  • Magnetorheological Fluid Technology for Vehicle Applications
    Magnetorheological Fluid Technology for Vehicle Applications Jim Toscano, Shigeru Shutto Lord Corporation, United States of America Abstract In recent years devices and systems using magnetorheological (MR) fluid technology have been commercialized across a wide range of industries, the most prominent and promising being automotive applications. Commercially successful MR fluid systems and devices have been developed for primary suspension in passenger automobiles; driver’s seat suspension in off-highway, construction and agricultural equipment; and steer-by-wire operator control in industrial, off-highway and marine vehicles. Today, thousands of vehicles are in operation and more than 100,000 MR dampers, shock absorbers and brakes are in use. For automotive platform applications alone, anticipated annual growth in demand for MR devices is more than 1 million. MR Fluid may be tailored for specific applications, provides high strength and is durable and robust. MR Fluid is highly developed with fundamental material data and device design and models and is backed by extensive experience-based guidelines. This paper summarizes current and developing commercial applications of MR Fluid Technology in automotive and vehicular applications. Keywords: Magnetorheological, MR fluid, MagneRide, Tactile Feedback Device 1. Introduction 2. Description of MR Fluid Technology Since the first patent was issued to inventor Jacob Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are materials that Rabinow in the 1940s, magnetorheological (MR) fluids respond to a magnetic field with a dramatic change in have remained mostly a laboratory curiosity with little rheological behavior. These fluids can reversibly change practical use. In the late 1980s and 1990s, however, instantaneously from a free-flowing liquid to a semi-solid researchers began to get serious about developing the with controllable yield strength when exposed to a commercial viability of MR fluids, especially when other magnetic field.
