Experimental and Analytical Studies on Magnetorheological Damper

Abstract:

This paper presents experimental and analytical study of magnetorheological damper. The experimental study has been conducted at 1.5 Hz frequency with varying current values by using hydraulic dynamic testing facility. The Bhingam MR damper model has been adopted to predict nonlinear hysteretic behaviour of magnetorheological (MR) damper and compare the results with experimental investigations. The result shows, good agreement between them.
