Nonlinear dynamic responses of twin-tube hydraulic shock absorber

摘要

Basically on the multi-body system dynamics, the virtual prototype of the hydraulic shock absorber for the bench test is developed in the ADAMS environment. Dynamic behaviors of the absorber are studied by both computer simulation and real test. Numerical predictions of dynamic responses are produced by the established virtual prototype of the absorber and compared with experimental results. It has been shown from the comparison that the vibration behaviors of the prototype with hysteretic damping characteristics are considered to be more identical with the bench test results than those of the same prototype with piecewise linear damping properties are. The current virtual prototype of the shock absorber is correct and can be a developing terrace for the optimizing design of the absorber and matching capability of the whole car.
