Dynamic Model of MR Dampers Based on a Hysteretic Magnetic Circuit
Figure 5
Hysteresis curves of steel parts in the MR damper predicted by the proposed model (lines) and FEM (symbols) under a low-frequency (0.2 Hz) sinusoidal electric current excitation (lumped parameter model solver: relative error tolerance , absolute error tolerance ; nonlinear residual of FEM solver: ).
