Abstract

Normally in order to build a semi-active control system equipped with MR damper, the dynamic modeling of the damper is required to numerically predict its dynamic damping force and also its behavioral characteristics. For the dynamic modeling of the MR damper, this paper attempts to predict and evaluate its dynamic behavior by applying specifically both a power model and a Bingham model. Dynamic loading tests were performed on the squeeze type of damper specially designed for this research, and force-displacement hysteresis loops confirmed the effectiveness of the damper as a semi-active control device. In the meantime, in order to evaluate the effectiveness of each model applied, the model parameter for each model was identified. On the basis of the parameter, we derived the error ratio of the force-velocity relationship curve and the dynamic damping force, which was contrasted and compared with the experimental results of the squeeze type of damper. Finally, the squeeze type of MR damper developed in this research was proved to be valid as a semi-active control device, and also the evaluation of the two dynamic models showed they were working fine so that they were likely to be easily utilized to numerically predict the dynamic characteristics of any dampers with MR fluid as well as the squeeze type of MR damper.

일반적으로 MR 감쇠기를 이용한 준능동 제어 시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 감쇠장치의 동적모델이 요구된다. 여기서, 동적모델링은 감쇠장치의 발생 감쇠력 및 거동 성향 등을 수치적으로 예측하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 MR 감쇠기의 동적거동을 실무적인 관점에서 합리적으로 모델링하기 위하여 다양한 동적모델 중 Power 모델 및 Bingham 모델을 적용해 MR 감쇠기의 동적거동특성을 예측 평가하였다. 이때 활용한 MR 감쇠기의 실험결과는 압착식 형태로 개발된 MR 감쇠기를 대상으로 동하중 실험을 수행하여 획득하였으며, 힘-변위 이력곡선으로부터 준능동 제어장치로의 타당성을 확인하였다. 또한, 각 동적모델의 예측성능을 평가하기 위하여 우선 실험결과를 이용해 각 동적모델 별 모델변수를 규명하였고, 이를 바탕으로 힘-속도 관계곡선 및 예측된 발생 감쇠력의 오차율을 산출하여 개발된 압착식 MR 감쇠기의 실험결과와 상호 비교 평가하였다. 최종적으로 본 연구에서 개발한 압착식 MR 감쇠기는 준능동 제어장치로 활용 가능함을 확인하였고, 평가된 두 가지 동적모델은 모두 우수한 예측성능을 보임으로써 본 연구에서 개발한 압착식 MR 감쇠기는 물론 MR유체를 이용한 다양한 형태의 감쇠장치의 거동특성을 수치적으로 예측하기 위하여 간단히 활용될 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다.
