Design of electromagnetic shock absorbers
Source abstract
Abstract
Automobiles and trucks have shock absorbers to damp out the vibration experienced due to roughness of the roads. However, energy in conventional shock absorbers gets dissipated as heat and is not used in any way. Regenerative electromagnetic shock absorbers provide a means for recovering the energy dissipated in shock absorbers. Two configurations of regenerative electromagnetic shock absorber have been developed for this purpose: a linear device and a rotary device. Performance of these shocks in a laboratory test stand and in a small all terrain vehicle is described.
