Enhancement of Shock Absorption Using Hybrid SMA-MRF Damper by Complementary Operation

A hybrid damper concept is presented here using a combination of a Magnetorheological (MR) Fluid (MRF) and Shape Memory Alloy (SMA)-based energy dissipation. A demonstration is performed utilizing the shear operating mode of the MRF and the one-way effect of the SMA. The damping performance of diffe...
