Structural Design and Controllability of Magnetorheological Grease Buffers under Impact Loading.

Shock loads can pose a great threat to personnel or instruments, and efficient control of the buffering process is an effective means of reducing damage from shock energy. In this paper, magneto-rheological grease was used as the internal controllable material of the buffer to address the turbulence and settling problems of conventional magneto-rheological fluid. A bending and folding back magnetic circuit is proposed, and the magnetic circuit simulation was verified.
