Abstract: | In the active vibration control systems of electropneumatic type the air spring is often used not only as the elastic element of the system, but also as the compensation force generator, which caters for improved vibro-isolating effects. To provide this function of the air spring, it is necessary to know its characteristics in sufficient detail. In this paper the procedure of experimental estimation of these characteristics is described and the result is compared with the results of estimation based on theoretical considerations. The paper is completed by the graph of both types of characteristics. |
