unique damping characteristics of mixed mode MR damper was found where in general, a higher damping force has obtained in mixed mode than single mode. Eventually, the design of MR damper will provide an opportunity to study and consequently understand on how the MR fluids react to such operating condition in order to be realized in the MR damper.
