A fuzzy-sliding mode controller is presented to control the dynamics of semi-active suspension systems of vehicles using magneto-rheological (MR) fluid dampers. A full car model is used to design and evaluate the performance of the proposed semi-active controlled suspension system. Four mixed mode MR dampers are designed, manufactured, and integrated with four independent sliding mode controllers. The siding mode controller is designed to decrease the energy consumption and maintain robustness. In order to overcome the chattering of the sliding mode controllers, a fuzzy logic control strategy is merged into the sliding mode controller. The proposed fuzzy-sliding mode controller is designed and fabricated. The performance of the semi-active suspensions is evaluated in both the time and frequency domains. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed fuzzy-sliding mode controller can effectively suppress the vibration of vehicles and improve their ride comfort and handling stability. Furthermore, it is shown that the "chattering" of the sliding mode controller is smoothed when it is integrated with a fuzzy logic control strategy. Although the cost function of the fuzzy-sliding mode control is a slightly higher than that of a classical LQR controller, the control effectiveness and robustness are enhanced considerably.

Due to the increase of the need for reliable high density information storage devices, the demand for precise machining of the slider in HDD is rapidly growing. The present fabrication process of slider bears some serious problems such as low yield ratio in mass production, which is mainly caused by inefficient machining processes in shaping camber and crown on the slider. In order to increase slider yield ratio in HDD, a new systematic machining process is proposed and developed in this work. This new machining process includes the use of magnetorheological (MR) fluid, a smart polishing material generally used for ultra-fine surface finishing of micro structures. It is shown that the process proposed in this work enables to make camber and crown pattern in the scale of few tens of nanometers. Experiment results shows that the MR polishing can be also used for shaping process of micro structures.

최근 인접 건축물의 진동제어와 관련된 연구가 몇몇 연구자에 의하여 수행되고 있으며 그리고 구조물의 지진동 제어를 위하여 준능동 감쇠기의 일종인 MR 감쇠기가 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 MR 감쇠기의 위치에 따른 인접 건축물의 지진동 제어성능을 분석하여 MR 감쇠기의 설치에 대한 최적의 위치를 선정하고자 한다. 본 연구를 위하여 인접한 20층과 15층 건축물을 예제 구조물로 사용하였으며 이 예제 구조물은 서로 다른 고유진동수를 갖게 하였으며 예제 구조물의 지진동 제어를 위하여 Groundhook 제어기법을 적용하였다. 예제 구조물의 수치해석에 의한 지진응답 분석결과, 변위응답 제어를 위하여 인접 건축물의 최상층에 MR 감쇠기를 설치하는 것이 제어성능에 있어서 우수하며 가속도응답을 제어하기 위해서는 인접 건축물의 중간층에 MR 감쇠기를 설치하는 것이 우수한 제어성능을 보이고 있다. MR 감쇠기를 중간층에 설치할 경우에, 변위응답과 가속도응답을 동시에 제어가 가능하다. 따라서 건축물의 제어 목표에 따라서 MR 감쇠기 설치위치를 적절하게 선정해야 할 것이다.

While tuned mass dampers are found to be effective in suppressing vibration in a tall building, integrating it with a semi-active control system enables it to perform more efficiently. In this paper a forty-story tall steel-frame building designed according to the Canadian standard, has been studied with and without semi-active and passive tuned mass dampers. The building is assumed to be located in the Vancouver, Canada. A magneto-rheological fluid based semi-active tuned mass damper has been optimally designed to suppress the vibration of the structure against seismic excitation, and an appropriate control procedure has been implemented to optimize the building's semi-active tuned mass system to reduce the seismic response. Furthermore, the control system parameters have been adjusted to yield the maximum reduction in the structural displacements at different floor levels. The response of the structure has been studied with a variety of ground motions with low, medium and high frequency contents to investigate the performance of the semi-active tuned mass damper in comparison to that of a passive tuned mass damper. It has been shown that the semi-active control system modifies structural response more effectively than the classic passive tuned mass damper in both mitigation of maximum displacement and reduction of the settling time of the building.

The maximum speed is one of the most important performance in high speed railway vehicle. The higher the train speed is, the worse the ride comfort is, In order to solve this problem, a semi-active or active suspension can be applied to high speed railway vehicle. The variable damper with hydraulic solenoid valve is used in the semi-active suspension. But the variable damper with hydraulic solenoid valve requires tank for supplying fluid. The MR(Magneto Rheological) damper can be considered instead of hydraulic variable damper which needs additional device, i.e. reserver tank for fluid. In the case of active suspension, hydraulic actuator or electro-mechanical one is used to suppress the carbody vibration in railway vehicle. In this study the MR damper and electro-mechanical actuator was considered in secondary suspension system of high speed railway vehicle. The dynamic analysis was performed by using 10-DOF dynamic equations of railway vehicle. The performance of the semi-active suspension and active suspension system were reviewed by using MATLAB/Simulink S/W. The vibration suppression effect of semi-active and active suspension system were investigated experimentally by using 1/5-scaled railway vehicle model.

The use of smart dampers to optimally control the response of structures is on the increase. To maximize the potential use of such damper systems, their accurate modeling and assessment of their performance is of vital interest. In this study, the performance of a controllable fluid dashpot damper, in terms of damper forces, damper dynamic range and damping force hysteretic loops, respectively, is studied mathematically. The study employs a damper Bingham-Maxwell (BingMax) model whose mathematical formulation is developed using a Fourier series technique. The technique treats this one-dimensional Navier-Stokes's momentum equation as a linear superposition of initial-boundary value problems (IBVPs): boundary conditions, viscous term, constant Direct Current (DC) induced fluid plug and fluid inertial term. To hold the formulation applicable, the DC current level to the damper is supplied as discrete constants. The formulation and subsequent simulation are validated with experimental results of a commercially available magneto rheological (MR) dashpot damper (Lord model No's RD-1005-3) subjected to a sinusoidal stroke motion using a 'SCHENK' material testing machine in the Materials Laboratory at the University of Technology, Sydney.
