Within the context of vehicle suspension component characterization, that of shock absorbers is one of the more difficult to achieve, yet it is a very critical factor in the prediction of vehicle dynamic behaviour. Strongly non-linear output force functions are always linked to a frequency-dependent behaviour. Using the internal fluid-dynamic phenomenon with respect to a motorcycle shock absorber, different physical models of increasing complexity are presented: using these models it is possible to evaluate the importance of different factors, for example oil compressibility or oil inertia. Comparisons with experimental data confirm the validity of these models

Abstract This paper presents a numerical method for simulating the thermal and fluid-dynamic behavior of hermetic compressors in the whole compressor domain. The model of fluid flow is developed by integrating transient one-dimensional conservation equations of continuity, momentum and energy through all of the elements from suction line to discharge line. The model describing thermal behavior is based on heat balance in the components such as muffler, connecting tubes and orifices. The calculation of the thermodynamic and transport properties for different refrigerants at various conditions has been considered, and some numerical results for a hermetic compressor are presented. The present study has demonstrated that the numerical simulation is a fest and reliable tool for compressor design.

In this paper, a numerical-experimental procedure is proposed for an identification of parameters in cam transmissions. Models with lumped parameters are defined specifically for cam transmissions. Experimental tests are carried out on main components of a cam transmission in order to estimate the values of mass, damping and stiffness lumped parameters through a low-cost easy-operation procedure. Experimental tests are also carried out in order to characterize the dynamic behaviour of a whole cam transmission. A comparison of numerical and experimental results is used in order to calibrate the values of lumped parameters. Experimental tests have been carried out by means of suitable test-beds for cams that have been built specifically at University of Brescia and at LARM in Cassino as alternative testing solutions.

In order to explore the relationship between the surface topography parameters and friction properties of a rough contact interface under fluid dynamic pressure lubrication conditions, friction experiments were carried out. The three-dimensional surface topography of specimens was measured and characterized with a profile microscopy measuring system and scanning electron microscope. The friction coefficient showed a trend of decreasing first and then increasing with the increase in some surface topography parameters at lower pressure, such as the surface height arithmetic mean Sa, surface height distribution kurtosis Sku, surface volume average volume Vvv, and surface center area average void volume Vvc, which are the ISO 25178 international standard parameters. The effects of surface topographic parameters on friction were analyzed and the wear mechanism of the worn surface was presented. The wear characteristics of the samples were mainly characterized as strain fatigue, grinding, and scraping. The results provide a theoretical basis for the functional characterization of surface topography.
