This paper proposes a method for damping force modeling of magnetorheological (MR) damper featuring bypass hole. After describing configuration and of the MR damper, a damping force modeling of the MR damper is derived based on Bingham model of MR fluid. MR damper consists of piston, accumulator, gap, bypass hole and coil. Damping force is consists of spring force induced by accumulator, viscous force induced at gap and bypass hole, and controllable force induced at gap.

This paper presents the simultaneous optimal design of structure and LQG control systems for the improvement of riding comforts of active vehicle suspension systems. The performance index of riding comforts is extended to include frequency-weighted acceleration in the quadratic cost functional. Janeway human response curve with respect to acceleration is used to verify the usefulness of the presented method. The method is applied to a half model of an active vehicle suspension systems with elastic body moving on randomly profiled road. The values of stiffness of suspensions are used for the structural design variables. The conjugate gradient method is used for optimization. The simulated results of simultaneous optimization with frequency-weighted cost functional are compared with those without frequency- weighted cost functional.

The paper examines the ride performance enhancement that can be obtained by applying hydraulic semiactive vibration absorbers(SAVa) to alter the compliance characteristics of the seat/wheel suspension system. The work relies on a consistent model of the (nonlinear) hydrodynamics of the SAVA. A recently developed Lyapunov control scheme is used to provide regulation.. The performance is first examined assuming a quarter car with a seat/seat mounted mass. The paper then employs a quarter car/seat with a two mass ISO model of the seated human . The simulated results indicated that a reduction of 45% of the peak vertical acceleration is achievable with new system.

최근 철도는 미래의 핵심교통수단이자 저탄소 녹색성장을 대표하는 교통수단으로 주목받고 있다. 그 중 자기부상열차는 바퀴 마찰에 따른 소음 진동 분진이 없는 차세대 교통수단이며, 이를 지지하는 구조물(교량)은 열차의 운행 안정성(동적거동)을 고려한 설계가 필요하다. 또한, 상부 구조물은 자기부상열차의 연행이동등분포하중을 지지하며, 이러한 하중조건을 갖는 차량이 운행할 때 상부 구조물은 설계기준사항들을 만족해야한다. 도시형 자기부상철도 토목구조물 설계기준에 의하면 도시형 자기부상철도의 운행 안정성(동적거동)을 평가하기 위한 항목들로 대상 구조물의 고유진동수, 승차감을 고려한 연직처짐 등이 요구된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 자기부상열차의 실 열차하중을 고려하여 연행이동등분포하중으로 철도교량의 동적거동을 검토하였으며, 설계기준을 적용하여 대상 철도 교량의 운행 안정성을 평가하였다.

This paper compares seat vibrations of a small passenger car and a SUV. The results also include the comparison of the human body accelerations and the ride values, such as the component ride values, and SEAT values of 12 axis accelerations obtained at the human body and seat track. The ride comfort evaluation is usually carried out by experiments of real cars which are expensive and sometimes may contain errors by passenger's postures. Simulations by computer, on the other hand, enable to solve these problems when the accuracy is proven. This paper, thus, also shows the correlation of human body vibration between experiments and computer simulations. For the computer simulation, korean dummy models are developed from the Hybrid III models by scaling the body data of Hybrid III to those of Korean men and women. From the comparison between the test data and simulation data, a nice correlation in trends was shown.

The human subject perception response according to vertical vibration and pitching was analyzed with a five degree of freedom model. The vehicle dynamic system with the delayed colored noise excitation and the passenger perception response was arranged as an integrated viration system and could be analyzed simultaneously for seven different combination of vehicle suspension. ISO2631 and BS6841 was adapted for analyzing the passenger perception reponse. Simulation results shows that passenger feel relatively less discomfort due to pitching compared to vertical vibration and road type was not necessary to be considered as a design parameter in view of comfort analysis.

Recently, rolling stock technology has rapidly developed. Nevertheless, ride quality and vibration vibration on vehicle still need more study. EMU to be operated on SMRT Line 7(SR001) extension section is applied to oil-free reciprocating air compressor considering maintainability and convenience of inspection. But reciprocating air compressor compresses the air by back-and-forth motion of piston, and spreads the vibration to surrounding structures by its force of inertia. Optimum design of mounting bracket is able to reduce the vibration. As a result, we analyzed the frequency spectrum on vibration upon value by measuring vibration during operation of air compressor. On this study, we comprehend the vibration transmission process of reciprocating air compressor and consider the measure for reducing vibration by minimizing propagation of vibration.

For an electromagnetic suspension (EMS)-type urban Maglev train using U-shaped electromagnets, both the vertical and the lateral air gaps for levitation are maintained only by the electromagnet. The train can run over curved rails without active lateral air gap control because the U-shaped electromagnet simultaneously produces both a levitation force and a guidance force, which is dependent on the levitation force. Owing to the passive control of the lateral air gap, the lateral vibration could exceed the limits of the lateral air gap and acceleration. In this study, dynamic analysis of a Maglev train is carried out, and the effectiveness of a lateral damper for vibration reduction is investigated. To more accurately predict the lateral vibration, a Maglev vehicle multibody model including air-sparing, guideway irregularities, electromagnets, and their controls is developed.

This study aims to develop the control system of vehicle height and apply this developed system to common passenger car. The vibration characteristics to affect ride comfort are examined through driving tests. The hydraulic control system of vehicle height is designed by Macpherson type used most commonly at current passenger car. Tests in this study are operated by the vehicle installed with genuine suspension system of Macpherson type, tuning suspension system and hydraulic control system of vehicle height. As vibration characteristics transmitted to vehicle become random types values of PSD(Power Spectrum Density) are compared.

This work presents a comparative work on the ride comfort of a quarter car suspension system between two different magneto-rheological (MR) dampers; one is conventional type without bypass hole and the other is featured by several bypass holes in the piston. As a first step, two different MR dampers are designed on the basis of the governing equation and manufactured with same geometric dimensions except the bypass holes. After investigating the field-dependent damping properties, two dampers are installed to the quarter car suspension system. The suspension model is then derived and a sky-hook controller is implemented to identify vibration control performance under random road. It is shown that the suspension system with MR damper featured by the bypass holes can provide much better ride quality than the case without the bypass holes. This is validated via experimental implementation.
