A Semi‐active piezoelectric friction damper

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2014
SummaryThis research investigates the development of a semi‐active piezoelectric friction damper for controlling the seismic response of large‐scale structures. The proposed device is made of Duplex steel and leads to high friction capacity, which can be developed either in passive or semi‐active modes.

Modelling and design of a dual channel magnetorheological damper [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
© Cranfield UniversityA limitation with the current analytical models for predicting the performance of a magnetorheological (MR) damper is that they fail to capture the hysteretic variation of force versus velocity variation correctly.

Semi-active control of a nonlinear quarter-car model of hyperloop capsule vehicle with Skyhook and Mixed Skyhook-Acceleration Driven Damper controller

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
A suspension system is one of the integral parts of a hyperloop capsule train, which is used to isolate the car-body from bogie vibration to provide a safer and comfortable service.

Semi-Active Control of Post-tensioned Steel Frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
After the Northridge 1994 earthquake it was found that failures in steel frame buildings were mainly concentrated in beam-column connections. This prompted researchers to work on improvements, mainly focussed on increasing the rotational ductility ...

Optimized Fuzzy Skyhook Control for Semi-Active Vehicle Suspension with New Inverse Model of Magnetorheological Fluid Damper

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
To improve the performance of vehicle suspension, this paper proposes a semi-active vehicle suspension with a magnetorheological fluid (MRF) damper. We designed an optimized fuzzy skyhook controller with grey wolf optimizer (GWO) algorithm base on a new ...

Enhancing Friction Pendulum Isolation Systems Using Passive and Semi-Active Dampers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Friction pendulum systems (FPSs) are a common solution for isolating civil engineering structures under ground movements. The result is a base-isolated structure in which the base exhibits low shear stiffness in such a way that the input energy of the ...

Experimental Evaluation of Modified Groundhook Car Suspension with Fast Magnetorheological Damper

open access: yesActuators, 2022
The car suspension setting is always a trade-off between comfort and handling. The semi-active damper system seems to be an option for reducing the compromise between the two demands.
