Optimal Current Value Estimation for an Automotive Magneto Rheological (MR) Fluid Damper Actuation

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a finite element analysis of a Magneto Rheological (MR) damper is carried over. A finite element model was constructed to analyse and examine the MR damper. The optimal current value for achieving the required damping force is found out. The results of the work can be used to develop more efficient and reliable MR damper, thereby reducing the time involved in prototyping the product.
