Abstract

Content: The force x velocity graph is the most used tool for suspension damper analysis. This approach hides important information regarding the bleeds / spring / orifice combination. This paper describes the energy analysis, comparing two different damper suppliers, with comfort measurements using B&K Human Response Vibration Meter and MTS single channel Four Post system.
