the viscous damping
1viscous damping — a vibrating body is said to be viscously damped when it encounters a force that is proportional to the magnitude of the velocity of the body, in the opposite direction to that of the velocity of the body. Hydraulic shock absorbers display forms… …

3damping — damp·ing (dămʹpĭng) n. The capacity built into a mechanical or electrical device to prevent excessive correction and the resulting instability or oscillatory conditions. * * * In physics, the restraint of vibratory motion, such as mechanical… …
4damping rate — the ratio of the amount of viscous damping present in a system to that required for critical damping …

6damping — 1) (energy absorption) a shock absorber characteristic which is determined by the orifice pattern of the shock absorber. Dashpot (spike force), conventional (constant force), progressive (increasing force) and self compensating (various force)… …
7critical damping — 1) the minimum amount of viscous damping required in a linear system to prevent the displacement of the system from passing the equilibrium position upon returning from an initial displacement. 2) the minimum damping that results in non periodic… …

9Active suspension — Active or adaptive suspension is an automotive technology that controls the vertical movement of the wheels with an onboard system rather than the movement being determined entirely by the road surface. The system virtually eliminates body roll… …
