Wheelbase stretches at 3,135 mm long.The GLS comes with the enhanced Airmatic air suspension system with
With a drag coefficient of 0.23, the vehicle boasts best-in-class aerodynamics.
which is quite impressive considering the hybrid powertrain and battery pack.There’s a new rear suspension
The Toyota Vios GR-S adds a few goodies like a reprogrammed CVT with 10 virtual ratios, sports-tuned suspension
3. And because the suspension system is much more complex and intertwined, unless the initial tread shape, suspension stiffness, damping coefficient, etc. are exactly within a very tight tolerance, the deterioration characteristic of the suspension system itself is chaotic, ...
@TeslaTruckClub Do they both seat 5 adults? Variable ride height with air suspension (off-road and efficient on roads) Drag coefficient (important for long distance trips) Camping mode (important for many people) Bed cover (Tesla had the auto roller cover)
.@beckie_xvibz @authorsahunt Ideal whelmage is a tricky math problem, like solving for the ideal damping coefficient of a car suspension.
@DougDeMuro Im a student doing a project on the Aston Martin DB10 using one of your videos. I need the spring constant and damping coefficient for the suspension system, and to estimate that I need some info about you. Would you mind sharing your height and weight with me?
I aint peterpan @Ms_Shawty3 but I am fred flinstone and NO u cant make my bedrock! (its got a suspension you see - high damping coefficient)
My answer to What is damping coefficient in terms of a cars suspension? And what is its role? https://t.co/w8arAUvNSF
Magnetorheological dampers have an electronically controllable damping coefficient. So it is possible to electronically control its damping characteristics under various circumstances, in real-time. Magnetorheological fluids comprise of micro-scale ferromagnetic particles. With the application of magnetic field, the particles tend to form chains as shown below : Such chains tend to resist and restrict fluid motion. Thus it has a controllable yield stress and hence its damping characteristics can be controlled in real-time, using an electromagnet. Vehicle suspensions are usually designed with a compromise between comfort and road holding/handling. Low damping coefficients give a better comfort at the cost of road holding i.e. there is an increased variation in tire force, which is not desirable. Slightly higher damping coefficient give a better road grip but aren’t really comfortable. With controllable damping using MR dampers, this compromise gets removed, thus resulting in overall better performance.
You can't get it anywhere. It is kind of a trade secret. OEMs often benchmark competitors to acquire this kind of data but again that their property and confidential. Some third party agencies also do this benchmarking. However the sell the data and as an individual they won't entertain your request in this regard. The problem is that one needs a complicated experimental setup to measure such parameters. Damping ratio, spring stiffness, damping coefficient, etc all vary depending on the loading frequency and in extreme cases the amplitude. So shakers are used to load the part in an experimental setup. The input given is usually a sine sweep or random sweep an the output data is obtained from which these curves are processed. In short, it is a significant investment to do such an experiment. Nobody will handover such data for free.
Lets start with a scenario….. Suppose there are 3 persons P1, P2 and P3 as marked in the figure. All have to reach the center of the blue ring ( ,Steady State Value,). Now to complete the errand all three get into 3 different airplanes : Over damped (O), Critically damped (C) and Under damped(U). Now I would like you to pay attention to both the time and displacement axis considering the displacement axis as the vertical distance of planes from ground. Over Damped,: The O airplane takes off very slowly and hence has a very high value of ,Rise Time, as compared to other two systems. Rise time being defined as time taken to reach the level of center of the blue denoted by dotted line in the figure. Also due to some navigational anomalies it never reaches its destination and stays below the required height. Critically Damped,: The C plane is better than the O and almost (asymptotically) reaches the target and that too at a better speed and less time than O. Under Damped,: The U plane pilot is very enthusiastic and in its excitement goes at very high speed hence goes pass the target and that too in very less time (Rise Time) as compared to other two planes. Releasing his mistake it again comes back but again enthusiasm kicks in and he again passes the destination this time in opposite direction. This process continues until a specific time until he is settled. We call this time as the ,Settling Time, and after this time he finally reaches his destination. So in our little story the three paths takes by the planes represents the 3 time responses of Second order system when subjected to unit step response. Main difference lies in their, Rise Time, and ,Settling time, and final steady state value achieved which dictate various design parameters in control systems. Mathematical Explanation: Any general second order equation can be represented as: with general solutions as: Importance,: Many complex higher order systems can be reduced to second order systems and analysis can be performed. Applications,: Analysis of active suspension in performed by studying various parameters of systems like stiffness, damping coefficient settling time etc. They form the science for which we pay ridiculous amount of money while buying a Mercedes or BMW. I hope it helped…. Cheers!!!
Try getting on contact directly with Whirlpool or Frigidaire and they *may* point you to their suppliers or stats. It may be enough of a trade secret that you would have to directly order the parts and test them. As far as I am aware, that type of number set is not just floating around.
Contact an expert regarding your application. Put together your technical specifications for the physical installation, damping, and any budget constraints.
Damping coefficient in vehicle suspension In vehicle suspension it plays a major role in terms of dynamic loading conditions, vibration, shocks in spring, comfortness in various road conditions. Here Cs is the damping coefficient, It is calculated for both front and rear suspensions of a car when compression and rebound happen in the suspension system. There are 3 systems used in suspension passive, active and semiactive, in this semiactive is used for betterment, it provides desirable performance generally enhanced in the semi active mode without requiring large power sources and expensive hardware. Whereas in passive and active, performance limitation and high power sources, many sensors, complex actuators such as servo valves are required respectively. Typical Matlab analysis: In commercial trucks and buses, Driver’s oscillatory comfort: Spring stiffness and shock absorber damping coefficient must be low. Active safety terms : Spring stiffness must be low with high damping coefficient Minimum wheel motion: Spring stiffness and shock absorber damping coefficient must be high. Damping coefficient and its role The material property that indicates whether a material will bounce back or return energy to a system is called damping coefficient. High damping coefficient reduce the unwanted vibrations, shock, noise and swallow the energy. So that materials with high damping coefficients are used in applications of shock absorption, vibration control, noise reduction, and dissipating increased heat. Thank you!
