A considerable amount of vibration energy in automotive is worth of being harvested through power dissipation using regenerative suspension systems. In this study, the vehicle dynamics and energy dissipated from a Multi-State Switchable Damper (MSSD) based suspension for various vibration dynamic modes are assessed. Quantification of the energy dissipated in a MSSD is achieved through an experimental test at laboratory environment. The test results showed a linear relationship between the dissipated power and the damping modes.
