This paper proposes a hydraulic circuit for a Magnetorheological (MR) damper that can be used for semi-active and active controls. Methods are presented for obtaining reliable damping force displacement and velocity data, and hysteresis loop data corresponding to applied current. In order to get reliable data, analysis using electric and electronic software, a series of tests. and comparative evaluations are required. A hydraulic circuit model is proposed that can be applied to analyze a MR damper without any assumptions where the yield stress data according to the applied current are known. Analysis results of the proposed hydraulic circuit are confirmed by experimental results within acceptable tolerance. This hydraulic circuit model can be applied to various MR dampers and systems.

A control element drive mechanism(CEDM) is a reactor regulating system, which inserts, withdraws or maintains a control rod containing a neutron absorbing material within a reactor core to control the reactivity of the core. The ball-screw type CEDM for the integral reactor has a spring-damper system to reduce the impact force due to the scram of the CEDM. This paper describes the experimental results to obtain the drop and damping characteristics of the CEDM. The drop tests are performed by using a drop test rig and a facility. A drop time and a displacement after an impact are measured using a LVDT. The influences of the rod weight, the drop height and the flow area of hydraulic damper on the drop and damping behavior are also estimated on the basis of test results. The drop time of the control element is within 4.5s to meet the design requirement, and the maximum displacement is measured as 15.6 mm. It is also found that the damping system using a spring-hydraulic damper plays a good damper role in the CEDM.

The objective of this study was to present a damped pneumatic suspension, a bike fork suspension, which can adapt itself to incoming road excitations is presented in this paper. It consists of a hydraulic damper and a pneumatic spring in parallel with a linear spring. The study also proposed a variable and switchable orifice, in the hydraulic damper, to select appropriate damping property. Hydraulic-pneumatic circuit model for the bike fork suspension was established based on AMESim, in order to predict its performance. In addition, elastic-damping characteristics of the fork such as spring constant and viscous damping coefficient were computed and compared, for validation, with those evaluated by experiment using the universal test machine. Through simulation analysis and test, it was established that the hydraulic-pneumatic circuit model is effective and practical for development of future MTB suspensions.

This paper presents the effects of cylinder shell elasticity on effective bulk modulus of oil $K_e$ in automotive hydraulic dampers. A theoretical model of cylinder shell bulk modulus $K_c$ based on the elasticity theory of thick-walled cylinder incorporating not only radial but longitudinal deformation is proposed. In a cylinder, values of $K_c$ by the new model and traditional models are computed and the discrepancies among them are discussed. In a twin-tube type automotive damper, the variation of $K_e$ under different pressure values in chambers of the damper cylinder, based on different theoretical models for $K_c$ is computed. Through these computations, it is shown that remarkable discrepancies in computed values of $K_e$ might occur according to the $K_e$ models in connection with $K_c$ models.

본 논문에서는 교량 밑 건축구조물, 각종 기계부품의 진동문제를 보완하기 위한 방법으로서 MR유체를 이용한 댐퍼를 연구하였다. MR 유체의 특성을 이용한 댐퍼를 모델링하여, 설계도면을 기초로 MR 댐퍼를 제작하였다. 만능재료 시험기를 이용하여 주파수와 전류 및 변위를 단계적으로 변화시켜가며 성능실험을 반복적으로 수행하였다. 실험을 통하여 주파수, 전류 및 변위에 따라 댐핑 효과가 다르게 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다.

Typically, the seat of an automotive vehicle generally includes a horizontal seat-cushion portion and a vertical seat-back portion that is operatively connected to the seat-cushion portion. The seat may include a recliner for the reclining of the seat-back portion relative to the seat-cushion portion by the seat occupant. An energy absorber or damper can also be provided for the seat-back portion. Because the recliner is configured to be released at a relatively high speed, and it results in an impact at the end of a folding stroke, the damper needs to dissipate energy as the seat back moves with respect to the seat cushion; therefore, the role of the seat damper in the automotive-seat design is important. In this paper, the mechanism of an hydraulic-type automotive-seat damper is investigated, and the torque characteristic is simulated according to the design-parameter variations such as the orifice area and the working-fluid properties.

This study is concerned with the hydraulic system for active suspension with a skyhook damper. The state variable equations of a sky-hook damper system are formulated forthe theoretical analysis, and the test rig of the syspension is constructed. The Simulation results show fair agreement with the experiment. It is found in the experiment that the suspension with the skyhook damper shows much better driving stability and ri ding comfort compared to that with the passive damper.

본 연구에서는 나노기술을 이용하여 에너지 감쇄 기능을 활용한 내진용 감쇄기 개발에 대한 연구를 하였다. 구조물에 사용되는 기존의 유체 감쇄기를 대체하는 무기재료를 이용한 새로운 감쇄기에 대한 기초적 연구를 하였다. 완충역할을 하는 입자로는 미로구조를 가지는 실리카겔을 사용하였으며, 입자에 관련한 작동 유체로는 물을 사용하여 그 효과를 검증하였다. 콜로이드 감쇄기를 구현하기 위해서는 형성된 실리카 겔 입자의 표면을 유기 실리콘 매질을 이용한 소수화 코팅 처리를 하였다. 콜로이드 감쇄기의 이력곡선은 서로 다른 소수화 코팅 처리가 된 입자의 혼합과 소수화 처리시의 분자간 거리에 의해서 조절이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 콜로이드 감쇄기의 에너지 소산양은 상이한 소수화 처리 정도와 서로 코팅처리량이 서로 다른 재료를 혼합함으로써 제어 할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 기존의 유압 감쇄기에서는 나타나지 않는 이러한 특징은 콜로이드 감쇄기가 충격 흡수 장치로 사용 가능하다는 사실을 입증한다.

This paper presents a systematic design and training procedure for the feed-forward back-propagation neural network (NN) modeling of both forward and inverse behavior of a rotary magnetorheological (MR) damper based on experimental data. For the forward damper model, with damper force as output, an optimization procedure demonstrates accurate training of the NN architecture with only current and velocity as input states. For the inverse damper model, with current as output, the absolute value of velocity and force are used as input states to avoid negative current spikes when tracking a desired damper force. The forward and inverse damper models are trained and validated experimentally, combining a limited number of harmonic displacement records, and constant and half-sinusoidal current records. In general the validation shows accurate results for both forward and inverse damper models, where the observed modeling errors for the inverse model can be related to knocking effects in the measured force due to the bearing plays between hydraulic piston and MR damper rod. Finally, the validated models are used to emulate pure viscous damping. Comparison of numerical and experimental results demonstrates good agreement in the post-yield region of the MR damper, while the main error of the inverse NN occurs in the pre-yield region where the inverse NN overestimates the current to track the desired viscous force.
