Electromagnetic Shock Absorber for Vehicle Stability under High Wind Conditions New work done during the third quarter involved the analytical modeling of the electromagnetic shock absorber (EMSA) as well as its incorporation into the ¼ car Simulink model. The Simulink model utilizes an actual road profile as the disturbance for the system and the data is automatically exported into Microsoft Excel for post-processing. Also, FEM simulations of the Ford F800 truck model were performed to obtain mass, stiffness and damping properties. 3.2.2.1. New EMSA Model The new analytical model of the EMSA is based upon [1]. Shown in Figure 3.21 is a schematic representation for the EMSA. Figure 3.21 Schematic of Electromagnetic Shock Absorber (Obtained from Ref. [1]) The operation of this EMSA is very similar to the original proposed model. The main difference is that this new model utilizes two permanent magnet (PM) assemblies surrounded by a moving coil assembly TRACC/TFHRC Y1Q3 Page 65
