Semi-active rotary damper for a heavy off-road wheeled vehicle

The development, simulation and laboratory testing of two-state discrete adjustable semi-active rotary dampers for heavy off-road wheeled vehicles, which is a joint venture between the South African based company Reumech Ermetek and Horstman Defence Systems from the UK, is described.

description The development, simulation and laboratory testing of two-state discrete adjustable semi-active rotary dampers for heavy off-road wheeled vehicles, which is a joint venture between the South African based company Reumech Ermetek and Horstman Defence Systems from the UK, is described. A brief history of semi-active damping and rotary dampers is given, after which the working principle and features of combining the two technologies is outlined. Three dimensional simulation is used to determine the ride comfort gains achievable with semi-active rotary dampers compared to the conventional translational dampers currently used on the vehicle under consideration. Simulations are performed over different terrains, including the APG track and discrete obstacles. Semi-active rotary dampers were integrated on the 6×6 GV6 Self-propelled Gun Howitzer in order to quantify the improvements in ride comfort, transient response and handling of the vehicle as indicated by the simulation results. The control system, control strategies and characterisation tests, which includes determination of on and off characteristics as well as valve response times, are discussed.
