Performance Evaluation of Magnetorheological Damper Using Finite Element Analysis

Vinod Chauhan, Ashwani Kumar and Radhey Sham Magnetorheological (MR) dampers are semi-active controllable devices that utilize magnetorheological fluids (MRF) for generating governable force. The MR fluid contains magnetic micro-sized/nano-sized iron (Fe) particles, non-magnetic-based fluid, and some additives to mitigate sedimentation and agglomeration.
