Semi Active Vibration Control of Quarter Car
Model Using Magnetorheological Fluid
Damper
Introduction
• Types of suspension system
1. Passive System
2. Active System
3. Semi-Active System
What is MR Fluid?
• Fluid suspended with ferrous particles
• Damping force is proportional to the applied magnetic
field
• Same efficiency as that of active system consuming less
power
Methodology
• Quarter car modeling
• Where m1= 250 kg, m2 = 1300 kg, K = 650000 N/m, C =
800 Ns/m, k = 110000 N/m
• To calculate Frh:
1. Conventional Damper
Where c = 6000 Ns/m
2. MR damper
For calculating the damping force exerted by MR damper
we have used Bouc Wen Model
c0 =5300 Ns/m,
c1 = 93000 Ns/m,
k0 = 1400 N/m,
k1 = 540 N/m,
α = 96300 N/m,
β = 2000000 m-2,
γ = 2000000 m-2,
n = 2,
δ = 207,
x0 = 0

Conclusion
• This paper presents a new approach of controlling the
response of a quarter car vehicle model traversing a
rough road with semi-active MR damper suspensions.
• The MR damper performance is sought to be better as
compared to the conventional passive damper system.
