2. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

   Shock absorbers are an important part of car suspension designed to increase comfort, stability and overall safety. The shock absorber, produced with precision and engineering skills, has many important features. The most common type is a hydraulic shock absorber, which usually includes a piston, a cylinder, and an oil-filled chamber.

3. Magnetorheological damper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_damper

   A magnetorheological damper or magnetorheological shock absorber is a damper filled with magnetorheological fluid, which is controlled by a magnetic field, usually using an electromagnet. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This allows the damping characteristics of the shock absorber to be continuously controlled by varying the power of the electromagnet.

   Shock absorber: for bicycles with suspensions, a device that limits the rate at which suspension rebounds after absorbing an impact Side view mirror : aids in looking at the sides prior to moving slowly or turning to the left or to the right

5. MacPherson strut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut

   Yellow: Tubular housing containing shock absorber or damper Lower green: Vehicle frame or unibody member. The MacPherson strut is a type of automotive suspension system that uses the top of a telescopic damper as the upper steering pivot. It is widely used in the front suspension of modern vehicles.

6. 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.

7. Tuned mass damper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuned_mass_damper

   Mass dampers are frequently implemented with a frictional or hydraulic component that turns mechanical kinetic energy into heat, like an automotive shock absorber. Given a motor with mass m 1 attached via motor mounts to the ground, the motor vibrates as it operates and the soft motor mounts act as a parallel spring and damper, k 1 and c 1 .
