In this paper, the dynamic performance of the single rod magnetorheological damper (MRD) without accumulator in different working status is researched, which is a new type of MRD developed by us to apply in the environment of explosion and shock. It is concluded that there is no offset force in the new MRD. The maximum damping force and energy absorption capability increase non-linearly with the excitation current and piston’s velocity. The mechanical model of this type MRD is proposed. By comparison of the results of tests with simulation, it is proved that the mechanical model proposed in this paper can simulate the dynamic performance of the new MRD accurately.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
