  2. Regenerative shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_shock_absorber

    This type of system uses a linear motor/generator consisting of a stack of permanent magnets and coils to generate electricity. This system was further developed at Tufts University and has been licensed to Electric Truck, LLC. Preliminary data suggests 20% to 70% of the energy normally lost in the suspension can be recaptured with this system.

  3. Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Electronic...

    TEMS (Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension) is a shock absorber that is electronically controlled (Continuous Damping Control) based on multiple factors, and was built and exclusively used by Toyota for selected products during the 1980s and 1990s (first introduced on the Toyota Soarer in 1983 [1]).

  4. Damper winding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_winding

    Bars and rings of the damper (amortisseur) winding of an AC generator (General Electric, early 20th century). Note the gaps in the cage along the quadrature axes. The damper winding (also amortisseur winding [1]) is a squirrel-cage-like winding on the rotor of a typical synchronous electric machine. It is used to dampen the transient ...

  5. MagneRide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MagneRide

    MagneRide is an automotive adaptive suspension with magnetorheological damper system developed by the Delphi Automotive corporation, [1] [2] that uses magnetically controlled dampers, or shock absorbers, for a highly adaptive ride.

  6. Steering damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_damper

    An electronically variable damper uses a radial damper with hydraulic fluid that flows freely at low speeds, allowing easy turning, while restricting flow at higher speeds when more damping is necessary, as determined by the ECM (Electronic Control Module). A prime example of this is HPSD (Honda Progressive Steering Damper). [citation needed]

  7. Damper (flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_(flow)

    This damper can switch the electrical power to control additional "slave" dampers, minimizing the electrical load on the damper's control circuitry and power transformer. A zone damper (also known as a Volume Control Damper or VCD) is a specific type of damper used to control the flow of air in an HVAC heating or cooling system. In order to ...

  8. Shock absorber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber

    A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses. It does this by converting the kinetic energy of the shock into another form of energy (typically heat ) which is then dissipated.

  9. Amplidyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplidyne

    The signal to be amplified is applied to the generator's field winding, and its output voltage is an amplified copy of the field current. The amplidyne was used in industry in high power servo and control systems, to amplify low power control signals to control powerful electric motors, for example. It is now mostly obsolete.
