MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION DESIGN AND DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF AN ENHANCED RADIAL MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL VALVE WITH BOTH ANNULAR AND RADIAL FLOW PATHS

Multi-Objective Optimization Design and Dynamic Performance Analysis of an Enhanced Radial Magnetorheological Valve with Both Annular and Radial Flow Paths

This article proposes an analytical methodology for the optimal design of a magnetorheological (MR) valve constrained in a specific volume.The analytical optimization method is to identify geometric dimensions of the MR valve, and to determine whether the performance of the valve has undergone major improvement.Initially, an enhanced radial MR valv
