Abstract

This paper is concerned with a study on the control effect of the MR damper using the cutout piston. The MR damper has passive damping force by the oil pressure and controllable damping force by the magnetic effect. As the velocity of the MR damper's piston increases the passive damping force increases and the ratio of the controllable damping force to the total damping force is decreased. Consequently, the control performance of the MR damper is reduced according to the increase of the velocity. In this paper, the cutout piston concept is applied to the MR damper to improve MR damper's control performance by reducing the passive damping effect. The MR damper with the cutout piston has been designed and manufactured and its hydraulic and electromagnetic analysis has been performed to predict its performance. The control performances of the MR damper with the cutout piston are verified through the comparison of experiment results and simulation results.
