The article presents results of experimental identification of MR (magnetorheological) damper model for an off-road vehicle. Original shock-absorbers of the vehicle were replaced by suspension MR dampers supplied by a dedicated measurement and control system. The vehicle includes several sensors which allow to observe electric currents controlling MR dampers, forces generated in the front vehicle suspension columns and other sensors which measure deflection of these suspension parts. The front part of the semi-active suspension was tested using laboratory setup with vibration mechanical exciters generating sinusoidally variable excitation at frequency equal to 12 Hz. MR dampers were directly controlled by peripheral electronic units generating different constant currents equal to 0, 0.11 and 0.37 A. As a result, evaluated force-velocity characteristics and analysis of MR damper behaviour in the target vehicle were carried out. Further steps of analysis included mathematical description of the selected MR damper using several types of MR damper models, i.e.: Bingham and hyperbolic tangent function models as well as their variants including first-order output dynamics. It was shown that the dynamic model based on hyperbolic tangent function offers the best fitness to the response of the actual MR damper with respect to the mean-squared error.
