Abstract | ||
ABSTRACT Electro-and magneto-rheological fluids are smart, synthetic fluids changing their viscosity from liquid to semi-solid state within milliseconds if a sufficient strong electric or magnetic field is applied. When used in suitable devices, they offer the innovative potential of very fast; adaptively interface between mechanical devices and electronic control units. This paper gives an overview on the basic properties of electro and magneto-rheological fluids and discusses various phenomenological models for rheological fluid dampers in vibratory systems. The dynamic response of a quarter-car model with MR- suspension damper is introduced and compared with one uses a conventional viscous damper. | ||
