Analytical Investigation of MR Damper for Vibration Control: A Review

Abstract

In this paper, a vibration control system with magnetorheological (MR) damper investigation is reviewed. At first a MR damper is investigated analytically using various finite element method software and the performance is investigated using experimental. The MR Dampers are designed and modelled for a scaled down setup. The application is in seismic resistance of buildings, automobile, physical and biological. Finally, the damper is investigated using various technique and methods used to study the performance is reviewed. This device reduces the vibration in both active and semi active control system effectively.
