Analytical research of damping efficiency and heat generation of magnetorheological damper

Magnetorheological (MR) dampers are currently used in various areas, such as: human prosthetics, seismic protection, active suspensions, safety systems, amongst other. This paper deals with the proper design of a MR damper in the innovative field for vibration control. A methodology for calculation some principal characteristics of the damper such as: electromagnet’s magnetic field value, emitted heat and damping force is presented. The...
