PRESSURIZED MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL FLUID DAMPERS

摘要

A magnetorheological (MR) fluid device including a pressurized MR liquid with an improved performance is provided. Also provided is a method for minimizing cavitation of a common magnetorheological device, comprising providing an MR fluid within the device with a pressure of at least 100psi. The device as provided minimizes cavitation in the device, and can be broadly used in the railway vehicle suspension system with excellent performance.
