Design, dynamic modeling and testing of a novel MR damper for cable-stayed climbing robots under wind loads.

To increase the adaptability of bridge construction equipment in high-altitude settings, this study examines a magnetorheological (MR) damper designed for cable-stayed climbing robots. Initially, a novel damper incorporating a spring-MR fluid combination and three magnetic circuit units is developed. A robot-cable-wind coupling dynamic model is subsequently formulated via Hamilton's principle, based on force analysis.
