Computer Aided Valve Design of Shock Absorbers Used in Vehicles

Abstract

The valve design of a rear twin tube shock absorber belongs to a light commercial vehicle whose damper characteristics already known has been realized by the help of a computer program called “Dr”, and compared with the actual application results. The program gives user results about the valve parts to get the right target characteristics. After obtaining the necessary parts’ results, the needed damping performance test has been performed by the shock absorber, which has been conflated according to the program. The actual results and target characteristics were compared. ”Dr” program enables the user to select the correct parts to be used in valve system by detecting every effect on target characteristics diagram. By comparing the overall effect of the parts selected, shock absorber valve system is conflated according to the valve components obtained from the computer program.

An Experimental Stress Analysis of a Jib Crane

“…However, confidence on computer based analysis will develop by comparing these two methods by the time [2]. It can be said that computer analysis will be used in place of experimental studies in the future but, nowadays, current standards still require real observing results at the working conditions [3]. Computer based technologies can be evaluated in terms of its reliability with this comparison studies [4].…”

An Integration of Design and Production for Woven Fabrics Using Genetic Algorithm

“…The pattern of the woven fabric is illustrated through the layout of the different colors of the warp and weft yarn. Therefore, the application of computer-aided design (CAD) (Dan, 2011) (Wang et al, 2011) (Gerdemeli et al, 2011) (Mazzetti et al, 2011) to simulated woven-fabric appearance and to the other aspects has been a major interesting research in recent years and various hardware and software systems are now available on the market for widely commercial applications. Until these systems became available, a considerable amount of time and money had been needed to show designers' ideas of fabric design in pattern (fabric sample) form.…”
