Optimal Design of Magneto-Rhological Damper

Article Preview

Abstract:

For the complex nonlinear property and a lot of regulatory parameter, it is difficult to design a reasonable magneto-rheological (MR) damper by simply process or experience. To solve this problem a structural optimization has been presented in this article. Three stages have been discussed in the article. By calculate the flux of MR fluid based on the yield stress of MR fluid, selected common design targets such as maximal output damping force, dynamic range and consult volume of damper has been presented in formula respectively with the parameter according to damper structure. By approximate the magnetic circle, the power of excitation also has been presented as an expression of structure parameter. An optimum method named multi-goal attach has been applied to solve the optimum problem. Finally some confirmation and experiment results have been presented. The experiment results indicated that the method presented in the article was effectively.
