When the suspension deforms, damping force is generated as the piston of the shock absorber moves, but a time difference occurs before the large hydraulic damping force rises. At the same time the frictional force in the shock absorber is playing an important role in generating effective damping force against deformation of the suspension, the generated force itself is small but its response is high. The frictional force in the shock absorber occurs in reciprocating motion in various speed ranges from amplitude of less than one millimeter to larger amplitudes, its behavior changes dynamically and is non-linear. Recent studies have revealed that controlling the friction is more important than reducing it for improvement of the performance. Because of this we have investigated the dynamic friction characteristics of shock absorber oil and sliding parts, by the means of an own developed device that can measure the speed dependence of friction force in reciprocating motion with high accuracy.

    The result of our analysis shows that friction dissipates energy at a speed level of 0,002m/s where hydraulic dissipation is not working yet. By knowing this phenomenon, we have developed different kind of oil types in order to generate various dynamic friction characteristics.

    The influence of our developed oil types on the ride and handling performance was tested and analyzed in different vehicles. Subjective assessments and objective measurement show the vehicle performance improvement, which can be generated by using more advanced oil types.
