2. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

   A strut is a structural component that combines the shock absorber with other suspension parts like the coil spring and steering knuckle into one compact unit [14] Unlike a shock absorber, a strut has a reinforced body and stem.

   The Tilting Suspension System [27] (also known as the Leaning Suspension System) is not a different type or geometry of construction; moreover, it is a technology addition to the conventional suspension system. This kind of suspension system mainly consists of independent suspension (e.g., MacPherson strut, A-arm (double wishbone)). With the ...

4. Strut - Wikipedia

   An example of an active unit would be a coilover design in an automotive suspension. The coilover combines a shock absorber and a spring in a single unit. A common form of automotive suspension strut in an automobile is the MacPherson strut. MacPherson struts are often purchased by the automakers in sets of four completed sub-assemblies: These ...

5. Coilover - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coilover

   A mono-tube coilover is a single piston and rod assembly in a damping case in which both compression and rebound occur. A larger mono-tube shock will be able to displace more hydraulic fluid, providing a more sensitive response to small suspension movements than twin-tube shocks. A twin-tube coilover is more complex than a mono-tube assembly.

6. MacPherson strut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut

   Unibody construction also distributes suspension stresses. [14] The strut will usually carry both the coil spring, on which the body is suspended, and the shock absorber, which is usually in the form of a cartridge mounted within the strut (see coilover). The strut can also have the steering arm built into the lower outer portion. The whole ...

7. Active suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_suspension

   An active suspension is a type of automotive suspension that uses an onboard control system to control the vertical movement of the vehicle's wheels and axles relative to the chassis or vehicle frame, rather than the conventional passive suspension that relies solely on large springs to maintain static support and dampen the vertical wheel movements caused by the road surface.
